Security score

80/100

Risk levelLow

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

Amalgamated Charitable Foundation is a US-based nonprofit organization specializing in philanthropic fund management, including donor advised funds, combined impact funds, and rapid response funds. The foundation has moved over $1 billion since 2018 to support social justice and equity causes. The website is professionally designed using Drupal 9, with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. It integrates common third-party tools such as Google Analytics and AddToAny for sharing. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and domain transfer protections, but lacks DNSSEC and security headers. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the website is trustworthy and credible but could improve compliance and security transparency.

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.

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 foundation targets mission-driven donors, nonprofits, and activists, positioning itself as a trusted philanthropic intermediary. Its business model focuses on fund administration and grantmaking services. The presence of donor login portals and partnership with grant matching initiatives indicates a mature ecosystem. The organization is medium-sized with a clear US presence and a domain age consistent with its founding date. The website content and structure support its mission and provide clear service descriptions, though contact details are limited to a contact form.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and has domain transfer protections, which are positive security indicators. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or Strict-Transport-Security reduces its security maturity. No incident response or security policy information is published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present. The use of third-party scripts requires ongoing monitoring to mitigate risks. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced with additional controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to improve GDPR and privacy compliance.
  3. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden the website against common attacks.
  4. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities.

  6. External links mostly to partner or service-related domains
  7. No suspicious or malicious content detected
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 9, a modern and widely used CMS, indicating a solid technical foundation. It uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and AddToAny for social sharing, reflecting standard marketing and tracking practices. The site is hosted behind Cloudflare DNS but does not use DNSSEC. Performance is moderate with responsive design and basic accessibility features. SEO optimization is basic with meta description and canonical links present. The site lacks advanced security headers and privacy compliance features, which are areas for technical improvement.
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.
