Risk levelMedium

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

Chances for Nature is a small non-profit organization established in 2011, dedicated to supporting people and protecting nature through environmental and social initiatives. The website is built on WordPress using the Divi theme, reflecting a moderate level of digital maturity with good design and mobile optimization. The technical infrastructure is standard for a non-profit, with HTTPS enabled and basic cookie consent mechanisms in place. However, there is room for improvement in security practices, such as enabling DNSSEC and implementing security headers. The absence of explicit privacy policies, terms of service, and contact information reduces transparency and may affect user trust. Overall, the website is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced compliance and security documentation.

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. 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
    • 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 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Facebook, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  3. DNS health

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

    • High

      Weak SPF Policy

      SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email

      What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email security

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 in the non-profit sector focusing on environmental and social support services. It targets a general audience interested in nature conservation and community support. The business model likely relies on donations and volunteer support. The website positions the organization as a niche player in the environmental non-profit space with consistent branding and good content quality. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries from the website content. The lack of detailed business information and contact data limits deeper business intelligence insights.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS, which is a fundamental security requirement. However, no advanced security headers were detected, and DNSSEC is not enabled, which could expose the domain to DNS spoofing risks. There is no visible security policy, incident response information, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism, indicating a low maturity in security governance. The use of standard WordPress and Divi theme suggests reliance on common security practices but also potential exposure to known vulnerabilities if not regularly updated. No sensitive data exposure or malicious indicators were found. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved with better policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing attacks.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  4. Add clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for transparency and support.
  5. Develop and publish security and incident response policies, including a vulnerability disclosure program.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with the Divi theme, using JavaScript and jQuery libraries. It loads Google Fonts and uses a cookie consent plugin (Complianz GDPR). The site is mobile optimized with responsive design. Performance is moderate, with no explicit performance optimization detected. Accessibility features are basic, and SEO optimization is minimal but present. Hosting details are not explicit but the domain registrar is Key-Systems GmbH. No CDN or advanced caching mechanisms were identified. The technical stack is typical for a small non-profit but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
