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.

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

MainPost holds a solid position as a regional news provider with a comprehensive portfolio of services including advertising, e-paper, and event coverage. Its business model revolves around content publishing and monetization through advertising and subscription services. The presence of multiple related domains suggests a broad ecosystem supporting various media and community engagement activities. The company leverages modern digital tools for content delivery and user engagement, targeting residents and businesses in the Obermain and wider Bavarian region.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with an excellent SSL configuration and integrates a consent management platform (Usercentrics) to comply with GDPR. However, explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy and HSTS are not detected, which could enhance security posture. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analyzed content. The absence of published security policies or incident response contacts indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from additional hardening and disclosure.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish explicit security headers like CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the main site to improve compliance and user trust.
  3. Provide a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users, including those with disabilities.
  5. Add explicit contact information including security and incident response contacts to improve transparency and readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based tech stack with integrations for consent management (Usercentrics), paywall and subscription management (Tinypass/Piano), advertising (Stroeer, Taboola), and push notifications (Cleverpush). Structured data is extensively used for SEO and content organization. The site is mobile-optimized and supports multiple device platforms. Performance is moderate with some deferred and asynchronous script loading. Hosting provider details are not explicitly available. The technical implementation is solid with opportunities to improve security headers and 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.
