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

The website represents the Honorary Consulate of Slovenia for the German states of Hessen, Rheinland-Pfalz, and Saarland. It serves as an official governmental representation providing consular services, cultural information, and support to residents and businesses in these regions. The site is professionally designed with consistent branding and clear navigation, targeting German-speaking users interested in Slovenian affairs. The business model is governmental and service-oriented, focusing on diplomatic and cultural liaison functions. Technically, the website is built on TYPO3 CMS with modern frontend technologies including Bootstrap and jQuery. It is mobile optimized and performs moderately well, with good SEO and accessibility basics. The site uses HTTPS and implements a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR, but lacks advanced security headers and explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies. From a security perspective, the site shows good practices such as encrypted connections and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, it could improve by adding security headers, publishing security policies, and enhancing accessibility. No tracking or advertising scripts are present, indicating a privacy-conscious approach. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional, suitable for its governmental consular role. The domain WHOIS data is limited but consistent with the official nature of the site. The risk level is low, with recommendations focused on enhancing security posture and compliance transparency.

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 Honorary Consulate operates in the government sector, providing consular and cultural services to Slovenian nationals and interested parties in Hessen, Rheinland-Pfalz, and Saarland. Its market position is that of an official diplomatic representation, which lends it high credibility. The business model is non-commercial, focused on public service and bilateral relations. Revenue streams are not applicable. The target customers are residents, businesses, and cultural organizations in the specified German states. The website links to partner domains such as the Slovenian Embassy in Berlin and Slovenian cultural associations, indicating a cooperative ecosystem. Growth indicators are not evident from the site. The consulate maintains a clear and consistent brand presence with official logos and contact information.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent is properly implemented, supporting GDPR compliance. No security headers were detected, which is a gap that could expose the site to certain web attacks. There is no published incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which limits transparency and readiness perception. No vulnerable or outdated libraries were found in the frontend stack. The absence of tracking and advertising scripts reduces privacy risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small governmental site but could be improved by adopting additional security best practices and publishing relevant policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and vulnerability disclosure page to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  3. Add explicit contact information for security incidents or abuse reports.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and CMS components to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust and widely used content management system, combined with modern frontend technologies like Bootstrap 5 and jQuery 3.6.0. The site loads with moderate performance and is mobile optimized, providing a good user experience across devices. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and canonical URLs. No analytics or tracking scripts are present, indicating minimal data collection. The site uses a cookie consent banner compliant with GDPR. Hosting details are not explicitly available, but the domain uses generic DNS providers. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from improved security headers and enhanced accessibility compliance.
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.
