ENGSO Youth is a European non-profit organization dedicated to empowering youth in grassroots sports. Founded in 2002, it serves as the independent youth body of the European Sports NGOs, advocating for youth rights and inclusion in sports. The organization operates through multiple working groups and projects focusing on education, employability, sport diplomacy, health, social inclusion, and sustainable development. It maintains partnerships with prominent European and international institutions, enhancing its credibility and influence. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with Elementor, leveraging modern web technologies such as jQuery and Font Awesome. The site is mobile-optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in accessibility and SEO. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, it lacks some recommended security headers and a cookie consent mechanism, which are important for compliance and protection.

Strategic improvements in privacy compliance and security hardening would further enhance its posture.

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

5 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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. 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';…
  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.

Business context

Business profile

ENGSO Youth occupies a niche in the European non-profit sector focused on youth and grassroots sports. Its competitive advantage lies in its established partnerships with major European bodies like the European Commission, Council of Europe, WHO, and UNESCO. The organization targets young people, sports NGOs, and policymakers, leveraging advocacy, education, and project implementation as its core activities. Revenue streams likely include grants and funding from European institutions. The presence of multiple working groups and events indicates active engagement and growth potential. The hosted secretariat in Lithuania and consistent branding reinforce operational stability.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and no visible sensitive data leaks. The absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents a gap that could expose the site to certain web attacks. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contacts limits transparency and readiness. No vulnerable libraries or insecure forms were detected, indicating good baseline hygiene. Compliance with GDPR is partially evidenced by the privacy policy, but the missing cookie consent mechanism is a compliance risk. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could benefit from enhancements in headers, policies, and user consent mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a cookie consent banner to ensure GDPR compliance and user transparency.
  2. Add and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a formal security policy and provide incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and SEO performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder, utilizing standard web technologies such as jQuery and Font Awesome. The site loads external resources like Google Fonts and YouTube embeds, which are common but should be monitored for performance impact. The design is responsive and visually consistent, with good navigation structure. Performance is moderate, suggesting potential optimization opportunities in image sizes and script loading. Accessibility is basic, indicating room for improvement in ARIA roles and keyboard navigation. SEO is supported by meta tags and Open Graph data, enhancing social media sharing and search visibility. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could be optimized further for speed and accessibility.
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.
