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

komm.passion GmbH is a medium-sized full-service communication consultancy and creative agency operating primarily in Germany with offices in Düsseldorf, Hamburg, and Berlin. The company is affiliated internationally with Team Farner, enhancing its market position. Their service portfolio includes corporate communications, change management, digital health, employer branding, sustainability, and crisis communication among others. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear navigation and relevant content targeting corporate clients seeking integrated communication solutions. Technically, the site is built on TYPO3 CMS and uses modern web technologies including Google Tag Manager and FontAwesome. However, a critical security gap exists as the website lacks HTTPS, exposing users to potential risks. Privacy compliance is well addressed with a cookie consent mechanism and a comprehensive privacy policy. Social media presence and trust indicators such as Google Partner and BVDW membership support business credibility. Overall, the site is functional and professional but requires urgent security improvements to meet modern standards.

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

8 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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

komm.passion GmbH positions itself as a hybrid between a management consultancy and a creative agency, targeting corporate clients in Germany and internationally through Team Farner. Their broad service offering spans strategic communication, digital transformation, sustainability, and employer branding, indicating a diversified revenue model. The company leverages certifications and memberships to build trust and market credibility. The website's multilingual support (German and English) and clear contact information across multiple offices suggest a client-focused approach. The use of TYPO3 CMS and integration of analytics tools indicate a mature digital infrastructure. However, the absence of HTTPS could impact client trust and SEO rankings. The company appears to maintain a moderate size with a focus on quality and comprehensive service delivery rather than volume.

Security posture

The website's security posture is weak due to the absence of HTTPS, which is a critical vulnerability exposing all data transmissions to interception and manipulation. While some security headers like X-Content-Type-Options are present, the lack of HSTS, OCSP stapling, and session resumption mechanisms further weaken the security stance. No evidence of incident response policies or security frameworks was found, indicating potential gaps in organizational security maturity. The cookie consent mechanism and privacy policy demonstrate awareness of GDPR compliance, but the technical security implementation needs urgent enhancement. The lack of vulnerable libraries is positive, but the missing SSL/TLS certificate overshadows this. Overall, the site is at risk of man-in-the-middle attacks and user data exposure, which could damage reputation and compliance status.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire website immediately.
  2. Implement HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload directives to enforce secure connections.
  3. Add additional security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Referrer-Policy, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  4. Establish and publish an incident response policy and contact channel for security issues to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update all third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on a server running nginx with PleskLin control panel, using TYPO3 CMS as the content management system. DNS is managed via joker.com nameservers with no DNSSEC or CAA records configured, which could be improved for DNS security. The site uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking, and FontAwesome for icons. Performance metrics were not available, but the site appears mobile-optimized with responsive images and layouts. Accessibility features are basic but present. The lack of HTTPS is the most significant technical deficiency. The site uses JavaScript for email obfuscation and video teaser functionality. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but requires security hardening and performance monitoring.
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.
