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

Bonterra is a purpose-built software company specializing in nonprofit and social good sectors, offering solutions for fundraising, case management, and corporate giving. Founded in 2021 and inspired by social investing pioneer Sir Ronald Cohen, Bonterra has quickly positioned itself as the second-largest social good software company globally. The company targets a broad audience ranging from new nonprofits to Fortune 500 enterprises, aiming to maximize social impact through integrated software solutions. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with React components, leveraging modern frameworks like Bootstrap and advanced marketing and analytics tools such as Marketo, Google Tag Manager, and Microsoft Clarity. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices, reflecting a mature digital presence. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and asynchronous loading of scripts but lacks explicit security headers and detailed privacy or cookie policies, which are areas for improvement. The absence of WHOIS registrant data raises some concerns about domain legitimacy, although the website content and branding strongly suggest a legitimate and professional business. Overall, Bonterra presents a strong market presence with room to enhance transparency and security compliance.

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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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"

  2. 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Bonterra operates in the nonprofit software market with a SaaS business model focused on social good organizations. Its rapid growth and positioning as a leading social good software provider indicate strong market acceptance and competitive advantage. The company leverages a multi-channel marketing ecosystem with advanced analytics and retargeting capabilities, supporting customer acquisition and engagement. The lack of publicly available WHOIS data is unusual for a company of this profile and should be investigated to ensure domain ownership transparency. Bonterra's partnerships and social media presence reinforce its industry credibility. The company’s growth potential is supported by its comprehensive software offerings and alignment with global social impact trends.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enforced and use of reputable analytics and marketing scripts loaded asynchronously to reduce risk. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection reduces the overall security robustness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The lack of explicit privacy and cookie policies and incident response contact information indicates gaps in compliance and readiness. Enhancing these areas would improve the security maturity and trustworthiness of the site.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure essential security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-XSS-Protection) to strengthen site security.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  3. Provide explicit contact information for security incidents and data protection inquiries.
  4. Verify and publish WHOIS domain registration details to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and ensure compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack combining WordPress CMS with React for dynamic components and Bootstrap for responsive design. It integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools including Marketo, Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, and social media pixels, indicating a sophisticated digital marketing infrastructure. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading, but no explicit hosting provider or CDN details were found. The site is well-optimized for SEO and accessibility, with structured data (JSON-LD) implemented for enhanced search engine understanding. Opportunities exist to improve technical security configurations and to ensure full compliance with privacy regulations.
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.
