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

2 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 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. 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, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

ODAV AG occupies a strong niche as a technology partner for handcraft organizations in Germany, leveraging decades of industry experience and multiple awards to maintain market credibility. Its business model focuses on delivering specialized software and IT services that streamline administrative and operational tasks for handcraft chambers and businesses. The company’s partnerships with major technology providers like Oracle, Cisco, and Lenovo enhance its service offerings. The target customers are primarily handcraft organizations and SMEs within Germany. The company’s growth is supported by a comprehensive service portfolio and a dedicated training institute. The website’s content and structure reinforce its market position and commitment to quality and innovation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, cookie consent, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. Use of Matomo analytics with consent respects privacy regulations. However, the absence of advanced security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and a public security or incident response policy indicates room for improvement. No vulnerability disclosures or security.txt files were found, which could enhance transparency and incident handling readiness. Overall, the security measures are adequate for the business type but could be strengthened to align with best practices and compliance frameworks.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden site security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.
  5. Enhance monitoring and logging capabilities to detect and respond to potential security incidents promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a proprietary ODAV Content Management System version 1.25.0, utilizing jQuery 3.7.1 and Bootstrap for responsive design. Analytics are handled via Matomo, ensuring privacy-conscious tracking. The site loads scripts asynchronously to optimize performance. Mobile optimization and accessibility features are well implemented, contributing to a positive user experience. Hosting details are not explicitly disclosed, but the presence of multiple nameservers and IPv6 support indicates a robust DNS setup. Performance is moderate, with potential for improvement through optimization of image delivery and script loading. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively with opportunities for modernization and enhanced security.
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.
