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

The Zweckverband Regionale Deponie Schwarzwald-Baar-Heuberg operates as a regional public authority responsible for the planning, construction, and management of landfill facilities for non-recyclable mineral waste in the Schwarzwald-Baar-Heuberg region of Germany. The website serves as an informational portal for residents, local government, and stakeholders, providing updates on construction progress, legal documents, and contact information. The organization is positioned as a key regional player in waste management with a clear public service mandate. Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS, leveraging common web technologies such as jQuery and Slick Slider for UI components. It is hosted on Schlund Technologies infrastructure, uses HTTPS, and implements a cookie consent mechanism with Matomo analytics for privacy-conscious visitor tracking. The site demonstrates moderate performance and good mobile optimization, though some improvements in accessibility and security headers could enhance its technical maturity. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses cookie consent to comply with GDPR. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests room for improvement in security governance. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a public sector website but could benefit from enhanced transparency and technical controls. The overall risk assessment is low, with the website presenting a trustworthy and professional front for the Zweckverband. Strategic recommendations include implementing security headers, publishing security policies, and maintaining up-to-date software components to further strengthen security and compliance.

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

5 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 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';…
  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
  3. Network security

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

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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 Zweckverband operates in the government sector, focusing on regional waste disposal services. Its business model is that of a public utility association formed by multiple counties to ensure long-term waste management infrastructure. The organization targets local residents, government officials, and waste management professionals. The website reflects a stable regional presence with clear communication channels and public transparency through legal documents and announcements. There is no indication of commercial revenue streams or subsidiaries. The partnership ecosystem appears limited to regional government entities. Growth indicators include ongoing construction projects and public updates. The organization maintains a focused operational scope with a strong emphasis on regulatory compliance and public service.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and a cookie consent mechanism in place. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. There is no visible incident response contact or vulnerability disclosure policy, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. GDPR compliance is supported by a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent. The use of Matomo analytics indicates privacy-conscious tracking. Overall, the security culture appears basic but functional, suitable for a regional government website.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and CMS components to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance with accessibility standards and broaden user inclusivity.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and widely used open-source content management system. It uses jQuery and Slick Slider for interactive UI elements, along with Lightbox and JustifiedGallery for media presentation. Hosting is provided by Schlund Technologies, as indicated by the nameservers. The site uses HTTPS with a canonical URL properly set. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization evident. SEO is basic with meta tags and Open Graph tags present but no JSON-LD structured data detected. Accessibility is basic, with room for improvement. The technical stack is stable but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
