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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      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

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

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 website occupies a strong regional niche in Bavaria's vocational training ecosystem, supported by the official Bavarian Handwerkstag organization. Its business model is non-profit and educational, focusing on youth engagement and apprenticeship promotion. The platform's competitive advantage lies in its comprehensive resources, official backing, and multi-channel presence including social media. Revenue streams are likely public or institutional funding rather than commercial. The partnership ecosystem includes recognized Bavarian and German handwork organizations, enhancing legitimacy and reach. Growth indicators include active content updates and interactive features. Strategic observations suggest continued investment in digital engagement and compliance will sustain its market position.

Security posture

The site demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and a robust cookie consent mechanism via Borlabs Cookie. Third-party content is blocked by default until user consent, reducing privacy risks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a minor gap. There is no visible incident response or security policy information, which could be improved for transparency. GDPR compliance is well addressed. Overall, the security posture is strong for a non-commercial educational site, with room for enhancement in header policies and documented incident response.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users.
  5. Consider adding a terms of service page to clarify user rights and obligations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Yoast SEO and Borlabs Cookie plugins, indicating a modern and SEO-conscious infrastructure. It uses jQuery and Swiper.js for interactive elements and Bootstrap classes for responsive design. The site loads CSS and JS assets efficiently with module preload hints. Cookie consent is managed with a comprehensive UI. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. No hosting provider details were explicitly found. The site uses canonical URLs and Open Graph metadata for social sharing. Structured data via JSON-LD is implemented for SEO. Technical risks are minimal but could be reduced by adding security headers and improving 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.
