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

10 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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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 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 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 · found on this site
  • 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

MOBILOTSIN operates as a government-affiliated consulting and qualification provider in the transportation sector, specifically targeting municipalities in Lower Saxony. Its competitive advantage lies in its official backing by LNVG and its focus on the traffic transition and innovative mobility solutions. The business model revolves around providing advisory services, organizing events, and offering training programs. The website indicates a medium-sized operation with a clear regional focus. Partnerships with entities like LNVG and references to federal mobility forums suggest a strong ecosystem. The presence of alumni login and structured event management points to an established operational framework. Growth indicators include ongoing event scheduling and active newsletter engagement.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security maturity. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no dedicated security contact channels are provided. The lack of cookie consent mechanisms may pose compliance risks under GDPR. No vulnerabilities or malicious indicators were detected in the HTML content. The security score reflects a need for enhanced security controls and transparency to meet higher compliance standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to harden the website against common attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with GDPR and improve user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to enhance trust and preparedness.
  4. Conduct a security audit to identify and remediate any potential vulnerabilities in backend systems and third-party integrations.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance by detailing data retention policies and providing a data protection officer contact if applicable.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the ProcessWire CMS platform, leveraging modern front-end technologies such as Owl Carousel for sliders and Alpine.js for interactive UI components. The HTML is well-structured with proper meta tags for SEO and social media integration via Open Graph and Twitter cards. Performance appears moderate with optimized images and responsive design ensuring good mobile usability. Hosting is managed via DomainControl nameservers, a common registrar service. No heavy analytics or tracking scripts were detected, reducing technical complexity and privacy concerns. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility features and implement advanced 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.
