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

5 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.

    • 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

  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';…
  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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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.

Breach exposure

Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention neuwaerts.de, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for neuwaerts.de right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Business context

Business profile

neuwaerts GmbH operates as a full-service creative agency targeting businesses and organizations in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Their competitive advantage lies in combining traditional craftsmanship with digital innovation, supported by a diverse service portfolio including brand strategy, corporate identity, and AI consulting. The company leverages a strong local presence in Hannover while serving a broader DACH market. Revenue streams likely derive from project-based client engagements across various sectors. The agency maintains active social media channels and showcases reputable clients, indicating a healthy partnership ecosystem and market recognition. Growth indicators include relocation to a new office and ongoing recruitment efforts, signaling expansion and investment in talent.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS and a robust cookie consent framework aligned with GDPR requirements. No security headers were explicitly detected, suggesting room for improvement in HTTP security configurations. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. No vulnerabilities or outdated libraries were identified, and no sensitive data exposure was found. The site does not provide a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file, which are best practices for responsible security management. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from enhanced policy documentation and security header implementation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices, data protection measures, and incident response procedures to increase transparency and trust.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program and provide a security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit third-party libraries and dependencies to ensure they are up to date and free from known vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance monitoring and logging capabilities to detect and respond promptly to potential security incidents.

Notes

The website is built using Webflow CMS, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries including GSAP for animations and Alpine.js for reactive components. It uses CookieHub for cookie consent management and integrates social media widgets via Elfsight. Hosting is provided through Webflow's CDN infrastructure, ensuring fast content delivery and high availability. The site is well-structured with valid HTML and CSS, optimized for mobile devices and accessibility. Performance is fast with preloading of key assets such as videos. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, with no signs of technical debt or deprecated technologies. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and formalize security policies 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.
