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

Stopcrime GmbH operates a specialized platform aimed at preventing banking fraud and money laundering by providing an international, independent infrastructure for financial institutions to share alerts about suspicious accounts and transactions. The website is professionally designed, primarily in German, and targets financial service providers and banks. The business model revolves around a membership network that enables participants to report suspicious accounts and check transactions in real-time via API, enhancing fraud detection and coordination among banks. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Elementor page builder, with additional plugins such as TranslatePress for multilingual support and Usercentrics for GDPR-compliant consent management. The site is mobile-optimized and performs moderately well, though there is room for improvement in accessibility and SEO. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and uses consent management but lacks visible advanced security headers and explicit incident response contact information. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be enhanced by implementing additional security headers and publishing clear security policies. The WHOIS data is privacy protected, which is reasonable given the nature of the business. No suspicious patterns were detected. The site does not expose sensitive data or contain vulnerabilities visible from the front-end. Privacy compliance is good with clear policies and consent mechanisms. Strategic recommendations include improving security header implementation, publishing incident response contacts, enhancing SEO and accessibility, and providing clearer contact information to boost business credibility and trust.

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 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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.

Technical appendix

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

Business context

Business profile

Stopcrime GmbH occupies a niche market within the financial sector, focusing on fraud and money laundering prevention through a collaborative network of financial institutions. Its competitive advantage lies in real-time transaction checking and alert sharing, which reduces losses and operational costs for banks. The business model is membership-based, targeting banks and financial service providers who benefit from faster fraud detection and account closure. The company appears to be small-sized, operating primarily in Germany, with a professional online presence but limited public contact details. Growth potential exists through expanding the network and enhancing API services. The partnership ecosystem is not explicitly detailed on the site, and no related domains or subsidiaries were identified.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and GDPR-compliant consent management via Usercentrics. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options, which are recommended best practices. No incident response or security contact information is publicly available, which could hinder timely reporting and handling of security issues. The site uses common WordPress plugins, which require regular updates to mitigate vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities were detected in the front-end analysis. Compliance with GDPR is evident, but additional transparency on security policies and certifications would strengthen the security culture and trustworthiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish clear incident response and security contact information to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve trust.
  3. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance SEO and accessibility features to improve user experience and search engine ranking.
  5. Provide more detailed business contact information and certifications to increase credibility and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using Elementor for page building, which allows for flexible and responsive design. It integrates TranslatePress for multilingual support and Usercentrics for GDPR-compliant cookie consent management. The site loads a variety of CSS and JavaScript assets, including jQuery and Elementor scripts, indicating a standard WordPress setup. Performance is moderate with some motion effects and lazy loading implemented. There is no evidence of advanced hosting or CDN usage from the HTML content. The site is mobile-optimized and uses standard SEO meta tags but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and performance optimizations. No critical technical debt or risks were identified from the front-end analysis.
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.
