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

The European Coalition for People living with Obesity (ECPO) operates a professional and well-structured website focused on advocacy and support for people living with obesity across Europe. The organization appears to be a small non-profit coalition founded in 2018, with a clear healthcare sector focus. The website uses WordPress with the Divi theme and integrates common web technologies such as Google Fonts, Google Tag Manager, and MonsterInsights for analytics. Hosting and domain registration are consistent with the organization's European focus, registered in the UK via Cloudflare. From a technical perspective, the website demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices, though performance is moderate. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protection, but lacks advanced DNS security (DNSSEC) and security headers. Privacy compliance is weak due to the absence of privacy and cookie policies or consent mechanisms. No contact emails or phone numbers were found in the provided content, which limits direct communication channels. Overall, the website is safe and appropriate for a general audience with no adult or questionable content detected. The security posture is moderate but could be improved with better privacy disclosures and security headers. The domain registration is legitimate and consistent with the business claims, supporting trustworthiness. Strategic recommendations include implementing privacy and cookie policies, adding security headers, and publishing incident response and vulnerability disclosure information to enhance compliance and trust.

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

3 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.

    • 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. 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, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

ECPO positions itself as a European-level advocacy coalition for people living with obesity, targeting patients, healthcare professionals, and policymakers. Its business model is non-profit advocacy, focusing on awareness, support, and policy influence. The organization leverages digital presence primarily for information dissemination and community engagement. The website's use of WordPress and Divi theme indicates a cost-effective and flexible digital infrastructure. The absence of commercial or e-commerce elements aligns with its non-profit nature. The organization benefits from a consistent brand and clear messaging but lacks visible contact details and formal privacy disclosures, which could impact stakeholder engagement and trust.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and domain transfer protection, indicating baseline security hygiene. However, the lack of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security represents missed opportunities to harden security. No evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries was found. The absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure process limits transparency and preparedness. Analytics tracking is implemented via Google Tag Manager and MonsterInsights, but privacy compliance is weak due to missing cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory expectations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement DNSSEC to secure DNS queries and prevent spoofing
  2. Add essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance
  4. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for support and inquiries
  5. Establish and publish a security policy and incident response plan to enhance transparency and readiness

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using the Divi theme, a popular and flexible platform for content management. It integrates Gravity Forms for form handling and uses Google Fonts for typography. Analytics are managed via Google Tag Manager and MonsterInsights, indicating a moderate level of digital marketing sophistication. Hosting and domain registration are managed through Cloudflare, providing CDN and security benefits. The site demonstrates good mobile responsiveness and accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with some optimization opportunities. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and privacy compliance tools.
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.
