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

Fundacja DigitalPoland is a Polish non-profit foundation dedicated to transforming digital challenges into opportunities for the Polish economy. It positions Poland as a leading global center for digital innovation by promoting international and cross-sector initiatives, fostering networks, and publishing research and reports. The foundation operates multiple initiatives such as Digital Shapers, Digital Champions CEE, and AI ecosystem promotion through AIPoland, alongside organizing educational events like the Digital Festival. The website reflects a mature digital presence with professional design, clear navigation, and comprehensive content targeting stakeholders in Poland's digital economy. Technically, the website uses modern tools including Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics, is hosted behind Cloudflare DNS, and is built on the Statamic CMS platform. It demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protection, though DNSSEC is not enabled and some security headers could be improved. Privacy and cookie policies are present and GDPR compliant, with a consent mechanism implemented. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from publishing explicit security policies and incident response contacts. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns were detected. The domain registration data aligns well with the foundation's history and business claims, supporting high legitimacy. The website is safe for general audiences and maintains a high level of professionalism and trustworthiness.

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. 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 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.

Business context

Business profile

Fundacja DigitalPoland holds a strong market position as a leading digital innovation foundation in Poland, targeting technology companies, policymakers, and the broader digital ecosystem. Its business model focuses on non-profit promotion of digital transformation through initiatives, research, and events. The foundation leverages partnerships with specialized platforms and organizes flagship events to enhance its influence. The presence of multiple published reports and active social media channels indicates a well-established communication strategy. The foundation's founding in 2016 and consistent domain registration support its credibility. Growth indicators include expanding initiatives and educational programs. The partnership ecosystem includes digitalshapers.pl, digitalfestival.pl, and aipoland.org, reflecting a collaborative approach to ecosystem development.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain status clientTransferProhibited to prevent unauthorized transfers. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended best practice for DNS security. Security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options are not detected and should be implemented to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were found in the HTML content. The site includes a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. Incident response and security policies are not published, representing a gap in transparency and readiness. Overall, the security maturity is good but can be improved by adopting additional headers and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options HTTP headers to reduce risk of XSS and MIME sniffing attacks.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure or responsible disclosure policy to encourage security researchers to report issues.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain compliance with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Statamic CMS platform, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries and Google services for analytics and tag management. Hosting is behind Cloudflare DNS, providing DNS-level protection and performance benefits. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. Performance is moderate, with potential for improvement through optimization of images and scripts. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The absence of some security headers and DNSSEC indicates minor technical debt in security hardening. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable web presence suitable for the foundation's mission.
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.
