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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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"

    • 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';…
  2. 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.

Technical appendix

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

Business context

Business profile

The association occupies a niche in the cultural and literary non-profit sector within Germany, specifically Krefeld. Its business model revolves around community engagement, membership, and donations to support library activities. The website highlights partnerships with local cultural groups and the official Mediothek Krefeld, enhancing its credibility. Revenue streams likely include membership fees and donations, supported by event-driven programming. The target audience includes local readers, cultural enthusiasts, and potential donors. The organization demonstrates growth through active event hosting and digital content such as podcasts and serialized novels. The partnership ecosystem includes local cultural councils and literary groups, reinforcing its community integration.

Security posture

The website exhibits a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent is implemented, reflecting awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options indicates room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The lack of a vulnerability disclosure policy or incident response contact suggests limited formal security governance. Overall, the security posture is sufficient for a small non-profit but would benefit from enhancements to protect user data and improve resilience against common web threats.

Recommendations

  1. Implement essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Develop and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Expand privacy and security policies to include incident response procedures and data protection officer contact information.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic security training to foster a stronger security culture within the organization.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on the Jimdo platform using the Jimdo Creator CMS, which provides a stable and user-friendly environment for content management. The technology stack includes jQuery and jQuery UI components, along with Jimdo's proprietary scripts for cookie control and analytics. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and basic accessibility compliance. Performance is moderate, with preconnect and dns-prefetch hints for Jimdo CDN resources. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags including Open Graph and Twitter Cards. However, the site lacks advanced security headers and detailed technical documentation. There is an opportunity to modernize the tech stack by reducing reliance on older libraries and enhancing security configurations.
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.
