Security score

67/100

Risk levelMedium

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

Polarlicht Mediengestaltung GmbH is a small media design company based in Wiesbaden, Germany, specializing in web and logo design services. The company targets businesses and individuals seeking professional media design solutions. The website is built on the Wix platform, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity with use of modern JavaScript libraries and error monitoring via Sentry. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, although the professional website and structured data suggest a genuine business presence. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS usage and some security best practices, but lacks security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies. Overall, the site is accessible and functional but would benefit from enhanced compliance and security measures.

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

4 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 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  3. 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

The company operates in the media sector, focusing on design services such as website and logo creation. Its business model is service-oriented, catering to local or regional clients. The website's structured data and branding consistency indicate a professional approach, but the lack of detailed contact information and absence of privacy or terms policies may limit trust for some users. No partnerships or subsidiaries were identified. The company appears to be a small-sized entity without publicly disclosed founding year or parent company.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and uses Sentry for error monitoring, reflecting some security awareness. However, no security headers were detected, and there is no evidence of formal security policies or incident response contacts. The lack of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps, particularly regarding GDPR. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analysis. The security score is moderate but could be improved by implementing standard security headers, formal policies, and better transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and transparency.
  4. Include clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility.
  5. Establish an incident response policy and provide security contact channels to enhance trust and preparedness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on Wix, utilizing Wix's proprietary CMS and infrastructure. It uses modern JavaScript polyfills and libraries to ensure compatibility and performance. The site is mobile optimized and has good design quality. Performance is moderate, with no critical technical issues detected. SEO is basic with proper meta tags and structured data. Accessibility features are minimal but present. The technical stack is typical for small business websites using Wix, with opportunities to improve security and compliance implementations.
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.
