Donor Conception Network · Non-profit · United Kingdom
Medium risk. 3 critical or high findings in Security headers, Email security and 1 other check.
The Donor Conception Network (DCN) is a UK-based non-profit charity established in 1993, dedicated to supporting donor conception families and prospective families. It operates primarily as a membership organization offering a wide range of services including information, support, events, workshops, and a bookshop. The website reflects a well-established entity with a clear mission and a strong community focus. The organization positions itself as the UK's first and largest charity in this niche, targeting donor conception families, donors, professionals, and related individuals. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with WooCommerce for e-commerce capabilities, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries and fonts for a responsive and visually appealing user experience. SEO is well-implemented using Yoast SEO, and the site is mobile-optimized with good navigation clarity. Hosting is managed by Gandi SAS, a reputable registrar and hosting provider. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in accessibility features. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and has domain transfer protections in place, but lacks DNSSEC and advanced security headers. No explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are published, which could be improved to enhance trust and compliance. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented, indicating GDPR awareness, but no privacy policy or terms of service were found in the provided content. Overall, the website demonstrates a high level of business credibility and professionalism with good content quality and technical implementation. The security posture is adequate but could benefit from enhancements in policy transparency and technical safeguards. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, publishing comprehensive privacy and security policies, and improving accessibility compliance to strengthen the organization's digital maturity and trustworthiness.
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.

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.
Controls resources the browser is allowed to load
What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application
SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.
DKIM selector 'selector1' uses 792-bit key
What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA keys for DKIM
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

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.

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.

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.
