Risk levelHigh

0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

WHdI e.V. is a German non-profit association representing craft guilds primarily in Berlin and Hamburg. The organization focuses on fostering a strong community among craftsmen, providing valuable information, supporting vocational training, and offering consumer advice. The website is professionally designed using TYPO3 CMS and modern frontend technologies, with good mobile optimization and clear navigation. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and secure login forms, though security headers are not evident and could be improved. Privacy compliance is basic but present, with a privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism accessible via the imprint page. WHOIS data is unavailable, which slightly reduces domain trustworthiness, but the overall business credibility and website professionalism mitigate this concern. The site is free from adult or questionable content and is fully accessible without WAF or blocking mechanisms.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  2. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet · found on this site
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

WHdI e.V. operates as an important entity within the craft guild sector in Germany, targeting guild members, consumers, and vocational trainees. Its business model centers on community support, information dissemination, and advocacy rather than commercial sales. The association maintains a regional presence with offices in Berlin and Hamburg and leverages partnerships such as handwerk.berlin. The website's regular news updates and clear contact channels indicate active engagement with its audience. The use of TYPO3 CMS and Piwik analytics reflects a moderate level of digital maturity. The organization appears stable but would benefit from enhanced transparency in domain registration and expanded security policies.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and secure login forms, indicating a baseline security posture. However, the absence of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Privacy compliance is addressed through a privacy policy and cookie consent, but no explicit security or incident response policies are published. The lack of WHOIS data transparency is a minor concern for trust but does not indicate malicious intent. Overall, the security posture is moderate with recommendations to implement additional headers and formal security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish explicit security and incident response policies to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Ensure all forms have CSRF tokens and input validation to prevent injection attacks.
  4. Improve WHOIS data transparency by ensuring registrar and registrant information is publicly available.
  5. Regularly update TYPO3 CMS and all dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and extensible content management system, combined with Foundation CSS and jQuery for frontend responsiveness and interactivity. Piwik/Matomo analytics is used for privacy-conscious visitor tracking. The site loads a compressed JavaScript bundle and multiple CSS files, indicating optimization efforts. Mobile optimization is good, and navigation is clear and structured. Performance is moderate, with no evident blocking or errors. The absence of advanced accessibility features suggests an area for future improvement. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and accessibility improvements.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
