Scanned

3 of 7 checks could not complete. The site may be unreachable or blocking automated scans, so the results below cover only what could be checked. Try a rescan later.

NIS2 and GDPR posture

NIS2 outside view
Not assessed
GDPR outside view
Not assessed

Both readouts depend on the site's pages, which could not be loaded in this scan.

Priority findings

No critical or high findings. These medium findings are worth fixing next.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Medium

      No MTA-STS Policy

      MTA-STS enforces TLS for email delivery

      What to do: Implement MTA-STS to prevent downgrade attacks

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Medium

      SSL Certificate Expires Within 90 Days

      SSL certificate expires in 57 days

      What to do: Plan SSL certificate renewal

  3. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • Medium

      DNSSEC Not Enabled

      DNSSEC is not configured for this domain

      What to do: Enable DNSSEC to prevent DNS spoofing attacks

      • CAPEC-142
      • RFC 4033
      • RFC 4035
    • Medium

      Domain Transfer Lock Not Enabled

      Domain can be transferred without authorization

      What to do: Enable domain transfer lock for security

  4. Network security

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

    • Medium

      Service Exposed: SSH

      Port 22 (SSH) is publicly accessible - SSH - Secure but can be brute-forced

      What to do: Review if public access to SSH is necessary

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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
  • 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

The company targets online retailers and businesses requiring legally compliant IT and e-commerce documentation. Its business model revolves around subscription packages and digital legal tools, positioning itself as a market leader with awards and a broad service portfolio. The presence of partner initiatives like 'Fairness im Handel' indicates a strong ecosystem and commitment to ethical business practices. The website's content and tools suggest a focus on scalability and customer self-service, enhancing client retention and market reach. No parent or subsidiary companies are identified, indicating an independent operation with medium company size.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses obfuscation techniques for email addresses, reducing spam risk. However, it lacks publicly visible detailed security policies or incident response contacts, which could be improved for transparency. The use of Matomo analytics reflects a privacy-aware approach. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Security headers are partially implemented or not explicitly visible, suggesting room for enhancement. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from formalized policies and additional header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Implement and verify security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a public security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and mobile optimization to maintain excellent user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom Blickreif CMS with modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery 3.6.0 and FontAwesome 6.5.1. It integrates Matomo for analytics, indicating a preference for privacy-friendly tracking. Hosting is provided by SchlundTech, a reputable German hosting provider. Performance is moderate with deferred script loading and optimized assets. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, canonical links, and structured navigation. Accessibility is good with ARIA attributes and skip navigation links. The site is mobile responsive and uses modern CSS and JavaScript techniques. Technical risks are low, but security header implementation could be improved.
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.
