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

  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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

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

PLATZDORSCH holds a solid market position as a regional digital agency with a broad service portfolio encompassing app development, web design, e-commerce, and digital marketing. Their partnerships with Shopify and Shopware enhance their credibility and service offerings. The company targets businesses aiming for digital transformation, providing end-to-end solutions from consulting to technical implementation and marketing. Their revenue streams likely derive from project-based software development, ongoing marketing services, and hosting/domain management. The website content and structure indicate a focus on quality and client engagement, supported by clear contact channels and professional branding. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified, suggesting an independent operation with a focused regional presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and consent-based analytics tracking. The contact form includes explicit user consent for data processing, aligning with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), X-Frame-Options, and HSTS represents an area for improvement. No incident response or abuse contact information is provided, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. There are no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. The use of third-party services like Google Analytics and Brevo is managed with user consent, supporting privacy compliance. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced header configurations and published security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and incident response procedures to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance form security by integrating CAPTCHA or other anti-bot mechanisms to prevent spam and abuse.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure they are up-to-date and free from known vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages the Astro framework, a modern static site generator, ensuring fast load times and excellent mobile responsiveness. Integration with Google Analytics 4 and Google Tag Manager enables effective marketing analytics while respecting user consent. The site uses modern web standards and includes accessibility considerations. Hosting details are not explicit, but the domain uses GoDaddy nameservers. The site is well-structured with clear navigation and SEO-friendly metadata. There is no detected CMS, indicating a custom or static site approach. Performance is fast, and the site is visually appealing with consistent branding. Technical risks are minimal, though the lack of security headers and formal security policies represent potential areas for technical debt and risk mitigation.
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.
