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

The website donaora.it serves as a fundraising platform for Fondazione Bambino Gesù ETS, a non-profit organization focused on pediatric healthcare support in Italy. The site aims to facilitate donations to support scientific research, medical care, and assistance to children and their families. The business model revolves around charitable giving and donor engagement, targeting individuals interested in supporting pediatric health causes. The organization is mature, with a domain age of 17 years, aligning with its founding date in 2007. Technically, the website employs basic modern web technologies such as Google Tag Manager and Google Fonts, with integration of GestPay for payment processing. However, the site suffers from significant performance issues, including a very slow load time and large page size. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic, and SEO practices are minimal. The absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support is a critical flaw, exposing users to security risks. From a security perspective, the website lacks essential protections such as HTTPS, HSTS, DMARC, DNSSEC, and domain protection locks. The presence of exposed sensitive tokens or API keys in the HTML source is a severe vulnerability that could lead to exploitation. No privacy, cookie, or terms of service policies are present, indicating poor privacy compliance. The WHOIS data confirms the domain is mature and consistent with the organization's profile but highlights a high expiry risk and lack of domain locks. Overall, the website's risk profile is elevated due to critical security shortcomings and poor privacy compliance. Strategic improvements in SSL implementation, security headers, privacy policies, and domain management are urgently recommended to enhance trustworthiness and protect donor data.

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.

Priority findings

8 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

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  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 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

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

Fondazione Bambino Gesù ETS operates as a non-profit entity specializing in pediatric healthcare fundraising. Its market positioning is focused on charitable donations supporting research and care for children. The business model relies on online donation campaigns facilitated through the donaora.it platform. Revenue streams are primarily donation-based, targeting individual donors and supporters. The organization benefits from partnerships with payment processors like GestPay and uses Google Tag Manager for marketing analytics. Growth indicators include a mature domain and ongoing campaigns, but technical and security weaknesses may hinder donor confidence. The partnership ecosystem includes related subdomains and payment services critical to operations.

Security posture

The current security posture is weak, with no valid SSL certificate and no HTTPS enforcement, exposing users to data interception risks. The absence of security headers, HSTS, DMARC, and DNSSEC further weakens the security framework. Exposed sensitive tokens in the HTML source represent a critical vulnerability that could lead to unauthorized access or fraud. No incident response or security policy information is available, indicating low security maturity. Compliance with GDPR and other data protection regulations is questionable due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Immediate remediation is required to address these gaps and protect user data.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Remove or secure any exposed sensitive tokens or API keys from the website source code.
  3. Implement security headers including HSTS, Content Security Policy, and X-Frame-Options.
  4. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and inform users.
  5. Enable DNSSEC and domain protection locks to safeguard domain integrity and prevent hijacking.
Technical notes

Notes

The website uses standard web technologies such as Google Tag Manager and Google Fonts, with GestPay integrated for payment processing. However, the site suffers from poor performance, with a load time of nearly 15 seconds and a large page size close to 1MB. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic, lacking advanced features. No CMS or specific frameworks were detected. The absence of HTTPS and modern TLS protocols is a critical technical deficiency. The site lacks SEO optimization beyond basic meta tags. Technical debt is evident in slow performance and missing security best practices, posing risks to business continuity and user trust.
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.
