European Compost Network · Other · N/a
Medium risk. 5 critical or high findings in Security headers, GDPR outside view and 2 other checks.
The European Compost Network (ECN) operates as a membership organization representing bio-waste organizations, plant operators, researchers, policy makers, and consultants across 27 European countries. It serves as a key network advocating for sustainable bio-waste management and composting practices, offering certification services (ECN-QAS), policy advocacy, and dissemination of research and market development information. The website is well-structured, content-rich, and targets professionals and stakeholders in the bio-waste and environmental sustainability sectors. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including Yoast SEO, jQuery, Bootstrap, and various plugins for downloads, events, newsletters, and GDPR compliance. The site is mobile-optimized and demonstrates good SEO and accessibility practices, although some improvements in security headers and incident response documentation are recommended. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place, but lacks explicit security policies and vulnerability disclosure channels. No WHOIS data is publicly available, indicating privacy protection which is justified for this type of organization. No WAF or blocking mechanisms were detected, allowing full content access. Overall, the site presents a trustworthy and professional digital presence for ECN, with strong business credibility and compliance with privacy regulations. Strategic improvements in security transparency and contact information availability would further enhance trust and resilience.
Scanned
NIS2 Art. 21(2)
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.
5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
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.
Prevents clickjacking attacks
What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"
Controls resources the browser is allowed to load
What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application
These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.
GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies
What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit
TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.
Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1
What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions
Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.
Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer
What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
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
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.
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.
Risk levels
Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.
Leaked records that mention compostnetwork.info, from OffSeq Breach.
No leaked records found
Breach holds no records for compostnetwork.info right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.
Domains that imitate compostnetwork.info and could be used for phishing or spoofed email, tracked in OffSeq Breach.

Lookalike data refreshes continuously. Monitoring on Breach alerts you when a variant is registered, gains a mail server or starts serving HTTPS.
Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
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.
