Risk levelHigh

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

The Παγκύπριος Σύνδεσμος Νοσηλευτών και Μαιών (ΠΑ.ΣΥ.Ν.Μ.) is a well-established professional association representing nurses and midwives in Cyprus. The organization provides educational programs, organizes conferences, and represents its members both nationally and internationally. The website reflects a medium-sized non-profit entity with a clear focus on healthcare professionals in Cyprus. The domain age and WHOIS data confirm the legitimacy and long-standing presence of the organization. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a standard theme and uses common web technologies such as jQuery and CSS3. The site is moderately optimized for mobile and SEO, with a good user experience and clear navigation. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protection, but lacks DNSSEC and advanced security headers. Privacy compliance is basic with a privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism present but not fully comprehensive or explicitly GDPR compliant. Contact information and social media presence are clearly provided, enhancing business credibility.

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

10 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"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…
  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

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

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 holds a strong market position as the primary nursing and midwifery association in Cyprus, with affiliations to international bodies such as the International Council of Nurses and WHO. Its business model is non-profit, focusing on member services including education, advocacy, and professional development. The website content and linked domains indicate a robust partnership ecosystem with national and international healthcare organizations. Growth indicators include active event programming and digital engagement via social media and webinars. The association's operations are transparent with clear contact details and event information, supporting trust and member engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and the domain is protected against unauthorized transfers. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers like Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options represents potential vulnerabilities. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is available, which could hinder rapid mitigation of security issues. The site does not expose sensitive data and uses standard WordPress security practices, but regular updates and enhanced security configurations are recommended to maintain resilience against threats. Privacy policy and cookie consent exist but lack depth in GDPR compliance, indicating room for improvement in data protection practices.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to secure DNS infrastructure and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Enhance privacy policy to explicitly address GDPR compliance and data subject rights.
  4. Publish an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website runs on WordPress CMS using the Twenty Thirteen child theme, leveraging jQuery and standard web technologies. Hosting is provided by Blacknight Internet Solutions Ltd., a reputable registrar and hosting provider. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected, and the site is mobile-optimized with responsive design elements. SEO is basic with meta tags and structured navigation but could benefit from further optimization. Accessibility features are minimal but present. The technical stack is stable but could be modernized with updated frameworks and enhanced security configurations to reduce technical debt and improve resilience.
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.
