Risk levelHigh

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

The website www.kleinkunst-ekm.de serves as a cultural networking platform for the Evangelische Kirche in Mitteldeutschland, connecting artists and church communities across the region. It offers a curated portal for artists and venues, supporting cultural events such as Kirchenkino and providing resources like documents and workshops. The site is positioned as a small, non-profit entity with a clear regional focus and strong church affiliation. Technically, the website employs a modern front-end stack including Bootstrap, jQuery, and popular carousel and slider libraries. Hosting is provided by Eastlink, a German hosting provider, with HTTPS enabled ensuring secure communication. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, though accessibility features are basic. Analytics are handled via Matomo, indicating some privacy consideration. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS but lacks visible security headers and published security or incident response policies. No cookie consent mechanism is present, which is a GDPR compliance gap. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The WHOIS data is minimal but consistent with a small non-profit organization, with no suspicious patterns. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and serves its community well, but could improve privacy compliance and security posture by adding cookie consent, security headers, and formal policies.

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

9 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"

    • 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';…

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 platform operates within the cultural and religious non-profit sector, targeting church communities and artists in Mitteldeutschland. Its business model focuses on facilitating connections and providing resources rather than commercial transactions. The network benefits from partnerships with regional cultural organizations, enhancing its reach and credibility. The site’s longevity since 2001 and affiliation with the Evangelische Kirche in Mitteldeutschland position it as a trusted regional player. Revenue streams are likely limited to church funding or grants, with no commercial advertising detected. Growth potential lies in expanding digital services and community engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and no visible vulnerabilities. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and lack of published security or incident response policies indicate room for improvement. The lack of a cookie consent mechanism is a compliance risk under GDPR. Data protection practices appear basic, with Matomo analytics used for privacy-friendly tracking. Incident response readiness is unclear due to missing contact channels for security issues. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small non-profit but should be enhanced to reduce risk and improve compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR requirements.
  2. Add standard security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to improve security posture.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Conduct a privacy audit to ensure full GDPR compliance, including data retention policies.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and SEO benefits.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a well-established front-end technology stack with Bootstrap and jQuery, supplemented by Slick Carousel and Revolution Slider for interactive elements. The codebase appears modern and mobile-responsive, with good SEO meta tags and Open Graph data. Hosting is via Eastlink, a reputable German provider, with HTTPS enforced. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by slider scripts and image sizes. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or static site. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and cookie management are recommended to align with best practices.
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.
