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

DAN Europe Foundation is a well-established non-profit organization specializing in diving insurance and medical assistance for divers across Europe and worldwide. Founded in 1983, it holds a strong market position as the largest diving safety association in Europe, offering a comprehensive range of services including insurance products, emergency medical support, education, and research. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear navigation and relevant content tailored to divers, dive centers, and diving professionals. Technically, the website is built on the Liferay CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries and frameworks such as Alloy UI and Clay UI. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Iubenda for cookie consent management, ensuring compliance with GDPR and other privacy regulations. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and moderate performance, with accessibility features that could be further enhanced. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and includes essential security headers. It employs a robust cookie consent mechanism and does not expose sensitive data or vulnerable libraries. However, it lacks a publicly available security policy, incident response contact details, and vulnerability disclosure information, which are recommended for improving transparency and trust. Overall, DAN Europe’s website is trustworthy, professionally maintained, and compliant with privacy standards. The domain registration details align well with the organization's claims, reinforcing legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include publishing formal security policies, adding incident response contacts, and enhancing accessibility to further strengthen the site’s security posture and user trust.

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

4 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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  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 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';…

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

DAN Europe operates as a non-profit entity focused on diving safety, insurance, and medical assistance. Its business model revolves around membership-based insurance products and educational services, targeting divers, dive centers, and diving professionals. The organization leverages partnerships and community engagement to enhance its offerings and market reach. The presence of charity funds and research initiatives indicates a commitment to social responsibility and innovation. The website content and structure support a strong brand presence with clear calls to action for joining, renewing insurance, and accessing educational resources. The integration of multiple languages and regional targeting reflects a broad geographic footprint within Europe and beyond.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and a comprehensive set of security headers. Cookie consent is managed via a reputable third-party solution (Iubenda), supporting GDPR compliance. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive information were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents gaps in transparency and readiness. The use of third-party scripts such as Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel introduces moderate tracking but is managed with user consent. Overall, the site balances security and usability well but could improve in formalizing security governance and incident response communication.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to meet higher standards.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Liferay CMS platform, leveraging Alloy UI and Clay UI JavaScript frameworks. It uses Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing, integrated with Iubenda for cookie consent management. The site is responsive and optimized for mobile devices with a moderate performance profile. The HTML and CSS are valid and well-structured, supporting SEO best practices. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from performance tuning and enhanced accessibility compliance. Hosting details are not explicitly disclosed, but the SSL configuration is strong, indicating a secure hosting environment.
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.
