SMK is a Dutch foundation specializing in the development, management, and assessment of sustainability criteria and certification schemes. With over 30 years of experience, SMK collaborates with a broad network including governments, producers, industry organizations, NGOs, retailers, consultants, academia, and supply chain partners to promote sustainable business practices. Their key services include developing certification schemes, issuing certificates, and supporting communication about sustainability programs. The website is professionally designed, content-rich, and targets stakeholders interested in sustainability certification in the Netherlands. Technically, the site runs on WordPress with multilingual support and integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data, though security headers and incident response information are lacking. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism detected. Overall, the site is trustworthy and well-positioned in its niche, but could improve transparency around security and privacy practices.

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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  2. 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';…

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

SMK holds a strong market position as an established non-profit foundation focused on sustainability certification in the Netherlands. Their competitive advantage lies in their comprehensive certification schemes and long-standing collaborations with diverse stakeholders. The business model centers on standard development and certification management rather than direct commercial sales. Their target customers include governmental bodies, producers, and organizations seeking sustainability certification. The presence of multiple partner certification programs indicates a broad partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators include ongoing projects and active news updates. The website reflects a mature digital presence with good content quality and consistent branding.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is publicly available, which could hinder timely reporting and remediation of security issues. The lack of a cookie consent mechanism may pose GDPR compliance risks. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by implementing recommended headers, publishing security policies, and improving privacy compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options) to strengthen browser security.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish an incident response policy and vulnerability disclosure page to facilitate security issue reporting.
  4. Include contact information for a Data Protection Officer or privacy contact to improve compliance and trust.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and security policies to maintain alignment with evolving regulations and best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with WPML for multilingual support, indicating a flexible and widely supported platform. It uses modern web technologies including Google Tag Manager for analytics and FontAwesome for icons. The site loads moderate performance assets and is mobile optimized with responsive design. No major technical debt or deprecated libraries were detected. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility features and implement advanced SEO optimizations. Hosting provider details were not identified from the data. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable web presence.
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.
