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

8 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. 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

  3. 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';…

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 portal serves a niche government sector focused on youth animation in Luxembourg, providing training and certification services, resource lending, and event management. Its business model is informational and service-oriented, supported by government funding. The partnership with chalets.lu and the parent organization Service national de la jeunesse strengthens its ecosystem. The site’s use of WooCommerce suggests some transactional capabilities, possibly for event registration or material rental. The target audience is clearly defined, and the site maintains good content quality and user experience, supporting growth and engagement within its sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and GDPR-compliant cookie management via Complianz. Use of Matomo analytics on a dedicated server reduces privacy risks. However, the absence of explicit security headers like CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options in the provided data indicates room for improvement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The site uses nonce tokens for AJAX calls, enhancing form security. Incident response and security policies are not explicitly published, which is common for government portals but could be improved for transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Regularly audit and update all WordPress plugins and core to mitigate vulnerabilities, especially WooCommerce and Rentman plugin components.
  4. Enhance contact information visibility by adding verified company emails and phone numbers for support and security reporting.
  5. Continue monitoring and improving privacy compliance, including data retention policies and user consent mechanisms.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a stable and widely used CMS platform, WordPress 6.8.1, with a modern tech stack including Bootstrap, jQuery, FontAwesome, and Google Maps API. It uses WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality and Contact Form 7 for form management. The Complianz GDPR plugin manages cookie consent with an opt-in mechanism. The site loads multiple CSS and JS assets efficiently and includes accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization. Mobile responsiveness and SEO are well addressed through Yoast SEO and responsive design. Hosting provider details are not explicit but likely government or trusted hosting. Overall, the technical implementation supports a professional and functional 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.
