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

The Fachverband Elektro- und Informationstechnik Hessen/Rheinland-Pfalz (FEHR) operates as a regional trade association providing comprehensive support, consulting, and training services to entrepreneurs and businesses in the electro-technology sector within Hessen and Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany. The website serves as an information hub offering access to legal advice, technical consultations, training seminars, and member benefits, targeting local industry professionals and companies. The association maintains a strong market position as a trusted regional entity with a consistent brand presence and active member engagement. Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS and integrates modern web technologies including Usercentrics for consent management, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and TikTok Pixel for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, with moderate performance. Hosting and DNS are managed via DomainControl (GoDaddy), indicating a professional infrastructure. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses a consent management platform to comply with GDPR. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not visibly implemented, and no public security or incident response policies are published. No vulnerabilities or sensitive data exposures were detected. The WHOIS data aligns with the website's legitimacy, showing consistent domain registration without privacy protection, appropriate for a trade association. Overall, the website demonstrates a good balance of content quality, technical implementation, security posture, privacy compliance, and business credibility, scoring an overall AI rating of 82. Strategic improvements in security headers, incident response transparency, and vulnerability disclosure would further enhance trust and resilience.

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

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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 · found on this site
  • 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

FEHR is positioned as a key regional trade association in the energy and electro-technology sector, serving a medium-sized organization with a focus on member services such as legal and technical consulting, training, and industry representation. The business model is non-profit and membership-driven, targeting local entrepreneurs and specialized businesses. The association leverages partnerships with related industry platforms like mein-ehandwerk.de and zveh.de to extend its service offerings and member engagement. The website content and structure reflect a professional and consistent brand, supporting growth and member retention. No direct revenue streams are visible on the site, consistent with a trade association model. The partnership ecosystem is robust, including links to certification bodies, training platforms, and industry media.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption and a GDPR-compliant consent management system (Usercentrics). Tracking and analytics are implemented with user consent, reflecting privacy awareness. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents a moderate security gap. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, which could hinder rapid response to security events. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The use of third-party scripts (Google Analytics, TikTok Pixel) is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. Overall, the site is secure but could benefit from enhanced security controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Create and maintain a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to prevent vulnerabilities from outdated components.
  5. Enhance user trust by providing more visible privacy and security information, including data retention policies and compliance statements.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and widely used content management system, ensuring a stable and scalable platform. The tech stack includes modern JavaScript libraries and integrates Usercentrics for consent management, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and TikTok Pixel for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive images and accessible navigation. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in loading speed and resource management. The hosting provider is not explicitly stated but DNS is managed via DomainControl (GoDaddy). The site uses valid HTML and CSS with no visible errors. Technical debt appears low, but security header implementation and explicit performance optimizations could be improved to reduce risks and enhance 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.
