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

    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. 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

      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

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 Meldestelle Sportmanipulation occupies a unique position as a government-operated whistleblowing platform focused on sports integrity. Its business model centers on public service rather than commercial revenue, targeting sports participants, fans, and stakeholders concerned with fair play. The partnership ecosystem includes a specialized law firm and a third-party anonymous reporting platform, enhancing credibility and operational effectiveness. The site’s content and services are tailored to encourage reporting and support investigations, positioning it as a key player in the German sports compliance landscape.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, cookie consent for analytics, and no exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy and a published security or incident response policy indicates room for improvement. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present, which could enhance transparency and trust. The site’s reliance on a trusted law firm for handling reports suggests a strong procedural security culture, but technical security documentation is limited.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and user trust.
  3. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance cookie consent mechanisms by providing detailed information on data retention and processing.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and analytics tools to ensure no privacy or security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Government Site Builder CMS, a specialized platform for German federal websites, ensuring compliance with government standards. The tech stack includes responsive CSS stylesheets and JavaScript for UI and analytics integration. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. The site uses Matomo analytics with explicit user consent, reflecting privacy-conscious design. There is no evidence of outdated or vulnerable libraries. Hosting details are not explicit but domain name servers indicate stable German hosting. Opportunities exist to modernize security headers and improve SEO metadata completeness.
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.
