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

The website www.klagenfurt.at serves as the official digital presence of the city government of Klagenfurt am Wörthersee, Austria. It provides municipal services, public information, and resources for residents and visitors. The site is positioned as a key government portal with a focus on city services such as waste management, education, and building permits. The target audience primarily includes local residents and tourists seeking official information. Technically, the website is built on the TYPO3 CMS platform, leveraging modern web technologies including Bootstrap Package, jQuery, and Modernizr. It integrates analytics tools such as Matomo and Google Tag Manager for user tracking and performance monitoring. The site is hosted by Webwerk Online Solutions GmbH and demonstrates moderate performance with good mobile optimization. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, it lacks visible security headers and formal security or incident response policies. Privacy compliance is limited due to the absence of a privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism, which are critical for GDPR adherence. The WHOIS data confirms the domain's legitimacy and consistency with the official city government entity. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but requires improvements in privacy compliance and security best practices to enhance user trust and regulatory adherence.

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. 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

  2. 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 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';…

  3. 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

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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 city of Klagenfurt operates this website as a government service portal, positioning itself as the authoritative source for municipal information and services. Its competitive advantage lies in official status and comprehensive service coverage for residents. The business model is non-commercial, focused on public service delivery. Revenue streams are typical of government funding rather than commercial sales. The target customer segments include local citizens, businesses, and visitors. Growth indicators include active social media engagement and continuous content updates. The partnership ecosystem includes hosting and analytics providers. Strategic observations highlight the need for enhanced privacy and security transparency to maintain public trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security maturity with HTTPS enforcement and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the lack of security headers and absence of published security policies or incident response contacts indicate gaps in security posture. Compliance with GDPR is incomplete due to missing privacy and cookie policies. The use of third-party analytics scripts introduces moderate tracking risks. Incident response readiness is not publicly documented. Overall, the security culture appears functional but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy detailing data collection, usage, and user rights to comply with GDPR.
  2. Implement a cookie consent banner to obtain explicit user consent for tracking and cookies.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Develop and publish an incident response policy with clear contact channels for security issues.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities and reduce tracking risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses TYPO3 CMS with Bootstrap Package for responsive design, supported by jQuery and Modernizr for enhanced browser compatibility. Analytics are managed via Matomo and Google Tag Manager. Hosting is provided by Webwerk Online Solutions GmbH. The site shows moderate performance and good mobile optimization but lacks advanced accessibility features. SEO optimization is basic with standard meta tags but no structured data or Open Graph tags detected. Technical debt appears low, but modernization opportunities include improved accessibility and SEO enhancements. No critical technical risks were identified.
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.
