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

The Service und Marketing Gesellschaft Landesbauernverband Baden-Württemberg mbH (SMG) operates as a subsidiary of the Landesbauernverband Baden-Württemberg e.V., providing exclusive discounts and partner offers to its agricultural members in Baden-Württemberg. The website clearly targets LBV members, offering benefits in automotive, energy, household, and retail sectors. The company has a regional niche market position with a focused business model centered on member services and partnerships. Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS, hosted on Hetzner servers, and employs modern web technologies including Bootstrap and JavaScript. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO and accessibility basics. Google Analytics is used for visitor tracking with appropriate cookie consent mechanisms in place. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses cookie consent banners, but lacks explicit security headers and publicly available security or incident response policies. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The domain registration data is consistent and legitimate, supporting the trustworthiness of the site. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy digital presence with good privacy compliance and business credibility. Strategic improvements in security headers and incident response transparency could further enhance its security posture.

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 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

  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"

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.

Breach exposure

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

SMG holds a strong position as a service provider for agricultural members in Baden-Württemberg, leveraging partnerships with automotive brands, energy providers, and retail chains to deliver value-added benefits. Its business model is membership-based, focusing on exclusive discounts and offers. The company benefits from its affiliation with the Landesbauernverband, enhancing credibility and market reach. Growth indicators include active promotion of member benefits and online seminars. The partnership ecosystem is robust, including regional agricultural organizations and commercial partners. The company operates in a specialized sector with limited direct competition, emphasizing member loyalty and service quality.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms implemented. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents a gap. No incident response or security policy pages are publicly available, indicating limited transparency in security governance. The use of Google Analytics is disclosed with cookie management, aligning with GDPR requirements. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but could benefit from enhanced header policies and documented incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly update TYPO3 CMS and all third-party extensions to minimize vulnerability risks.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Consider integrating a data protection officer contact or privacy liaison to strengthen GDPR compliance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and widely used content management system, indicating a stable technical foundation. Hosting on Hetzner provides reliable infrastructure. The site uses Bootstrap for responsive design and includes JavaScript for interactivity and cookie management. Performance is moderate, with compressed CSS and JS assets. SEO is well addressed with meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided scripts. The technical stack supports the business needs effectively but could be modernized with enhanced security and accessibility features.
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.
