Rolph.de is a regional public transport information portal dedicated to mobility in Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany. It provides news, updates, and resources related to local public transportation, including bus networks and the Deutschlandticket. The website targets residents and travelers in the region seeking reliable and up-to-date transit information. The platform appears to be affiliated with regional transport authorities or government entities, supported by references to official ministries and verified Facebook domain ownership. Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Slick Carousel for UI components. It integrates common marketing and analytics tools including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and advertising networks like DoubleClick and The Trade Desk. The site implements a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism and is mobile-optimized with good accessibility features. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses cookie consent opt-in mechanisms, but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies or incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The domain registration data is consistent and appropriate for a public service website, enhancing trustworthiness. Overall, Rolph.de presents a professional, secure, and privacy-conscious platform serving the transportation sector in Rheinland-Pfalz. Strategic improvements could include adding explicit security headers, publishing terms of service and security policies, and providing direct contact information to enhance transparency and user trust.

Priority findings

6 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Rolph.de operates as an important regional information portal within the transportation sector, focusing on public transit in Rheinland-Pfalz. Its business model centers on providing authoritative news, service updates, and resources to residents and travelers, likely funded or supported by regional government or transport authorities. The site’s content and partnerships indicate a strong regional market position with a focus on public service rather than commercial revenue generation. The integration of marketing and analytics tools suggests an interest in user engagement and service improvement. The absence of direct commercial services or e-commerce indicates a primarily informational and service-oriented platform. Growth potential lies in expanding digital services, improving user engagement, and enhancing accessibility and transparency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption and GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms. However, it lacks several security best practices such as implementation of security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, etc.) and published security policies or incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The use of reputable third-party analytics and advertising services is balanced with user consent mechanisms. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers for security or abuse reporting is a gap. Overall, the site is secure for general public use but could improve transparency and defense-in-depth measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-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. Add a terms of service page to clarify user rights and responsibilities.
  4. Consider providing direct contact information (email or phone) for general inquiries and security incidents.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and update CMS and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and widely used content management system, indicating a stable and scalable infrastructure. Frontend technologies include jQuery, Slick Carousel, and Parsley.js for form validation, providing a responsive and interactive user experience. The site uses Google Tag Manager to manage analytics and marketing tags efficiently. Cookie consent is managed by a custom dp_cookieconsent plugin, ensuring GDPR compliance. Performance is moderate with preloading of fonts and asynchronous loading of scripts. Accessibility is addressed with skip links and ARIA attributes. No major technical debt or outdated technologies were detected, but security headers are missing which is a technical risk. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found in the content.
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.
