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

Bouwend Nederland is a prominent Dutch construction industry association that provides advocacy, information, and services to construction companies and professionals within the Netherlands. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence targeting industry stakeholders. The technical infrastructure leverages modern JavaScript frameworks such as Vue.js and Vuetify, with integrations for analytics and user behavior tracking via Google Tag Manager and Hotjar. Cookie consent is managed through Cookiebot, indicating attention to privacy compliance mechanisms. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled, but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. No privacy policy or terms of service were detected in the provided content, which represents a compliance gap. Overall, the website is well-designed and functional, serving its business purpose effectively.

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

No critical or high findings. These medium findings are worth fixing next.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Medium

      Privacy policy may not be GDPR compliant

      Privacy policy lacks explicit GDPR compliance elements

      What to do: Update privacy policy to explicitly address GDPR requirements and user rights

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Medium

      No MTA-STS Policy

      MTA-STS enforces TLS for email delivery

      What to do: Implement MTA-STS to prevent downgrade attacks

  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.

    • Medium

      SSL Certificate Expires Within 90 Days

      SSL certificate expires in 82 days

      What to do: Plan SSL certificate renewal

  4. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • Medium

      DNSSEC Not Enabled

      DNSSEC is not configured for this domain

      What to do: Enable DNSSEC to prevent DNS spoofing attacks

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 operates as an essential industry association within the construction sector in the Netherlands, providing representation and services to its members. Its market position is strong as a leading voice in the Dutch construction industry. The business model centers on membership services, advocacy, and information dissemination rather than direct commercial sales. The website's external integrations with advertising and analytics platforms suggest a moderate digital marketing approach. No suspicious or unrelated domains were found linked, supporting a focused partnership ecosystem. The absence of detailed business registration data on the site limits deeper business intelligence insights.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and a cookie consent mechanism in place. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is published, which could hinder effective security incident management. The absence of a privacy policy and terms of service pages also indicates compliance gaps, particularly under GDPR requirements. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Recommendations include publishing comprehensive privacy and security policies and implementing additional security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add a terms of service page to clarify user rights and obligations.
  3. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Establish and publish an incident response policy and contact channels for security issues.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end technology stack based on Vue.js and Vuetify, providing a responsive and visually consistent user interface. Analytics and tracking are implemented via Google Tag Manager and Hotjar, enabling user behavior insights. Cookie consent is managed by Cookiebot, reflecting attention to privacy regulations. Performance is moderate, with no explicit indicators of slow loading or technical debt in the provided content. The absence of a detected CMS suggests a custom or static site architecture. Hosting provider details were not identified. Technical risks include missing security headers and incomplete privacy compliance documentation.
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.
