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.

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 college operates in the education sector with a focus on short-cycle higher education, catering to both local and international students. Its business model revolves around providing accredited programs with flexible delivery modes, enhancing accessibility and appeal. The institution maintains a moderate size and a growing presence, supported by active social media channels and student testimonials. Revenue streams likely include tuition fees and possibly government or EU funding. The partnership ecosystem includes Erasmus+ and academic cooperation, enhancing its market position. The website content and structure indicate a mature digital presence with good SEO and user experience, supporting recruitment and brand building efforts.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced and integration of Google reCAPTCHA for bot mitigation. Cookie consent is implemented with granular categories, supporting GDPR compliance. However, explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not visibly configured, representing an area for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, which is common for educational institutions but could be enhanced for transparency. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from additional hardening and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan accessible to users and stakeholders to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance monitoring and logging capabilities to detect and respond to security incidents promptly.
  5. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.

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.
