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

EURORDIS-Rare Diseases Europe is a well-established non-profit organization dedicated to advocating for and empowering people living with rare diseases across Europe. The website reflects a professional and comprehensive digital presence, targeting patients, healthcare stakeholders, and advocacy groups. The organization provides resources, engagement opportunities, and information to support its mission. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern plugins and analytics tools, ensuring a good user experience and mobile optimization. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place, though explicit security headers could be improved. The absence of WHOIS data limits full domain legitimacy verification, but the overall site quality and trust indicators suggest a credible entity. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing incident response contacts, and maintaining up-to-date software.

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. 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';…
  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

EURORDIS operates in the healthcare and non-profit sectors, focusing on rare disease advocacy. Its business model revolves around advocacy, empowerment, and resource provision rather than commercial revenue. The organization maintains a strong market position within European healthcare advocacy networks, supported by a consistent brand and active social media presence. The website's content quality and navigation support effective stakeholder engagement. Partnerships and payment processing details are not explicitly identified in the data provided. Growth indicators include active content updates and multimedia resources. The organization benefits from a clear mission and trusted reputation in its niche.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not detected in the provided data, representing an area for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact information limits transparency in security governance. The use of reputable plugins and regular updates is implied but should be verified. Overall, the site is secure but could enhance its defenses and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Regularly audit and update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.
  5. Maintain transparency and enhance trust by providing more detailed business and compliance information.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress, leveraging plugins such as Yoast SEO for search optimization, GiveWP for donations, and Ajax Search Pro for enhanced search functionality. It integrates Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity for user behavior tracking, with a GDPR-compliant cookie consent banner. The site uses modern fonts and responsive design techniques, ensuring good mobile usability and accessibility. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed and security header implementation. The technical stack is standard for a professional non-profit website, with opportunities for modernization and enhanced security practices.
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.
