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

Jazzmeile Thüringen is a regional cultural festival organization dedicated to promoting jazz music throughout the German state of Thüringen. It operates under the patronage of the Thüringer Staatskanzlei and organizes events year-round, including seasonal jazz festivals and workshops. The website serves as an information portal for upcoming events and partners with various cultural and governmental institutions. Technically, the site is built on the Contao CMS platform, utilizing common JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Colorbox. The site is moderately optimized for mobile devices and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Security posture is moderate; HTTPS is assumed but no explicit security headers were detected, and no incident response or security policies are publicly available. Privacy compliance is basic, with a privacy policy present but no visible cookie consent mechanism. WHOIS data is incomplete, limiting trust from a domain registration perspective. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professional but could improve security and privacy transparency.

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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 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';…

  2. 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

    • 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

  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

Jazzmeile Thüringen occupies a niche cultural market as a state-supported jazz festival organizer, targeting jazz enthusiasts and cultural audiences in Thüringen and beyond. Its business model is non-profit and event-driven, relying on partnerships with cultural foundations, government bodies, and sponsors. The website reflects a stable partnership ecosystem with multiple cultural institutions and governmental agencies. Revenue streams likely include sponsorships, ticket sales, and public funding. The organization demonstrates consistent branding and content quality, positioning itself as a key regional cultural player. Growth opportunities may include enhanced digital engagement and expanded event offerings. The lack of detailed business registration data online suggests a small to medium-sized entity focused on cultural impact rather than commercial scale.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS presumably enabled but lacks visible HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options. No security or incident response policies are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present. The absence of cookie consent mechanisms may pose GDPR compliance risks. No forms collecting sensitive data were detected on the homepage, reducing immediate risk exposure. The incomplete WHOIS data reduces transparency and trustworthiness from a domain registration perspective. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing standard web security headers, publishing security policies, and enhancing privacy compliance mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTPS with strong SSL/TLS configuration and verify via external tools.
  2. Add standard HTTP security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Introduce a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with GDPR and improve privacy transparency.
  5. Obtain and publish complete WHOIS domain registration data or use a registrar that provides transparent WHOIS information.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Contao Open Source CMS, a PHP-based content management system, and uses jQuery and jQuery UI libraries along with Colorbox for UI enhancements. The HTML structure is valid and includes meta tags for viewport and robots. The site is mobile optimized with a responsive menu system. Performance is moderate with some optimization potential. SEO is basic with meta description missing content and no Open Graph or Twitter Card tags detected. Accessibility is basic with skip navigation links and ARIA attributes in some places. Hosting provider and SSL certificate details are not available from the provided data. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal user tracking. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from modern SEO and performance enhancements.
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.
