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. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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

Business profile

Netbeat holds a competitive position in the German web hosting market by offering budget-friendly hosting packages with a focus on transparency and compliance. Their business model revolves around tiered hosting services, domain registration, and email hosting, catering to a broad audience from private users to professional webmasters. The company benefits from long-standing partnerships with reputable data center providers and technology partners, enhancing service reliability. Their 20+ years of experience and ISO 27001 certification serve as strong trust signals. The absence of direct contact emails in the HTML suggests a preference for controlled communication channels via support portals. The company’s marketing approach includes clear pricing, money-back guarantees, and 24/7 support, positioning them as a reliable and customer-focused provider.

Security posture

Netbeat demonstrates a mature security posture with hosting in ISO 27001 certified data centers and enforced HTTPS across the site. The presence of a cookie consent mechanism and a comprehensive privacy policy indicates GDPR awareness and compliance. However, the website lacks explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure information are not publicly available, which could be improved to strengthen transparency and readiness. Overall, the security measures align well with industry standards for a hosting provider of this size and market segment.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance web security.
  2. Publish clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies to improve transparency and security culture.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding direct, clearly labeled contact emails and phone numbers on the website to improve customer trust and communication.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and stable technology stack including Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for DOM manipulation, and SweetAlert2 for enhanced UI alerts. FontAwesome provides iconography, and Matomo is used for privacy-focused analytics. Hosting is provided by Vautron Rechenzentrum AG, a certified German data center operator. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly with proper meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, with no major issues detected. There is no evidence of a CMS, suggesting a custom or static site architecture. Technical risks are minimal but could be further reduced by implementing recommended security headers and improving accessibility compliance.
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.
