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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 4 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography

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

KAGes holds a leading position in the regional healthcare sector, providing extensive inpatient and outpatient services across 20 hospital locations and 3 nursing homes. The business model focuses on public healthcare delivery with additional services such as patient portals and professional education. The organization maintains partnerships with regional healthcare providers and has a strong online presence including social media channels. The website content and structure support patient engagement, partner collaboration, and recruitment efforts, indicating a well-rounded operational strategy.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and includes standard security headers, enhancing protection against common web threats. Cookie consent mechanisms and session management for SAP authentication indicate attention to user privacy and session security. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response details, or vulnerability disclosure program suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing formal security documentation and contact channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information, including security or abuse email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and cookies to minimize privacy risks.
  5. Enhance transparency on data retention policies and user data processing details.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses TYPO3 CMS, a mature and widely used content management system, ensuring a stable and scalable platform. The inclusion of Matomo analytics reflects a privacy-conscious approach to user tracking. The site loads with moderate performance and is mobile-optimized with good accessibility features. Use of Google Maps embeds and external resources is controlled with cookie consent. The technical implementation is modern and aligns with best practices, though hosting provider details are not explicit. Opportunities exist to improve performance optimization and further enhance accessibility compliance.
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.
