44/100

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

Weingut Hauser is a traditional German winery located in Bötzingen am Kaiserstuhl with over 200 years of history. The company specializes in producing and selling a variety of regional wines including Burgunder, Spätburgunder, Müller-Thurgau, Riesling, and Gewürztraminer, as well as pilzwiderstandsfähige (fungus-resistant) grape varieties. Their business model focuses on quality wine production, direct sales, and wine tasting experiences, targeting wine enthusiasts and regional customers. The website reflects a well-established small business with consistent branding and a clear presentation of their offerings. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Enfold theme, hosted on Kasserver infrastructure. It employs standard web technologies such as jQuery and MediaElement.js, and includes SEO optimizations and mobile responsiveness. The site uses HTTPS with good SSL configuration and implements a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism. However, there is room for improvement in accessibility and security headers. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and has implemented cookie consent, but lacks explicit security policies and incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The absence of terms of service and security policy pages suggests an opportunity to enhance trust and compliance. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from additional formal documentation and security headers. The overall risk assessment is low, with no signs of malicious activity or blocking mechanisms. Strategic recommendations include publishing a security policy, adding incident response contacts, enhancing security headers, and maintaining up-to-date software. These steps will improve compliance, security posture, and user trust.

Priority findings

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

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

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
    • 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
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  2. 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

  3. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Weak SPF Policy

      SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email

      What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email 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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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 · found on this site
  • 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

Weingut Hauser operates in the retail sector specializing in wine production and sales. Its competitive advantage lies in its long-standing tradition, regional reputation, and focus on quality and sustainable viticulture. The business model combines production with direct customer engagement through wine tastings and sales. Revenue streams likely include wine and spirits sales, tasting events, and possibly wholesale. The target customers are wine consumers interested in regional German wines, both casual buyers and connoisseurs. The company appears to have a stable local presence with potential for growth through online visibility. No explicit partnerships or subsidiaries were identified, indicating a focused family-owned operation. The website content and structure support a professional image aligned with their market niche.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent mechanisms comply with GDPR requirements. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy and incident response contacts indicates gaps in formal security governance. Security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options are not detected, which could improve protection against common web attacks. The site uses standard WordPress components, which require regular updates to mitigate plugin or theme vulnerabilities. Overall, the security culture appears basic but functional, with room for enhancement in documentation and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a formal security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Add incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement additional HTTP security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to latest secure versions.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a mature and widely used CMS platform, WordPress, with the Enfold theme providing a modern and responsive design. The technology stack includes jQuery and MediaElement.js for multimedia content. Hosting is provided by Kasserver, as indicated by the nameservers. Performance is moderate with minified CSS and JS assets cached for faster loading. SEO is addressed with meta tags and canonical URLs. The site is mobile optimized and uses standard web fonts and scripts. There is some commented-out code indicating potential unused plugins or features. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and security header implementations to reduce technical debt and improve resilience.
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.
