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

The website www.academymuseum.org appears to represent a museum or cultural institution, likely related to an academy or art exhibitions. However, the provided HTML content is minimal, lacking visible business descriptions, contact information, or detailed content. The site uses modern web technologies such as Next.js and React, with Stripe.js integrated for payment processing, indicating some e-commerce or ticketing functionality. Despite this, the site lacks visible privacy, cookie, or terms of service policies, and no contact details or social media links are present in the analyzed content. The WHOIS data is unavailable due to a malformed request, preventing verification of domain registration details and reducing trustworthiness. Security posture is weak, with no detected security headers or SSL configuration details, and no forms or user input fields are visible to assess data protection practices. Overall, the site is accessible without WAF or security challenges but provides limited information for a comprehensive security and compliance assessment.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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 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';…
  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

    • 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

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 behind the domain likely operates in the cultural or museum sector, targeting visitors interested in art and exhibitions. The use of Stripe.js suggests online payment capabilities, possibly for ticket sales or donations. The lack of detailed business information, contact data, or policies limits insight into market positioning or revenue streams. The site appears to be a small-scale or early-stage digital presence with moderate branding consistency but poor content quality. No partnerships or subsidiaries are identifiable from the content. The absence of privacy and security policies may impact user trust and compliance with regulations such as GDPR.

Security posture

The current security posture is weak due to the absence of HTTPS confirmation, security headers, and visible security best practices. The lack of privacy and cookie policies indicates potential compliance gaps. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is present. The integration of third-party scripts like Stripe.js and Facebook Pixel introduces tracking and payment processing risks that require proper security controls. The missing WHOIS data and lack of registrant transparency further reduce trust. Recommendations include implementing HTTPS, adding security headers, publishing privacy and cookie policies, and establishing incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate to secure all site traffic.
  2. Add essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and inform users about data collection and usage.
  4. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and user trust.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contacts to demonstrate security maturity and readiness.

  5. No security headers or SSL configuration details available from provided data.
  6. WHOIS data is incomplete and does not provide registrar or registrant information.
  7. No contact emails, phone numbers, or physical addresses found in the HTML content.
  8. No social media links explicitly found in the HTML content.
  9. Website appears to be a static or pre-rendered Next.js site with minimal content.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Next.js and React frameworks, indicating a modern JavaScript-based single-page application or server-side rendered site. Stripe.js is used for payment processing, and Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel are integrated for analytics and marketing. The site loads multiple JavaScript chunks and CSS assets asynchronously, suggesting a modular and optimized build. However, the lack of visible meta tags, structured data, or SEO optimization reduces discoverability. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic, with no explicit ARIA or accessibility features detected. Hosting provider and CMS details are not discernible from the provided data. Performance is moderate based on script loading patterns but could be improved with better content and optimization.
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.
