Waldreport is a German non-profit environmental initiative dedicated to protecting forests by raising awareness of forest threats, networking nature enthusiasts, and collecting data on forest damage. The website is well-structured, professionally designed, and targets environmentally conscious individuals and organizations in Germany. It leverages partnerships with reputable environmental groups such as Greenpeace and Robin Wood to enhance its credibility and outreach. Technically, the site is built on Drupal 10 with Bootstrap 5.2 and uses Matomo for privacy-conscious analytics. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. Security posture is moderate with room for improvement in security headers and incident response transparency. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious content were detected, and the domain registration data aligns with the website's purpose, indicating legitimacy.

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. 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

    • 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

  2. 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"

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 waldreport.de, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for waldreport.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

Waldreport operates as a small non-profit focused on forest conservation in Germany, relying on community engagement and partnerships with established environmental organizations. Its business model centers on advocacy, data collection, and public awareness rather than commercial revenue. The website content and partner ecosystem suggest a strong position within the environmental non-profit sector in Germany. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a preference for controlled communication via contact forms. The site’s technical infrastructure is modern and supports its mission effectively.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and implements a cookie consent banner with opt-in, reflecting good privacy practices. However, no explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are published. Security headers are not evident from the provided data, indicating potential areas for enhancement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-profit informational site but could be improved to align with best practices and increase trustworthiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Consider adding a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure page to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance contact information availability by including verified company emails or phone numbers to improve user trust and support.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10 CMS with Bootstrap 5.2 for responsive design, ensuring good mobile optimization and accessibility. Matomo analytics is used, favoring privacy over more invasive tracking. The site loads external CSS and JS resources efficiently, including CDN usage for Bootstrap. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified but uses UI-DNS name servers. Performance is moderate with no evident blocking or errors. The site includes a cookie compliance banner with opt-in, reflecting GDPR awareness. Overall, the technical implementation is modern and suitable for the site's non-profit advocacy purpose.
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.
