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

Tourismusverein Tating operates as a regional tourism association promoting vacation opportunities in the village of Tating and surrounding Eiderstedt peninsula near the North Sea coast of Germany. The website serves as an informational and accommodation directory platform targeting tourists interested in rural and coastal holidays. The business model focuses on local tourism promotion without direct e-commerce or booking functionalities. Technically, the site is built using the Zeta Producer CMS, employs standard web technologies including JavaScript and CSS, and is hosted on a known German hosting provider's infrastructure. The site is mobile optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, but lacks advanced security headers and explicit incident response policies. Privacy compliance is good with a clear privacy policy and cookie management. Overall, the website is trustworthy, professional, and safe for general audiences.

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

5 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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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 is positioned as a small, local tourism association focused on promoting the Tating region and nearby attractions such as St. Peter-Ording. It leverages a content-driven model to attract visitors and provide accommodation listings including farms, holiday homes, and camping. The target customers are tourists seeking nature, rural experiences, and seaside vacations. The website does not show signs of monetization through advertising or affiliate programs, indicating a non-commercial or community-driven approach. Partnerships or subsidiaries are not evident. The association maintains consistent branding and content quality, supporting its role as a trusted regional tourism resource.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is properly configured ensuring encrypted communications. A cookie consent mechanism is implemented supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces defense in depth. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no contact channels for security issues are provided. No known vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a low-risk tourism informational site but could be improved to enhance protection and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to improve security posture.
  2. Publish a security policy and provide a dedicated contact channel for incident reporting.
  3. Add explicit contact information (email, phone) on the website to improve business credibility and user trust.
  4. Consider integrating analytics with privacy-respecting configurations to better understand user behavior while maintaining compliance.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving legal requirements and best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional CMS (Zeta Producer) with a standard tech stack including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and jQuery-based plugins like FlexSlider for image carousels. Hosting is provided by a reputable German provider (rzone.de). The site is mobile responsive and includes web font loading optimizations. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. SEO is supported by meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic but could be enhanced. No modern JavaScript frameworks or advanced backend technologies were detected, indicating a straightforward, maintainable infrastructure suitable for the site's scope.
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.
