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.

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.

Business context
Business profile
Positioned as a key regional non-profit, the APNIC Foundation leverages partnerships and funding to drive digital development in Asia Pacific. Its business model centers on grant-making and community support rather than commercial revenue. The foundation's market position is strengthened by its association with APNIC and its focus on impactful projects. The website's content and social media presence indicate active engagement with the community and transparency through annual reports and strategic plans. Growth indicators include ongoing projects and significant investment figures highlighted in reports.
Security posture
The website employs HTTPS and uses Cloudflare DNS, providing a solid baseline for security. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no explicit security headers were detected, which could expose the site to certain risks. There is no published security or incident response policy, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file was found. Analytics are managed via Google Tag Manager and Sentry, indicating monitoring but also requiring careful privacy management. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for improvement in DNS security and policy transparency.
Recommendations
Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and preparedness.
Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
Regularly audit third-party scripts and analytics tools to ensure privacy compliance and minimize tracking risks.

Notes
The website is built on WordPress 6.8.1 using the GeneratePress theme and Gutena Accordion plugin, indicating a modern and maintainable CMS infrastructure. Hosting details are not explicit but DNS is managed via Cloudflare, suggesting reliable performance and security. Google Tag Manager and Sentry are used for analytics and error tracking, respectively. The site is mobile-optimized with good navigation clarity and professional design. Performance is moderate, with potential for improvement through optimization and enhanced SEO practices. Accessibility features are basic but present.
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.
