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

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. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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.

Add-on

Leaked records that mention sportbund-bielefeld.de, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for sportbund-bielefeld.de right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The organization targets sports clubs, youth, adults, and elderly populations within Bielefeld, offering services such as sports education, event organization, and community initiatives. Its business model is non-profit, focusing on service provision rather than commercial revenue. The website reflects a consistent brand and provides clear contact channels, enhancing credibility. Partnerships, such as with the Berufskolleg für Gymnastik, indicate a collaborative ecosystem. The use of modern web technologies and GDPR-compliant features suggests a digitally mature organization. Growth indicators include active program offerings and community engagement. The lack of terms of service and security policy pages may be areas for future development to strengthen governance and compliance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data. Cookie consent is implemented with granular control, supporting GDPR compliance. However, no explicit security policy or incident response contact information is published, which could hinder transparency and readiness in case of security incidents. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager is managed with consent mechanisms, reducing privacy risks. Security headers were not explicitly detected in the provided data, suggesting potential for enhancement. Overall, the site is secure for its purpose but would benefit from formalizing security governance documentation and improving header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Add incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email) to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Implement and verify security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding a terms of service page to clarify user agreements and legal protections.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, leveraging Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for interactivity. It uses slick slider and fancybox for media presentation, Zebra Datepicker for date inputs, and integrates ReadSpeaker for accessibility. Hosting is provided by Alfahosting, inferred from nameservers. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and canonical links. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented via a specialized TYPO3 extension, ensuring GDPR compliance. Technical risks are minimal, but the absence of explicit security headers and incident response details suggests areas for improvement. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid and appropriate for a regional non-profit organization.
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.
