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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
  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';…
  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Basketball Tasmania operates in the non-profit sports sector, focusing on basketball development and community participation. Its business model revolves around community programs, athlete and coach development, competitions, and merchandise sales. The organization maintains partnerships with government bodies and related sports entities, enhancing its market position. The website reflects a small-sized organization with a clear target audience of Tasmanian basketball stakeholders. Growth indicators include active development programs and community initiatives. The partnership ecosystem includes the Tasmanian Basketball Foundation and the JackJumpers team. Strategic observations highlight a focus on inclusivity, grassroots development, and leveraging digital tools for engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is properly implemented, and forms use secure plugins like Gravity Forms. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. There is no visible security or incident response policy, nor a vulnerability disclosure mechanism. Compliance with GDPR is partial, lacking cookie consent and explicit privacy compliance indicators. The security culture appears basic but functional, suitable for a non-profit sports organization. Enhancements in security headers, privacy compliance, and incident response readiness would improve the posture.

Recommendations

  1. Implement essential security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and update privacy policy to explicitly address GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure program to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using a custom Understrap theme and popular plugins such as WooCommerce for e-commerce and Gravity Forms for data collection. It uses jQuery and Slick Carousel for interactive UI elements and integrates Google Maps API for location services. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, especially in loading times and accessibility features. The site is mobile responsive and SEO optimized with proper meta tags and structured data. Technical risks include potential plugin vulnerabilities and lack of advanced security headers. Opportunities exist to modernize the tech stack by adopting newer JavaScript frameworks and improving accessibility compliance.
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.
