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

The Stiftung Rheinland-Pfalz für Kultur is a regional cultural foundation in Germany focused on supporting and promoting cultural activities within Rheinland-Pfalz. The website highlights key cultural projects such as the Kultursommer Rheinland-Pfalz and the Künstlerhaus Edenkoben, positioning itself as a non-profit organization dedicated to cultural enrichment. The site is built on TYPO3 CMS with Bootstrap framework, indicating a modern but straightforward technical infrastructure. The website is mobile optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content for its target audience. However, it lacks visible contact information, privacy policy, and terms of service pages, which are important for transparency and compliance. Security posture is moderate with cookie consent implemented but missing security headers and no visible incident response or security policies. Overall, the website is functional and professional but could improve in privacy compliance and security best practices.

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

4 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

    • 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

  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 foundation operates in the non-profit cultural sector, serving residents and cultural participants in Rheinland-Pfalz. Its business model revolves around funding and managing cultural projects and institutions. The website's partnership with Künstlerhaus Edenkoben suggests a collaborative ecosystem within the regional cultural landscape. The absence of commercial elements and advertising indicates a focus on public service rather than revenue generation. Growth indicators are not explicit, but the presence of multiple cultural initiatives points to active engagement in the cultural community. The foundation maintains a consistent brand presence and targets a general audience interested in culture and arts.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS implied but not confirmed from the data, cookie consent implemented, and no visible security headers. There is no evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries in the provided content. However, the lack of a privacy policy, terms of service, and incident response contacts represent compliance gaps. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found. The site would benefit from implementing security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be improved to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and configure security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to strengthen security posture.
  3. Add clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security incident reporting.
  4. Develop and publish terms of service and data protection officer contact details if applicable.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses TYPO3 CMS with Bootstrap 5 framework, indicating a modern and maintainable platform. The inclusion of Photoswipe and Popper.js suggests interactive UI elements. The site loads multiple CSS and JS assets with versioning for cache control. Mobile optimization is good with responsive images and viewport meta tags. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal user tracking. Performance is moderate based on asset loading and framework usage. No hosting provider information was found. The site lacks advanced SEO metadata beyond basic meta tags and canonical link. Accessibility is basic with skip links but could be improved. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced SEO, accessibility, and security configurations.
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.
