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

OÖ Landes-Kultur GmbH is the largest cultural institution in the Austrian state of Upper Austria, serving as a museum and cultural hub for the regional population. The organization offers a broad range of exhibitions, events, educational programs, and publications, targeting a general audience interested in art, culture, and regional heritage. The website reflects a professional and well-structured digital presence, supporting the institution's mission to reach beyond central locations into the wider region through diverse cultural offerings. Technically, the website is built on the Contao Open Source CMS and leverages modern web technologies including jQuery, Slick Carousel, and FontAwesome Pro. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics with privacy-conscious configurations such as IP anonymization. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, providing a positive user experience. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, it lacks explicit security headers and does not publish a security policy or incident response contacts, which are areas for improvement. Privacy and cookie policies are present and appear GDPR compliant, supporting user data protection. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professionally maintained, though the absence of WHOIS data reduces domain registration transparency. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing vulnerability disclosure information, and providing incident response contacts to strengthen security posture and user trust.

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

9 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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

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 · found on this site
  • 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

The OÖ Landes-Kultur GmbH operates as a non-profit cultural institution with a strong regional focus in Upper Austria. It holds a leading market position as the largest cultural entity in the region, offering exhibitions, events, educational programs, and publications. The business model centers on cultural promotion and education rather than commercial revenue generation. The institution maintains a broad partnership ecosystem, including online collections and zoological-botanical databases, enhancing its cultural reach and resource base. Growth indicators include active social media engagement across multiple platforms and a regularly updated program of exhibitions and events. The website supports recruitment efforts via a dedicated career subdomain, indicating organizational development and sustainability focus.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is properly enforced, and privacy-conscious analytics configurations are in place. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents a gap in defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are published, limiting transparency and user confidence in security incident handling. Incident response readiness is not publicly documented, which could delay mitigation in case of security events. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a cultural institution but could be improved by adopting best practices in security headers and incident response communication.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness for security incidents.
  3. Create and maintain a vulnerability disclosure page or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerable versions are in use.
  5. Enhance WHOIS data availability or transparency to improve domain registration trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Contao CMS and uses a modern front-end stack including jQuery, jQuery UI, Slick Carousel, Magnific Popup, and FontAwesome Pro icons. It integrates Weglot for multilingual support and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing tags. The site is mobile responsive, accessible, and optimized for SEO with proper meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and preloading of fonts. No major technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The site could benefit from enhanced security headers and further performance tuning for faster load times.
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.
