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

DOEN Ventures operates as the impact-first investment arm of the DOEN Foundation, focusing on sustainable and social startups that contribute positively to society. The company provides convertible loans and equity investments primarily in early-stage ventures within sectors such as sustainable consumer products, circular business models, and the blue economy. The website reflects a professional and well-structured digital presence, leveraging WordPress CMS with modern technologies and SEO optimizations. Privacy and cookie policies are clearly stated and GDPR compliant, with user consent mechanisms in place. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enabled and domain protections, though some enhancements like DNSSEC and security headers could improve resilience. The domain WHOIS data shows an unusual future creation date, likely a data anomaly, but overall domain registration details align with a legitimate entity. Contact is primarily via a support page with a contact form, and social media presence is established on LinkedIn. Overall, the website and business demonstrate a mature digital footprint with a strong focus on impact investing and sustainability.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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';…

  3. 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.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Business profile

DOEN Ventures holds a strategic position as an impact investment company affiliated with the DOEN Foundation, funded by major lotteries in the Netherlands. Its business model centers on providing financial instruments to startups that align with regenerative economy goals. The company targets sustainable and social entrepreneurs, positioning itself as a frontrunner in impact investing. The portfolio showcases diverse companies in sustainable food, circular economy, and alternative materials. The website content and structure support clear communication of mission and services, enhancing credibility. Partnerships with the DOEN Foundation and lotteries strengthen its ecosystem. Growth indicators include a portfolio of 68 companies and significant investment volume. The company leverages digital marketing tools and analytics to engage stakeholders and optimize outreach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain status flags that prevent unauthorized domain modifications. Use of Cloudflare DNS adds resilience, though DNSSEC is not enabled, representing a potential improvement area. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which could limit transparency in case of security events. The site uses modern JavaScript libraries and frameworks without visible vulnerable versions. Forms are implemented via Gravity Forms with AJAX and honeypot anti-spam measures, indicating attention to secure data collection. Tracking and analytics tools like Hotjar and Google Tag Manager are used responsibly with cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security maturity is solid but could benefit from enhanced security headers and published policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Consider adding explicit contact emails and phone numbers for business and security inquiries to improve trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including Gravity Forms for form handling, Yoast SEO for search optimization, and various JavaScript libraries such as Swiper.js and AOS for enhanced user experience. Hosting and domain registration are managed via reputable providers including Amazon Registrar and Cloudflare DNS. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features implemented. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. The site uses Google Tag Manager and Hotjar for analytics and user behavior tracking, integrated with cookie consent for privacy compliance. Technical debt appears low with up-to-date plugins and scripts. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and DNS security for a more robust infrastructure.
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.
