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

Karintia is a tourism-focused website promoting vacationing in the Carinthia region of Austria, targeting Hungarian-speaking tourists. The site highlights natural attractions such as alpine lakes and cultural diversity. Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS and uses a modern frontend stack including jQuery, Foundation, and various UI libraries. It integrates multiple third-party marketing and analytics tools, including Matomo and Cookiebot for privacy compliance. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, though the absence of WHOIS data and security headers suggests areas for improvement. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security hardening.

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

5 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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. 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

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 29 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
      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates

  3. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Weak SPF Policy

      SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email

      What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email security

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 website serves as a regional tourism marketing platform, leveraging partnerships with multiple language-specific domains to reach a broad audience. Its business model revolves around promoting Carinthia as a travel destination, likely generating revenue through tourism-related services and partnerships. The extensive use of marketing and retargeting tools indicates a focus on customer acquisition and engagement. However, the lack of explicit contact information and missing WHOIS data may impact business credibility. The site is well-positioned within its niche but should improve transparency to strengthen trust.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and employs a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. It uses reputable third-party services for analytics and marketing, which increases tracking but is managed with user consent. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of standard security headers and missing WHOIS registration details are notable gaps. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, indicating potential compliance risks. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced by implementing recommended headers and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Verify and publish accurate WHOIS domain registration information to improve legitimacy and trust.
  3. Add explicit contact information including company emails and phone numbers on the website for transparency.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact details to demonstrate security maturity.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy and security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses TYPO3 CMS with a modern frontend technology stack including jQuery, Foundation framework, Owl Carousel, and various UI enhancement libraries. It integrates Matomo Tag Manager and Cookiebot for analytics and privacy compliance. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance tuning.
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.
