jugendschutz.net is a German non-profit organization dedicated to youth protection on the internet. The website provides comprehensive educational content, awareness campaigns, and mechanisms for reporting violations related to youth safety online. It targets parents, educators, and professionals involved in child and youth protection. The organization holds a leading position in Germany for internet youth protection and operates with a professional and consistent brand presence.
Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS and leverages modern front-end technologies such as Bootstrap, jQuery, and Slick Carousel. It is optimized for mobile devices and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and rich content. The site uses HTTPS and Matomo analytics, indicating a focus on privacy and security.
From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses secure forms but lacks some advanced security headers and a published security.txt file. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Privacy compliance is strong with a comprehensive privacy policy and GDPR adherence. However, no explicit incident response or security contact information is published.
Overall, the website is trustworthy, professionally maintained, and safe for general audiences. The missing WHOIS data is a concern but does not outweigh the legitimacy signals from the website content and imprint. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing vulnerability disclosure information, and improving incident response 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

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.

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.

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

The page loads a script from a compromised source

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.

Business context
Business profile
jugendschutz.net operates as a government-supported non-profit entity focused on internet youth protection in Germany. Its business model centers on public service, education, and complaint handling rather than commercial revenue. The organization benefits from a strong market position as a trusted authority on youth internet safety. Its partnership ecosystem includes EU programs and international networks combating online hate and abuse. The website's content and campaigns indicate a focus on emerging risks such as social media challenges, political extremism, and self-harm trends among youth. The organization's digital presence is mature, with multilingual support and active social media engagement, supporting outreach and awareness goals.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data leaks. The use of Matomo analytics reflects privacy-conscious data collection. However, the absence of key security headers like Content-Security-Policy and lack of published incident response contacts or security.txt file represent gaps in security maturity. No vulnerabilities or malware were detected in the content. GDPR compliance is evident, but further improvements in security transparency and header implementation would strengthen the overall security stance. The missing WHOIS data reduces domain trust but is mitigated by the professional site and imprint information.
Recommendations
Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
Publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve incident response transparency.
Add explicit incident response contact information on the website, such as a dedicated security or abuse email.
Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.
Enhance cookie consent mechanisms to include explicit user consent for tracking where applicable.

Notes
The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust and widely used content management system, ensuring scalability and maintainability. Front-end technologies include Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for DOM manipulation, and Slick Carousel for interactive sliders. The site loads asynchronously some scripts, improving performance. Meta tags and alternate language links support SEO and multilingual access. The site is mobile optimized with good accessibility features. Hosting details are not explicitly found, but the site uses HTTPS with a valid certificate. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in image sizes and script loading. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content.
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.
