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

Wirtschaftsbetriebe Duisburg is a municipal service provider focused on waste management and related customer services for the Duisburg region in Germany. The website offers a customer portal for electronic billing, property information, and waste container management, as well as an online shop for container services and merchandise. The company maintains an active social media presence and links to official municipal resources, reinforcing its local government role. Technically, the website is built on a modern Angular framework with integration of Font Awesome and custom fonts, hosted likely via professional IT services. The site is mobile optimized, accessible, and uses Matomo analytics for privacy-conscious user tracking. Performance is moderate with good SEO and accessibility features. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and several security headers present, including a Content Security Policy. However, the CSP allows 'unsafe-inline' and 'unsafe-eval', which could be tightened to reduce XSS risks. No cookie consent mechanism was detected, which is a GDPR compliance gap. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional, suitable for its public service role. Strategic improvements include enhancing CSP, implementing cookie consent, and publishing security and incident response policies to strengthen compliance and user trust.

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

9 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 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 business operates as a government entity providing essential municipal services in waste management and customer engagement through digital platforms. Its market position is localized to Duisburg, targeting residents and private customers. The business model combines public service with digital convenience via portals and e-commerce. Revenue streams likely include municipal fees and merchandise sales. The partnership ecosystem includes official municipal websites and payment gateways. Growth indicators include digital platform adoption and social media engagement. The company demonstrates a stable operational presence with consistent branding and professional content.

Security posture

The security maturity level is moderate to good. HTTPS and security headers are implemented, but CSP could be improved by removing unsafe directives. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The absence of a cookie consent mechanism and published security policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and best practices. Incident response readiness is unclear due to lack of published contacts. The use of Matomo analytics suggests privacy awareness. Overall, the security culture appears functional but could benefit from formalized policies and tighter controls.

Recommendations

  1. Tighten Content-Security-Policy to eliminate 'unsafe-inline' and 'unsafe-eval' directives to reduce XSS risk.
  2. Implement a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with GDPR requirements.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and security practices to maintain compliance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern Angular 19 framework with integration of Font Awesome and custom fonts for UI consistency. It leverages SAP Hybris Accelerator as the e-commerce backend platform. The site is mobile optimized and accessible with good SEO meta tags. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in resource loading and caching. The use of Matomo analytics indicates a preference for privacy-friendly tracking. Technical risks include the use of unsafe CSP directives and lack of cookie consent. Hosting details are not explicit but likely managed by a professional IT provider (kuhlma-it.de name servers). Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from security hardening and enhanced privacy controls.
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.
