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

2 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.

    • 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

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 bank operates in the finance sector with a focus on retail and corporate banking services in the Böblingen region of Germany. Its business model centers on providing traditional banking products supplemented by digital services such as online banking and mobile apps. The presence of social media channels and partnerships with Sparkasse-related services indicates a well-integrated ecosystem. The website content and structure suggest a mature organization with a large customer base and a strong regional market position. No parent company or subsidiaries were identified from the data provided.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS, session timeout dialogs, and cookie consent banners. However, there is no explicit security policy or incident response contact information published, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party scripts appears controlled, but ongoing audits are recommended. GDPR compliance is evident through privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from formalized disclosure and response documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page including incident response contacts.
  2. Implement and publicly disclose a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  3. Add or verify presence of security headers such as Content Security Policy and HSTS.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance visibility of data protection officer contact details to improve GDPR transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager CMS with custom Sparkasse client libraries and uses React for interactive components like the chatbot and app info. It employs modern HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript with jQuery usage implied. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices including meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, with some large images and scripts but no critical issues detected. Hosting details are not explicit but WHOIS data indicates professional DNS management. Opportunities exist to improve performance and security header implementation.
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.
