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

Lehrstellenradar is a specialized German platform and mobile app designed to facilitate the search for apprenticeship and internship opportunities in over 130 craft professions. It targets school leavers, parents, teachers, and training advisors, providing a nationwide search capability via both web and mobile applications. The platform positions itself as a niche service within the vocational education sector in Germany, offering free access to listings and the ability to enter new apprenticeship positions. Technically, the website leverages a modern tech stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, and a proprietary ODAV Content Management System. It integrates self-hosted Matomo analytics for privacy-conscious visitor tracking and uses CCM19 for cookie consent management. The site is mobile-optimized and demonstrates good SEO and accessibility practices, although some improvements in accessibility could be made. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and employs a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism. However, no explicit security headers were detected, and there is no published security policy or incident response information. The use of self-hosted analytics and cookie consent tools indicates a good privacy posture, but the absence of a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file suggests room for improvement. Overall, Lehrstellenradar presents a trustworthy and professional online presence with a clear business focus and good technical implementation. The site is safe for general audiences, compliant with GDPR, and well-positioned within its market niche. Strategic enhancements in security transparency and accessibility would further strengthen its 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

5 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

  2. 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

  3. 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 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';…
  4. 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.

Business context

Business profile

Lehrstellenradar operates as an important entity within the education sector, focusing on vocational training and apprenticeship placement in Germany. Its business model centers on providing a free, accessible platform and app for users to find and list apprenticeship and internship opportunities. The target customer segments include school leavers, parents, teachers, and training advisors, indicating a broad but focused user base. The platform's competitive advantage lies in its specialization in craft professions and its integration of mobile and web search capabilities. The company maintains an active social media presence on Facebook and X, enhancing outreach and engagement. Its partnership ecosystem appears limited to hosting and technology providers such as ODAV and CCM19. Revenue streams are not explicitly detailed but likely derive from service provision and possibly partnerships or sponsorships. Growth indicators include a modernized app version and ongoing content updates. Overall, Lehrstellenradar demonstrates a stable market position with potential for expansion within the vocational education domain.

Security posture

Lehrstellenradar exhibits a moderate to good security maturity level. The site enforces HTTPS and uses a cookie consent manager that complies with GDPR requirements, reflecting awareness of privacy and security best practices. The use of self-hosted Matomo analytics reduces reliance on third-party trackers, enhancing data protection. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options represents a gap that could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. Overall, while the site is secure for general use, implementing additional security headers and publishing security documentation would improve its security posture and stakeholder trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Maintain regular updates of all third-party libraries and CMS components to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the ODAV Content Management System version 1.25.0, utilizing jQuery 3.7.1 and Bootstrap CSS for frontend development. It integrates self-hosted Matomo analytics for visitor tracking and uses CCM19 for cookie consent management, indicating a focus on privacy compliance. The site is hosted on servers associated with the odav.de domain, consistent with the WHOIS nameservers. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of analytics and external scripts. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design elements and prefetching of resources to improve user experience. SEO is supported by proper meta tags including Open Graph tags for social media sharing. However, accessibility is basic and could benefit from enhancements such as ARIA landmarks and improved keyboard navigation. No critical technical debt or deprecated technologies were identified, but the site would benefit from implementing modern security headers and expanding 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.
