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. 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 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. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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 organization positions itself as a regional leader in educational development and leadership training, serving schools and educational professionals. Its business model is service-oriented, focusing on training and consultancy within the education sector. The presence of testimonials and structured data enhances trust and market positioning. The website's content and services indicate a stable, small-sized non-profit entity with a clear target audience. The lack of visible certifications or security policies suggests room for growth in formalizing security and compliance frameworks. The hosting and technical infrastructure are adequate for the organization's needs, supporting a good user experience and mobile optimization.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent mechanisms in place. However, explicit security headers such as X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy are not visibly set in the HTML source, which could be improved. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, which is a gap in transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of Borlabs Cookie indicates attention to privacy compliance. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from enhanced header configurations and published security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify security headers including X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Consider implementing a Content Security Policy (CSP) header to reduce risks of cross-site scripting (XSS).
  5. Conduct periodic security audits and penetration testing to proactively identify and remediate risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using a custom child theme 'mba' based on 'virtawp' theme. It uses jQuery and Swiper.js for interactive elements and Borlabs Cookie for cookie consent management. Hosting is provided by host-on.net as indicated by the nameservers. The site is optimized for mobile devices and includes accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA attributes. Performance is moderate with some deferred and lazy-loaded scripts and images. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph tags, and JSON-LD structured data. The technical stack is modern and appropriate for the organization's size and sector, with opportunities to enhance security headers and performance optimizations.
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.
