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

CompliancePro.be is a specialized non-commercial platform and community dedicated to compliance professionals in Belgium, focusing on ethics, integrity, and responsible business practices. It offers networking, recognition, and training services primarily outside the financial and insurance sectors. The platform is affiliated with ICC Belgium, enhancing its credibility and market position as a leading compliance community in the region. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Avada theme and Fusion Builder, with modern SEO and analytics tools integrated. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and user experience, though performance is moderate. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and reCAPTCHA, but could benefit from enhanced security headers and explicit policies. Privacy compliance is partially met with a privacy policy present but lacks a cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with its business objectives.

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

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

  2. 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

  3. 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"

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 platform occupies a niche market as the first community of compliance professionals in Belgium, offering unique value through professional recognition and training. Its non-commercial model supported by ICC Belgium positions it as a trusted entity in the compliance sector. The business model focuses on community building and education, targeting compliance officers and professionals outside traditional financial sectors. The presence of multilingual brochures and regular events indicates active engagement and growth potential. The website's clear contact details and affiliation with a reputable parent organization enhance its credibility. No direct revenue streams or commercial partnerships are evident, consistent with its non-profit nature.

Security posture

The website maintains a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS, use of Google reCAPTCHA on forms, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents an area for improvement. There is no public incident response or security policy disclosed, which could affect transparency and preparedness. The site uses updated WordPress core and plugins, reducing vulnerability risks. No known vulnerabilities or suspicious activities were detected. GDPR compliance is partially addressed but could be enhanced with cookie consent and detailed data protection officer contact information.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a cookie consent banner to ensure full GDPR compliance.
  2. Add and configure security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan accessible to users.
  4. Regularly audit and update all plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance by providing Data Protection Officer contact details and data retention policies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a mature WordPress platform using the Avada theme and Fusion Builder, indicating a modern and flexible infrastructure. It integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking, and Google reCAPTCHA for bot protection. The site loads moderate resources and is optimized for mobile devices with responsive design. SEO is enhanced via Yoast SEO plugin, with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) implemented. Hosting is provided by Combell nv, a reputable Belgian registrar and hosting provider. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and resource optimization. Accessibility is basic, with room for enhancements in ARIA roles and keyboard navigation support.
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.
