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.

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.

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

A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The foundation operates in the non-profit sector with a niche focus on education, research, and sports promotion. Its business model revolves around project funding, scholarships, and partnerships with sports organizations. The target audience includes educational institutions, volunteers, and sports communities in Germany. The foundation maintains a consistent brand image and leverages partnerships to extend its reach. The absence of commercial advertising and tracking tools suggests a privacy-conscious approach aligned with non-profit values. Growth indicators include active blog content and event collaborations. The partnership ecosystem is well-defined with related domains supporting its mission.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and no visible exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, which could be improved to enhance trust and readiness. GDPR compliance is partially addressed with a privacy policy present, but the lack of a cookie consent mechanism is a compliance gap. No analytics or tracking scripts reduce privacy risks but also limit user behavior insights. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small non-profit but could benefit from enhanced policies and technical controls.
Recommendations
Implement a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and improve user transparency.
Add security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to strengthen protection against common web attacks.
Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
Develop and publish a terms of service page to clarify user and legal expectations.
Consider adding a data protection officer contact or privacy contact point to enhance compliance and trust.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built using the Hugo static site generator, leveraging modern front-end libraries such as Bootstrap for responsive design, Flickity for carousels, and AOS for animations. The use of jQuery and other JavaScript libraries indicates a rich interactive experience. Performance is moderate, with no evident heavy scripts or tracking pixels. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible at a basic level, with room for improvement in accessibility standards. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and canonical links. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The technical stack is modern and maintainable, suitable for a small non-profit organization.
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.
