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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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 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';…

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.

Breach exposure

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention sportregionhannover.de, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for sportregionhannover.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 holds a strong regional market position as a key cooperative entity in the sports non-profit sector in Hannover, Germany. Its business model focuses on supporting sports clubs through education, events, and development programs. The partnership ecosystem includes well-known regional sports bodies, enhancing credibility and reach. The website content and linked domains reflect a stable and professional operation with clear target segments. Growth opportunities may include enhanced digital engagement and expanded service offerings. The absence of phone contact and limited social media presence suggests potential areas for improved outreach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid baseline security posture with HTTPS and secure form submissions. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against certain web attacks. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, which could hinder timely security communication. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be improved by implementing recommended headers, publishing security policies, and adding a vulnerability disclosure mechanism.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options) to enhance protection.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to improve privacy compliance.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to increase transparency and readiness.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance contact options by including phone numbers and social media links to improve user engagement and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on AmphiCMS using HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and jQuery with Owl Carousel for UI elements. The site is mobile-optimized and has good SEO metadata including Open Graph tags. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. The technical stack is somewhat dated but stable. There is no evidence of modern JavaScript frameworks or advanced backend technologies. Accessibility is basic but functional. The site lacks advanced security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, indicating some technical debt in security and privacy implementation. Hosting details are not explicit but DNS uses ns.udag.de/net/org name servers, suggesting a third-party hosting provider.
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.
