The website kirchenrecht-ekiba.de serves as an authoritative online legal reference platform for the Evangelical Church in Baden, providing systematic access to church laws, ordinances, and related legal documents. It targets church officials, legal professionals, and theologians within the Baden region, positioning itself as a trusted source for ecclesiastical legal information. The platform offers search functionality and downloadable e-book formats, enhancing accessibility and usability.
Technically, the site employs a modern responsive design using Bootstrap and Font Awesome, hosted on SchlundTech infrastructure. It integrates privacy-conscious analytics via Matomo and implements a cookie consent mechanism, reflecting GDPR awareness. While the site uses HTTPS and has a consistent branding approach, it lacks explicit privacy policies, terms of service, and direct contact information, which are areas for improvement.
From a security perspective, the site benefits from HTTPS encryption and absence of visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, it does not implement advanced security headers, and lacks published security policies or incident response contacts. The WHOIS data aligns well with the church entity, indicating legitimacy and consistent domain registration.
Overall, the website is professionally designed, content-rich, and trustworthy for its intended audience, but could enhance privacy compliance and security posture by adding explicit policies and security headers. No adult or questionable content is present, making it safe for general audiences.

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.
Email security
SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.
Critical
No email authentication configured
Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing
What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately
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

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.
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.

Business context
Business profile
Kirchenrecht-ekiba.de operates within the government and non-profit sectors, specifically serving the Evangelical Church in Baden. Its business model revolves around providing authoritative legal information and resources related to church law. The platform's competitive advantage lies in its official status and comprehensive, systematically organized legal content. Revenue streams are likely indirect, supported by the church institution rather than commercial sales. The target customers include church officials, legal experts, and theologians requiring access to up-to-date ecclesiastical legal texts. The site demonstrates growth potential through digital accessibility and downloadable content. Partnerships with related church domains and a dedicated shop domain indicate an ecosystem supporting church legal and educational needs.
Security posture
The website exhibits a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data leaks. The use of Matomo analytics suggests a privacy-conscious approach. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. Lack of published security policies or incident response contacts indicates limited transparency in security governance. No known vulnerabilities or malware indicators were detected. Compliance with GDPR is partial, evidenced by cookie consent but missing privacy policy documentation. Overall, the security posture is adequate for an informational site but could be improved to meet higher standards and regulatory requirements.
Recommendations
Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to enhance transparency and GDPR compliance.
Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen security posture.
Provide clear contact information for security incidents and data protection officer to improve incident response readiness.
Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and analytics tools to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization to improve user experience and discoverability.

Technical notes
Notes
The website uses a modern responsive design framework (Bootstrap) and iconography (Font Awesome), indicating a contemporary front-end approach. Hosting is provided by SchlundTech, a reputable German hosting provider. The site integrates Matomo analytics for user tracking, reflecting a preference for privacy-friendly tools. Performance is moderate, with no explicit indicators of slow loading but also no advanced optimization techniques detected. The site lacks a CMS signature, suggesting a custom or minimal CMS solution. Accessibility is basic, with some screen-reader support in navigation. SEO is basic with standard meta tags but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags detected. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from modernization and enhanced optimization.
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.
