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

Abortion Without Borders is a non-profit initiative launched in 2019 that collaborates with nine organizations across multiple countries to provide comprehensive abortion support services. These services include information dissemination, financial assistance, translation, accommodation, and emotional support primarily targeting people in Poland and displaced persons from Ukraine. The website serves as a central hub for accessing these services and connecting with partner organizations. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the GeneratePress theme and Gravity Forms for contact and data collection, with FundraiseUp integrated for donations. The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile use, with basic accessibility and SEO features. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and spam protection in forms, but lacks advanced security headers and explicit privacy or cookie policies, which are compliance gaps. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professional, with clear contact information and partner links, but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and security hardening.

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

9 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

  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

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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 organization occupies a niche non-profit market focused on abortion access support in restrictive environments, leveraging a collaborative model with multiple partner organizations to extend reach and resources. Their business model relies on donations and volunteer support, targeting vulnerable populations in Poland and Ukraine. The website reflects a transparent and mission-driven approach with clear service offerings and contact channels. Growth indicators include a significant increase in calls and financial assistance from year one to year two. The partnership ecosystem is robust, involving recognized abortion support networks across Europe. Strategic observations suggest the organization prioritizes accessibility, trust, and non-judgmental support, which strengthens their market position in a sensitive and regulated sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and use of honeypot anti-spam measures in forms. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, indicating potential gaps in transparency and readiness. The site does not expose sensitive data or use vulnerable libraries based on the provided content. Compliance with GDPR is limited due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security posture is functional but could be improved to better protect user data and enhance trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance security posture.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information and security policy details on the website.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization for better user experience and reach.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using the GeneratePress theme, which is known for performance and flexibility. Gravity Forms is used for form handling, providing robust data collection capabilities with spam protection. FundraiseUp is integrated for donation processing, indicating use of third-party fundraising technology. The site loads external resources from reputable CDNs and uses lazy loading for images to optimize performance. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and accessible navigation. However, the site lacks advanced SEO features and accessibility enhancements. Hosting details are limited, but the registrar is Tucows.com Co., a reputable domain registrar. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid for a small non-profit but has room for modernization and security improvements.
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.
