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 Lichtenfels operates within the education and non-profit sectors, serving a niche market of adult learners interested in faith, culture, and family education. Its market position is regional and closely tied to the Catholic Church network, with partnerships across related organizations in Bavaria. The business model is service-oriented, focusing on community enrichment rather than commercial revenue. The presence of certifications and clear contact information supports credibility. The website's content and structure indicate a mature digital presence with moderate performance and good user experience. The partnership ecosystem is robust, linking to multiple related Catholic educational and cultural institutions, enhancing its reach and influence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent is implemented with granular user control. Use of Google reCAPTCHA helps mitigate automated abuse. Matomo analytics is configured to allow anonymous tracking fallback, respecting user privacy. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, which could be a gap in transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the organization's risk profile but could be enhanced with additional best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to strengthen defense against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact channels to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve trust with security researchers.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and plugins to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance user privacy by documenting data retention policies and ensuring all tracking complies with GDPR requirements.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack featuring Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for interactivity, and several plugins for sliders and media display. It uses JWPlayer for media playback and integrates Google reCAPTCHA for bot protection. Analytics are handled via Matomo, configured to respect user consent and anonymize data when needed. The CMS appears to be FlexiWeb or a similar system, inferred from AJAX glossary and clause references. Hosting is managed via internet1.de, as indicated by the nameservers. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, but mobile responsiveness and accessibility are well addressed. The site uses multiple external domains for static content and analytics, all reputable and related to the church network or common web services. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a stable and user-friendly experience aligned with the organization's goals.
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.
