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. Network security

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

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  3. 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 Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

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 · found on this site
  • 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

SoVD NRW operates as a regional non-profit social advocacy group with a focus on pension and social law consultation. Its business model revolves around providing free or low-cost advisory services, legal representation, and social support to its members and the public. The organization leverages partnerships with related SoVD regional domains and maintains a visible presence in social media channels to engage its audience. The website content and structure indicate a mature organization with a clear mission and target audience. Revenue streams likely include membership fees and public funding. The partnership ecosystem includes other SoVD regional branches and social service organizations. Growth indicators include active campaigns and social media outreach. Strategic observations suggest continued investment in digital presence and user engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enabled and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. The use of Matomo analytics and Google Tag Manager is transparent and privacy-conscious. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a minor gap. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. Incident response and security policy pages are not present, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. Overall, the security maturity is good for a non-profit organization, with room for enhancements in security headers and formal policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Add a terms of service page to clarify user rights and obligations.
  4. Consider creating and publishing a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a mature and widely used content management system, combined with Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for client-side scripting. Additional libraries include Popper.js, Fancybox for image galleries, and Flatpickr for date inputs. Analytics are handled via Matomo and Google Tag Manager, ensuring comprehensive tracking with privacy considerations. The site loads moderately fast and is optimized for mobile devices with good accessibility features. Hosting appears to be managed via named servers your-server.de and second-ns.de, suggesting a professional hosting environment. Technical debt is minimal, and the site benefits from modern web standards and SEO best practices. Opportunities exist to enhance security headers and formalize security policies.
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.
