KEB Coburg is a regional non-profit organization focused on adult education, cultural, and religious activities in the Coburg area of Germany. The organization targets a broad audience across generations and social strata, offering educational courses, cultural events, and community engagement opportunities. Their market position is that of a trusted local educational provider with certification from CERTQUA, indicating adherence to quality standards. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear contact information and comprehensive privacy and cookie policies. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including Bootstrap, jQuery, Font Awesome, and integrates Matomo analytics with a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and performs moderately well. Hosting appears to be managed by kirche-bamberg.de infrastructure, aligning with the religious and educational nature of the organization. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent and bot protection via Google reCAPTCHA. However, explicit security headers are not clearly detected, and no public security or incident response policies are found. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the content. The domain WHOIS data is limited but consistent with a regional German entity, supporting legitimacy.

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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

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

KEB Coburg operates as a non-profit adult education provider within the education and non-profit sectors in Germany. Their business model centers on community-oriented educational and cultural services, supported by partnerships with related church and social organizations. The organization benefits from certification by CERTQUA, enhancing trust and quality assurance. Their target customers include adults seeking meaningful educational and cultural experiences. The website's partnership ecosystem includes regional church bodies and social service organizations, indicating a collaborative approach. Growth indicators include a diverse event calendar and active community engagement. Revenue streams are likely based on membership, event fees, and possibly public or church funding. The organization maintains a professional online presence with clear contact and legal information, supporting operational transparency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforcement, cookie consent management, and bot protection via Google reCAPTCHA. The use of Matomo analytics with anonymous tracking fallback shows attention to privacy compliance. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents a gap. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, limiting transparency in security governance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The organization would benefit from publishing a security policy, incident response contacts, and implementing recommended security headers. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-profit educational website but could be improved to align with best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information on the website to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve security communication.
  4. Regularly update all third-party libraries and plugins to their latest secure versions to reduce risk of vulnerabilities.
  5. Continue to monitor and improve privacy compliance, especially regarding data retention policies and user consent management.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack featuring Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for interactivity, Font Awesome for icons, and advanced sliders and media players such as Revolution Slider and JWPlayer. It integrates Google reCAPTCHA for bot protection and Matomo for analytics, configured with privacy-conscious settings. The CMS appears to be FlexiWeb or a similar platform, supporting AJAX tooltips and modular content. Hosting is likely provided by kirche-bamberg.de, a domain associated with the regional church infrastructure. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. The site includes comprehensive cookie consent management and SEO-friendly meta tags. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and publish additional security documentation to reduce technical risks.
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.
