0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

Udruga Biom is a Croatian non-profit organization dedicated to nature conservation and environmental education. The website serves as a platform to communicate their projects, publications, events, and opportunities for public involvement. It targets environmentalists, researchers, volunteers, and the general public interested in ecological issues. The organization operates primarily through donations, partnerships, and project funding, positioning itself as a reputable local NGO with active community engagement. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using modern technologies such as Tailwind CSS, Google Tag Manager, and reCAPTCHA for form security. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO and accessibility basics, though some improvements could be made in accessibility and performance tuning. Analytics are implemented via Google Analytics, with moderate user tracking and GDPR-compliant privacy and cookie policies. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and includes standard security headers. Forms are protected with reCAPTCHA, and no obvious vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of a public security policy or vulnerability disclosure page suggests room for maturity in security governance. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with the organization's mission. It presents low risk from a security and compliance standpoint but would benefit from enhanced transparency in security policies and incident response readiness.

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

9 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

    • 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';…

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

Udruga Biom holds a solid position in the Croatian environmental NGO sector, leveraging partnerships and community involvement to advance conservation goals. Their business model relies on donations and project grants, supported by a clear digital presence. The website reflects a focus on education, volunteerism, and public engagement, which are key to their growth and impact. The partnership with doniraj.biom.hr for donations indicates a structured approach to fundraising. The organization’s content and navigation are designed to serve both local and international audiences, with multilingual support. Strategic observations include potential expansion of digital engagement tools and formalization of security and compliance documentation to enhance stakeholder trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, modern security headers, and use of reCAPTCHA to protect forms. Google Tag Manager is used to manage scripts securely. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive information were found. However, the lack of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates an opportunity to improve transparency and readiness. Compliance with GDPR is evident through privacy and cookie policies. Regular security audits and the addition of a security.txt file or similar disclosure would strengthen the security culture and stakeholder confidence.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards for inclusivity.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Provide clear incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform with Tailwind CSS for styling and Gutenberg blocks for content management. It uses Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking and performance monitoring. The site is mobile responsive and optimized for SEO with proper meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in load times and accessibility. The technical stack is well-maintained, but ongoing monitoring of plugin and script security is recommended to avoid technical debt and vulnerabilities.
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.
