Risk levelMedium

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

The website mint-frauen-bw.de represents a regional initiative in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, focused on promoting women in STEM (MINT) careers. It provides educational measures, workshops, and career planning support targeting women interested in STEM fields. The site is built on WordPress using the Avada theme and includes SEO and accessibility features, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, but lacks explicit privacy policies, terms of service, and security headers. Contact information is not readily available, which may impact user trust and compliance. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy for its purpose but could improve in privacy and security transparency.

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

4 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 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 initiative positions itself as a key regional player in STEM education for women in Baden-Württemberg, leveraging partnerships and structured programs. Its business model is non-profit and educational, focusing on outreach and support rather than commercial revenue. The website's content and structure suggest a well-maintained platform with consistent branding and good user experience. However, the absence of detailed business contact information and legal policies limits full business credibility. The use of standard WordPress plugins and themes indicates reliance on established technologies but also potential for technical debt if not regularly updated.

Security posture

Security maturity is moderate to good, with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, which could hinder timely reporting and mitigation of security issues. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. The site would benefit from enhanced security policies and transparency to improve trust and compliance with GDPR and other regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to strengthen security posture.
  3. Add clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for business and incident response.
  4. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly audit and update plugins and themes to mitigate potential vulnerabilities and technical debt.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses WordPress CMS with the Avada theme, supported by plugins such as Yoast SEO for search optimization, Borlabs Cookie for cookie management, and Accessibly Widget for accessibility enhancements. The site loads jQuery and uses modern web fonts and lazy loading scripts for performance. The technical implementation is solid with responsive design and SEO best practices. Hosting provider details are not explicit, but DNS uses UI-DNS name servers. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. Accessibility features are well integrated, supporting a broad user base. The site lacks some advanced security headers and explicit privacy/legal pages, which are areas for improvement.
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.
