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

Fundacja EuropaColon Polska is a Polish non-profit organization dedicated to supporting patients and raising awareness about digestive system cancers, particularly colorectal cancer. Affiliated with the European organization Digestive Cancers Europe, it provides educational resources, patient support, advocacy, and participates in research initiatives. The foundation targets patients, caregivers, and the general public with a focus on prevention and quality of life improvement. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with comprehensive content tailored to its audience. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using modern frameworks like Bootstrap 4 and WPBakery Page Builder. It employs common plugins such as Contact Form 7 and MediaPress, and is hosted by home.pl S.A., a reputable Polish hosting provider. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, though performance is moderate. Security practices include HTTPS enforcement and use of security-related plugins, but could be enhanced by implementing additional security headers and a cookie consent mechanism. From a security perspective, the site shows a good posture with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of DNSSEC and some security headers represents an area for improvement. Privacy compliance is mostly addressed with a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service, but the lack of a cookie consent banner may pose GDPR compliance risks. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies were found. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professionally managed, with a strong alignment between domain registration data and business claims. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, adding security headers, implementing cookie consent, and establishing a vulnerability disclosure policy to further strengthen security and compliance.

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

11 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"

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

EuropaColon Polska operates as a specialized non-profit foundation within the healthcare sector, focusing on digestive cancers. Its market positioning is strengthened by affiliation with Digestive Cancers Europe, providing credibility and access to European-wide resources. The foundation's business model centers on education, patient support, advocacy, and research collaboration rather than commercial revenue. Its target customers include patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals, and the general public interested in cancer prevention. Growth indicators include active campaigns, educational projects, and digital platforms such as forums and podcasts. The organization maintains partnerships with European cancer networks and local healthcare entities, enhancing its ecosystem and outreach capabilities.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and no evident exposure of sensitive information. Use of security and accessibility plugins indicates attention to secure and inclusive user experience. However, the absence of DNSSEC and certain HTTP security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) suggests room for improvement. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, which limits transparency and preparedness. Privacy policy and terms of service are present and comprehensive, but cookie consent mechanisms are missing, potentially impacting GDPR compliance. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by adopting additional best practices and formal policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply fully with GDPR requirements.
  4. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform with a modern tech stack including Bootstrap 4 for responsive design and WPBakery Page Builder for content management. It uses common plugins such as Contact Form 7 for forms and MediaPress for media handling. The hosting provider is home.pl S.A., a reputable Polish hosting company. Performance is moderate, with deferred loading of scripts and use of CDN resources like cdnjs.cloudflare.com for libraries. Accessibility features are implemented via WP Accessibility plugin, and SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. Technical risks include potential outdated plugins and missing advanced security headers, which should be addressed to reduce attack surface.
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.
