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

The Bukhman Foundation is a recently established philanthropic non-profit organization focused on supporting medical research, education, and arts & culture. The foundation positions itself as a catalyst for lasting social change, with notable partnerships such as the Bukhman Centre for Research Excellence in Type 1 Diabetes at Oxford University. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image targeting philanthropists, researchers, educators, and the general public interested in charitable causes. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern frontend technologies like Tailwind CSS and GSAP, hosted by GoDaddy. Performance and mobile optimization are good, though accessibility and SEO could be improved. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and domain transfer protections, but lacks DNSSEC and security headers. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism or GDPR indicators. Contact information is limited to an email address, with no phone or physical address provided. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional but could enhance security and privacy practices.

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

6 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

  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

    • 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

  4. 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 · 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

The foundation operates in the non-profit sector with a focus on philanthropy in healthcare, education, and arts. Its business model revolves around funding and supporting research and cultural initiatives. The domain age and registration details align with the foundation's recent establishment in 2023, supporting legitimacy. The website content and partnerships indicate a niche market position with potential for growth through academic and cultural collaborations. The absence of extensive contact details and limited privacy compliance suggest room for maturity in operational transparency and regulatory adherence.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and domain registration protections, which are positive security indicators. However, the lack of DNSSEC and absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduce the overall security posture. No incident response or security policies are published, and no dedicated contact channels for security incidents are provided. The site does not appear to use analytics or tracking scripts, reducing privacy risks but also limiting user behavior insights. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but can be improved by implementing recommended best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  4. Publish a security policy and provide dedicated incident response contact information (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email).
  5. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern frontend stack including Tailwind CSS, GSAP animations, Swiper for carousels, and Lottie-web for animations. Hosting is provided by GoDaddy, with domain registration protections enabled. The site is mobile optimized and uses responsive design principles. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in SEO and accessibility features. No analytics or tracking services are detected, which may limit marketing insights but enhances privacy. The site lacks some security best practices such as DNSSEC and security headers, which should be addressed to reduce risk.
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.
