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

5 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

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

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…
  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

Acri holds a strong market position as a representative body for banking foundations and savings banks in Italy. Its business model focuses on non-profit coordination and social impact through funding and joint projects. The organization benefits from a broad partnership ecosystem, including European philanthropic networks and sustainable finance forums. The website content and linked domains indicate active collaboration and a focus on social utility, innovation, and cultural promotion. Growth indicators include ongoing large-scale initiatives and significant asset management. The presence of multiple analytics and marketing tools suggests an interest in audience engagement and transparency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS, cookie consent, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, it lacks publicly available security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms such as security.txt. The use of third-party scripts and analytics requires ongoing monitoring to mitigate risks. Security headers are not explicitly detected, which could be improved. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-profit organization but could benefit from enhanced transparency and formalized security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response information on the website.
  2. Implement and expose a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  3. Add and configure security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and plugins to ensure no vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility compliance to improve inclusivity and legal adherence.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for scripting. It employs popular plugins such as Yoast SEO for search engine optimization and Slider Revolution for dynamic content presentation. Analytics are handled via Google Analytics and Matomo, indicating a balanced approach to user tracking and privacy. The site loads moderately fast with good mobile optimization but could improve accessibility features. Hosting details are not explicit, but the presence of multiple CDN and external resources suggests a distributed content delivery approach. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the organization's needs but has room for modernization 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.
