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

Nodeeps is a German-based small web hosting and domain registration provider with over 11 years of experience serving private users and small to medium businesses. Their offerings include webhosting packages with SSL, managed servers, reseller hosting, and domain services. The website is built on Contao CMS and uses modern technologies such as PHP 7.x, MariaDB, and PostgreSQL. The site is accessible, professionally designed, and provides clear navigation and service descriptions. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and secure mail protocols, but lacks some advanced security headers and explicit incident response policies. Privacy compliance is basic with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the domain registration is consistent with the business claims, though WHOIS data is limited due to DENIC policies. The website is safe, trustworthy, and suitable for its target audience.

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

    • 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 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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

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

Nodeeps operates in the technology sector as a niche hosting provider focusing on German-speaking customers. Their competitive advantage lies in long-term market presence, comprehensive hosting packages including SSL certificates, and managed server services with 24/7 monitoring. The business model is service-oriented, generating revenue from hosting subscriptions and domain registrations. The company maintains a partner program to expand reach. Growth indicators include recent website redesign and tariff updates. The absence of social media and limited marketing tools suggests a focus on direct customer relationships and organic growth.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and secure mail protocols. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No public incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies were found, which could hinder timely security communication. The lack of cookie consent mechanisms may expose the company to GDPR compliance risks. No visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be improved by adopting best practices and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with EU cookie laws and improve privacy compliance.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to build trust and readiness.
  4. Create a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt page to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Improve mobile responsiveness and accessibility to enhance user experience and SEO.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Contao Open Source CMS with PHP 7.2/7.3 and supports multiple database backends including MariaDB and PostgreSQL. The infrastructure supports SSH access, cronjobs, and secure mail protocols. The site is served over HTTPS with a base href set accordingly. Performance is moderate with no explicit optimization scripts detected. The site is basic mobile optimized and accessible but could benefit from enhancements. No third-party analytics or tracking scripts were found, indicating minimal technical overhead and privacy-friendly design. The DNS is managed internally with dedicated nameservers. Overall, the technical stack is stable and suitable for a small hosting provider but could be modernized further.
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.
