IT-Security ist Pflicht is a specialized IT security consulting business focused on enabling companies to meet the criteria for cyber insurance through comprehensive cybersecurity measures. The company leverages its expertise in ISO/IEC 27001 and BSI IT-Grundschutz to provide workshops, assessments, and implementation support for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). Their market position is that of a trusted small enterprise with a professional online presence targeting businesses seeking cyber insurance readiness. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with the Divi theme, showing moderate performance and good mobile optimization.

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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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 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. 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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
  • 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 operates in the technology sector, specifically in cybersecurity consulting and cyber insurance facilitation. Their business model revolves around providing assessments, workshops, and external IT security officer services to help clients implement ISO/IEC 27001 compliant security frameworks. The target audience includes small to medium enterprises looking to secure cyber insurance. The website indicates partnerships with domains such as plesnik.de and plesnik.hinweis.digital, suggesting a networked approach to service delivery. The company emphasizes trust and compliance, leveraging certifications and practical experience to differentiate itself in a competitive market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive information. However, the absence of certain security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options suggests room for improvement. There is no visible incident response contact or vulnerability disclosure policy, which could enhance trust and preparedness. The lack of cookie consent mechanisms may pose GDPR compliance risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but would benefit from implementing additional headers and formalizing incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate XSS and related attacks.
  2. Add X-Content-Type-Options and X-Frame-Options headers to improve browser security.
  3. Introduce a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to enhance GDPR compliance.
  4. Publish a security.txt file and provide clear incident response contact information.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins to avoid vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern CMS platform (WordPress) using the Divi theme, which provides flexibility and a professional design. The use of lazy loading for images improves performance, though overall speed is moderate. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design elements. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with ARIA roles and better keyboard navigation support. Hosting is provided by webgo.de, as indicated by the nameservers. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal user tracking.
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.
