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

6 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. 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

  • 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.

Breach exposure

Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention alteafederation.it, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for alteafederation.it right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Altea Federation positions itself as a key player in the technology consulting sector in Italy, targeting businesses undergoing digital transformation. Its business model revolves around consulting and integration services that disrupt traditional business models through technology. The company leverages partnerships with global technology leaders, although no explicit partner domains were found. The website content and metadata emphasize innovation and integration, appealing to medium to large enterprises. The firm appears to maintain a moderate digital maturity with a well-structured website and use of marketing and analytics tools. However, the absence of direct contact information and social media links may limit direct engagement opportunities.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enforced and DNSSEC enabled, reducing risks of interception and DNS spoofing. Cookie consent is managed via reputable third-party services, indicating awareness of privacy regulations. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of published security or incident response policies represent gaps in security maturity. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The site would benefit from enhanced security documentation and explicit policies to improve trust and compliance, especially under GDPR and NIS2 frameworks.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the homepage.
  2. Add explicit security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy) to strengthen browser security.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly review and update WordPress plugins and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with the Avada theme, leveraging popular plugins such as Ninja Forms for form handling and Slider Revolution for visual content. JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Underscore.js are used, alongside Google Tag Manager for analytics and Cookiebot/CookieYes for cookie management. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and basic accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with some potential for optimization in script loading and CSS management. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance tuning to reduce technical debt and improve user experience.
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.
