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

3 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 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 operates in the education sector, specifically coding and programming training. It leverages a free education model with peer-to-peer learning and gamification to attract a broad audience, including non-technical individuals. The school has a strong market position in Rome with over 500 students since 2021 and a high job placement rate. Partnerships with the international 42 network and a dedicated application portal support its operations. The business model relies on free access, likely supported by partnerships or sponsorships. The website's content and social media presence reinforce credibility and engagement with prospective students. Growth indicators include upcoming open days and planned admission phases. The lack of terms of service and security policies suggests room for maturity in compliance and governance.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses a comprehensive cookie consent banner with granular controls, indicating good privacy compliance. Multiple third-party tracking pixels and analytics tools are integrated, which increases the attack surface but are standard for marketing-driven sites. No security headers were detected in the HTML content, which may indicate a need for server-side configuration improvements. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were found in the source. The absence of published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests limited transparency in security governance. Overall, the security posture is moderate to good but could be enhanced by adding security headers, publishing security policies, and establishing a vulnerability disclosure process.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Create and host a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and tracking pixels to minimize security risks.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization to improve user experience and search engine ranking.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS, utilizing jQuery and nanogallery2 for UI components, and Font Awesome for icons. It integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, TikTok Pixel, and Matomo Analytics. The cookie consent is managed by Iubenda, providing granular user control. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses modern CSS and JavaScript libraries. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed and accessibility. No hosting provider was explicitly identified from the HTML content. The site uses canonical URLs and meta tags for SEO but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and SEO best practices. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and adequate for the business needs but has room for optimization and security hardening.
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.
