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

Konsens Booking operates as an online hotel booking platform specializing in providing hotel room reservations for attendees of selected events and congresses primarily in the German-speaking DACH region. The website offers curated hotel options linked to various medical and scientific congresses, targeting event participants seeking convenient accommodation solutions. The business model focuses on acting as an intermediary between event attendees and hotel partners, facilitating bookings for niche event markets. The site content is primarily in German with an option to switch to English, indicating a regional focus with some international accessibility. From a technical perspective, the website employs common web technologies including jQuery, Google Analytics, and Google Tag Manager for tracking and analytics. The site is mobile optimized with a responsive design and includes a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism. However, no CMS or hosting provider information is explicitly detectable, and no advanced frameworks are identified. Performance is moderate with good SEO practices evident through meta tags and sitemap inclusion. Security posture shows some strengths such as IP anonymization in analytics and cookie consent compliance, but lacks visible HTTP security headers and publicly available security policies or incident response contacts. The absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy and transparency, although the professional presentation and GDPR compliance suggest a legitimate business operation. No direct contact emails or phone numbers are found on the homepage, with contact presumably via a form on a dedicated contact page. Overall, the website is functional and professional but would benefit from improved transparency regarding domain registration, enhanced security headers, and clearer direct contact information. These improvements would strengthen trustworthiness and security posture, supporting better compliance and user 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. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  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

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

Konsens Booking occupies a niche market segment focused on hospitality services for event and congress attendees in Germany and Austria. Its competitive advantage lies in specialized hotel booking services tailored to medical and scientific congresses, providing curated hotel partner options. The business model is service-oriented, generating revenue likely through commissions or partnerships with hotels. Target customers are event participants requiring convenient accommodation. Growth indicators include a broad portfolio of upcoming events and congresses listed on the site. The partnership ecosystem appears focused on hotel providers rather than broader strategic alliances. The company maintains a professional digital presence but lacks visible certifications or extensive business disclosures, suggesting a small to medium-sized enterprise with regional focus.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is moderate. The website implements GDPR-compliant cookie consent and anonymizes IP addresses in Google Analytics, reflecting awareness of privacy regulations. However, the lack of HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No publicly disclosed security policies or incident response contacts are found, limiting transparency and preparedness. The missing WHOIS registration data is a significant concern for domain legitimacy and trust. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. Compliance with GDPR is evident but could be enhanced with explicit data protection officer contact and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. Overall, the security culture appears basic and would benefit from formalized policies and technical hardening.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against web attacks.
  2. Publish explicit security and incident response policies on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure legitimacy and trustworthiness.
  4. Add direct company contact emails and phone numbers clearly labeled for support and inquiries to improve business credibility.
  5. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure program and publishing a security.txt file to foster responsible security practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a standard technology stack with jQuery and Google Analytics integrated via Google Tag Manager. The HTML is well-formed with appropriate meta tags for SEO and viewport settings for mobile responsiveness. Cookie consent is implemented with a detailed settings dialog supporting GDPR compliance. No advanced frameworks or CMS platforms are detected, indicating a possibly custom or lightweight solution. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of analytics scripts. Accessibility features are basic but present. The absence of security headers and lack of visible hosting or CMS details suggest opportunities for modernization and technical hardening. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs but could be improved for security and scalability.
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.
