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

The website www.stiftungsbericht.de represents the Niedersächsische Lotto-Sport-Stiftung, a non-profit foundation established in 2009 by the Lower Saxony government through the merger of two prior foundations. The site primarily publishes annual foundation reports for public access, targeting a general audience interested in the foundation's activities and impact. The foundation holds a stable market position as a regional non-profit entity in Germany. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including JavaScript ES modules, CSS, and the htmx framework, hosted on servers associated with kasserver.com. It uses Matomo analytics configured to disable cookies, reflecting a privacy-conscious approach. The site is mobile optimized with good SEO and accessibility basics, though some accessibility features could be improved. Security-wise, HTTPS is enforced with no visible sensitive data exposure, but lacks explicit security headers and formal security policies published on the site. No forms or contact details are present, limiting direct user engagement and incident response readiness. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but could enhance privacy and security 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.

Priority findings

9 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

  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 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';…

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 foundation operates in the non-profit sector focused on sports and lottery-related social initiatives in Lower Saxony, Germany. Its business model centers on transparency and public reporting through annual reports, supporting accountability and stakeholder engagement. The website serves as an information portal rather than a transactional platform, with no evident revenue streams beyond foundation funding. The target audience includes government entities, beneficiaries, and the general public interested in foundation activities. The partnership with tabmag.de for website generation and hosting indicates a professional digital ecosystem. Growth indicators are stable with consistent annual report publication. The lack of direct contact information or social media presence suggests a controlled communication strategy emphasizing formal reporting over broad marketing.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enforced and use of privacy-respecting analytics (Matomo with cookies disabled). However, the absence of explicit security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts represent gaps in security maturity. No forms or input fields reduce attack surface but also limit user interaction. No vulnerability disclosures or security.txt files are present, which could hinder coordinated vulnerability reporting. Overall, the site is low risk but would benefit from enhanced security transparency and formalized policies to align with GDPR and NIS2 compliance expectations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear and comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement and expose security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Add explicit contact information for security incidents, including abuse@ or security@ email addresses.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and provide more user engagement options such as contact forms or social media links.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web standards including ES modules and CSS with htmx for dynamic content loading. It is generated by the tabmag.de platform, indicating a CMS or site generator specialized for publishing. Hosting is provided by kasserver.com, a known German hosting provider. Performance is moderate with preconnect hints and module preload optimizations. Mobile optimization is good with responsive images and viewport settings. SEO is supported by canonical links, Open Graph, and Twitter card metadata. However, no explicit accessibility ARIA roles or landmarks beyond main role are detected, and no security headers are visible in the HTML source. The site uses Matomo analytics configured to disable cookies, enhancing privacy. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could improve in security header implementation and 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.
