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

Mein Mülheim is a tourism-focused website promoting the city of Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany, highlighting local attractions, weekend tips, and outdoor activities. The site targets general visitors and residents interested in exploring the city and its surroundings. The business model centers on local tourism promotion and community engagement. Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS and employs Cookiebot for cookie consent management, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. The site is mobile-optimized and presents good content quality with consistent branding. Security posture is moderate, with HTTPS implied and cookie consent implemented, but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is basic, with no visible privacy policy or terms of service pages. Overall, the website is accessible, safe, and professional but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security disclosures to 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. 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

  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';…

  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

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 positions itself as a local tourism and city promotion platform, targeting residents and visitors of Mülheim an der Ruhr. It leverages content such as weekend tips and outdoor activities to engage its audience. The business likely operates on a small scale, focusing on hospitality and local event promotion. There is no evidence of direct revenue streams or e-commerce functionality. The use of Cookiebot suggests awareness of GDPR compliance requirements. The domain is registered with standard nameservers, but registrant details are minimal, which is common for small local sites. No partnerships or subsidiaries are indicated. The site’s content and structure suggest a focus on community engagement and tourism information dissemination.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and integrates a cookie consent mechanism via Cookiebot, which are positive security and privacy indicators. However, no explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected in the provided content. There is no published security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency in security management. No vulnerability disclosures or security.txt files were found. The absence of contact emails and phone numbers reduces the ability to report security incidents directly. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved by publishing security policies, adding security headers, and providing clear incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing data collection, usage, and user rights.
  2. Add a terms of service page to clarify user agreements and legal disclaimers.
  3. Implement and publish a security policy including incident response contacts such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers to include Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  5. Provide clear and verified contact information including emails and phone numbers to improve trust and facilitate communication.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and widely used content management system, indicating a stable technical foundation. The use of Cookiebot for cookie consent shows compliance with privacy regulations. The site includes responsive design elements and modern CSS variables for styling, supporting good mobile optimization. Performance is moderate, with compressed CSS assets and asynchronous loading of consent scripts. However, no advanced analytics or marketing tools were detected, suggesting limited tracking and data collection. The hosting provider appears to be linked to domaincontrol.com, a common registrar and DNS provider. Accessibility features are basic, and SEO optimization is good with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and security headers to reduce technical risks.
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.
