Risk levelMedium

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

STRATO GmbH appears to be a German web hosting and domain registration company, as indicated by the website title and metadata. However, the WHOIS data for the domain www.strato.com is unavailable, showing 'No match' in the registry, which raises questions about the domain's registration status or WHOIS privacy restrictions. The website content is minimal and truncated, with no visible privacy, cookie, or terms of service policies, and no contact information or security policies are found. Technically, the site uses older JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 2.2.4 and AngularJS 1.5.6, and the CMS is identified as IMPERIA 8.6.0. There is no evidence of modern security headers or SSL configuration details. Overall, the site shows basic technical implementation but lacks critical compliance and security information, resulting in a low trust and legitimacy score.

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

4 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 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

The business model focuses on providing domain registration, web hosting, and cloud services primarily to German customers. The company targets both business and individual customers. The market position appears established in Germany, but no detailed information about company size, founding year, or parent/subsidiary relationships is available. The lack of visible contact details and policies on the website limits the ability to assess customer support and compliance maturity. No partner or subsidiary domains were identified from the content.

Security posture

The security posture is weak due to missing WHOIS data, absence of security headers, no visible HTTPS enforcement details, and lack of privacy and cookie policies. The use of outdated JavaScript libraries may expose the site to known vulnerabilities. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is present. The site likely lacks comprehensive security best practices and compliance with GDPR or other regulations. The security score is low, and recommendations include implementing HTTPS, security headers, updated libraries, and clear privacy and security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTPS with strong TLS configuration.
  2. Add and maintain comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms.
  3. Update JavaScript libraries to current secure versions to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Publish clear contact information including security incident response contacts.
  5. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses IMPERIA CMS version 8.6.0 and includes jQuery 2.2.4 and AngularJS 1.5.6, which are outdated and may pose security risks. The HTML content is partially truncated, indicating possible content delivery issues or blocking. No modern performance optimizations or accessibility features are evident. SEO optimization is basic with minimal meta tags. The site shows moderate performance but lacks mobile optimization and accessibility enhancements.
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.
