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

The website legal-migration.de is a professionally designed multi-language platform providing comprehensive information and support for legal migration to Germany. It serves migrants and refugees by offering detailed guidance on visa procedures, residence permits, family reunification, vocational training, and integration. The site is developed by Web Commerce GmbH and appears to be a government or non-profit affiliated service, targeting a broad international audience with localized content in multiple languages. Technically, the site uses Edith CMS, jQuery, FontAwesome Pro, and Matomo analytics, indicating a mature and privacy-conscious infrastructure. The website is mobile-optimized with good navigation clarity and moderate performance. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, though some security headers could be improved. Privacy compliance is evident with a comprehensive privacy and cookie policy and a consent mechanism. Overall, the site demonstrates a high level of business credibility and trustworthiness, with clear branding and consistent content quality. No adult or questionable content is present, making it safe for general audiences. The domain WHOIS data aligns with the developer's identity, supporting legitimacy. However, no explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no certifications are displayed. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy, and providing clearer direct contact information for business inquiries to further improve trust and compliance.

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

6 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  3. 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

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

legal-migration.de operates in the government/non-profit sector, focusing on migration support services. Its competitive advantage lies in multi-language, detailed, and structured content tailored to migrants from diverse countries. The business model is informational and advisory, likely funded or supported by governmental or non-profit organizations. The platform targets migrants, refugees, and third-country nationals seeking legal pathways to Germany, offering services such as visa guidance, family reunification, vocational training, and qualification recognition. The partnership with Web Commerce GmbH as developer indicates a professional ecosystem. Growth indicators include extensive language support and comprehensive content coverage. The site maintains a strong market position as a trusted migration information portal.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and use of privacy-respecting Matomo analytics. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Security best practices include cookie consent management and disabling cookies in analytics when consent is denied. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not visibly set, representing an area for improvement. No incident response or security policy pages were found, indicating potential gaps in transparency and readiness. The absence of a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy limits external reporting channels. Overall, the site is secure but could enhance its security culture and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce additional security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options to mitigate XSS and clickjacking risks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Introduce a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and responsible disclosure.
  4. Enhance privacy compliance by explicitly linking cookie and privacy policies in the website footer and ensuring all tracking respects user consent.
  5. Provide direct business contact information including phone numbers and physical addresses to strengthen trust and credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Edith CMS, leveraging jQuery and FontAwesome Pro for UI components and icons. It uses Matomo for analytics, configured to disable cookies if user consent is denied, reflecting privacy-conscious design. The site includes a responsive slideshow using Cycle2 jQuery plugin. Meta tags and JSON-LD structured data are present for SEO and breadcrumb navigation. The site loads multiple CSS and JS bundles, indicating modular design. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization. Accessibility features are basic but present, such as skip links. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from enhanced security headers and performance tuning. Hosting provider details are not explicit in the HTML content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional user experience.
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.
