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.

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.

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.

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
KAOS holds a strong position as a local cultural and youth center with a niche in arts education and community development. Its business model is non-profit, relying on public funding, private donations, and partnerships. The organization targets children, youth, educators, and community members interested in cultural activities. Its affiliation with KINDERVEREINIGUNG® Leipzig e.V. provides operational stability and access to broader social services. The website reflects a mature digital strategy with integration of donation platforms and volunteer recruitment. Partnerships with local and international organizations enhance its program offerings and outreach. Growth indicators include ongoing projects, event calendars, and active community engagement. The organization maintains transparency and trust through clear contact channels and policy disclosures.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data. Use of Borlabs Cookie indicates attention to privacy and consent management. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not evident and should be implemented to enhance protection against common web attacks. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are published, which could improve security readiness. The technology stack is up to date with recent WordPress and jQuery versions, reducing risk from known vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-profit cultural website but could benefit from additional hardening and formal security policies.
Recommendations
Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
Regularly audit and update all plugins and themes to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.

The site loads jQuery 3.7.1 and Facebook SDK scripts, supporting interactive and social media features. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO meta tags present.

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.
