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

Krefelder Textweber is a small literary group based in Germany, focused on writing and sharing poems and short stories since 2010. Their website serves as a platform to announce events and share their literary work, targeting a general audience interested in cultural and literary activities. The site is hosted on IONOS MyWebsite platform, indicating a modest but functional technical infrastructure. The website is mobile optimized and offers clear navigation, though it lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features. Security posture is basic with HTTPS enabled but missing important security headers and privacy compliance elements such as privacy and cookie policies. No contact emails or phone numbers are explicitly provided, which may affect user trust and engagement. Overall, the site is functional and relevant for its niche but requires improvements in security and privacy compliance to enhance trust and regulatory adherence.

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

7 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

  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

      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

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 business operates as a local cultural literary group with a focus on community engagement through readings and publications. Their market position is niche and local, with no evident commercial revenue streams or partnerships. The business model centers on cultural promotion rather than commercial sales. The absence of contact details and formal policies suggests a small-scale operation with limited digital maturity. Growth indicators or partnerships are not evident from the website content. The use of IONOS MyWebsite platform suggests reliance on third-party hosting and CMS services.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled, which is mandatory. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces protection against common web attacks. No forms or data collection mechanisms are present, minimizing attack surface but also limiting user interaction. The lack of privacy and cookie policies indicates non-compliance with GDPR requirements, which is a significant compliance gap. No incident response or security contact information is provided. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, suitable for a low-risk informational site but requiring enhancements for compliance and protection.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR.
  2. Add standard security headers to improve protection against common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers to enhance trust and user engagement.
  4. Consider adding a security incident response contact or policy to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Enhance accessibility and SEO features to improve user experience and discoverability.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using the IONOS MyWebsite CMS platform, leveraging standard HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. It uses external CDN resources hosted by website-start.de and mywebsite-editor.com. The site is mobile responsive with basic accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with no heavy scripts or analytics detected. The technical stack is simple and suitable for a small cultural group website but lacks advanced features or integrations. There is no evidence of modern JavaScript frameworks or backend technologies. Hosting is provided by IONOS, a reputable provider. The site would benefit from improved SEO metadata and accessibility 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.
