Kommunalservice GmbH Lutherstadt Wittenberg operates as a municipal service provider for the city of Lutherstadt Wittenberg, Germany. The company offers a range of services including street cleaning, winter maintenance, green care, and mobility solutions such as e-mobility and fleet management. The website reflects a well-structured municipal service entity with clear ties to the Stadtwerke group, indicating a stable local market position and trusted service delivery. The target audience primarily consists of local residents and municipal clients seeking public service solutions. Technically, the website is built on the TYPO3 CMS platform, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Swiper.js for interactive elements. Accessibility is enhanced through the integration of the eyeAble plugin, and the site demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices. Performance is moderate, with no critical technical issues detected. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and provides a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, it lacks explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, which are recommended for improving trust and compliance. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found, indicating a solid security posture.

Strategic improvements in security transparency and incident response readiness would further enhance its risk profile and stakeholder confidence.

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

    • 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

  2. 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
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 6 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography

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 Kommunalservice GmbH is positioned as an essential municipal service provider within the Government sector, focusing on transportation and green care services. Its business model revolves around servicing the city of Lutherstadt Wittenberg under a city mandate, supported by the Stadtwerke group ecosystem. The company benefits from strong local brand recognition and partnerships with related municipal entities. Revenue streams likely derive from municipal contracts and service fees. The website content and linked partner domains suggest a stable operational environment with moderate growth potential. The absence of commercial advertising and affiliate programs aligns with its public service orientation. The company targets local residents and municipal departments, emphasizing reliability and community service. Strategic partnerships with Stadtwerke and related subsidiaries enhance operational capabilities and market reach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption and a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism that allows granular user control. No security headers were explicitly detected in the HTML content, suggesting room for improvement in HTTP header security configurations. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and preparedness communication. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified, and third-party scripts appear limited to trusted sources. The use of accessibility tools indicates a commitment to inclusive design, indirectly supporting security by reducing attack surface related to accessibility features. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing formal security policies, implementing security headers, and establishing a vulnerability disclosure process.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and controls.
  2. Add incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email addresses) to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to prevent vulnerabilities and ensure compliance.

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.
