Eye Health Africa is a small healthcare-focused non-profit organization dedicated to improving ophthalmologic care across Africa through training, equipment donations, and eye health camps. Founded in 2019 by Ms Primrose Magala, the organization leverages a professional team of ophthalmologists and nurses to build sustainable eye care capacity. The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using Elementor and WooCommerce, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. While the site is well-designed and mobile-optimized, it lacks explicit privacy and cookie policies, which are critical for compliance and trust. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled but could be improved by enabling DNSSEC and adding security headers. Overall, the domain registration is consistent and legitimate, supporting the organization's credibility.

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
11 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
Network security
Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.
Critical
Critical Service Exposed: MySQL
Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server
What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN
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"

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.

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.

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, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The organization operates in the healthcare sector with a niche focus on eye health in Africa. Its business model centers on capacity building and knowledge sharing rather than commercial sales, supported by partnerships with educational and health institutions such as WCEA and ICEID. The target audience includes health professionals and institutions in Africa. The website content and structure support its mission but lack some compliance and security transparency. Growth potential exists through expanded partnerships and enhanced digital presence.
Security posture
The website employs HTTPS and has domain status protections but lacks DNSSEC and security headers, which are recommended best practices. No incident response or security policies are published, and no dedicated security contact channels are found. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and similar regulations. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved with standard security enhancements and policy disclosures.
Recommendations
Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
Establish and publish an incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels.
Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes
Notes
The website uses a modern WordPress CMS with Astra theme, Elementor page builder, and WooCommerce plugin, indicating a flexible and extensible infrastructure. The site loads resources from trusted external domains such as Google Fonts and YouTube. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. SEO is enhanced by Yoast SEO plugin and structured data in JSON-LD format. However, the lack of security headers and DNSSEC represents technical debt. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, which may limit marketing insights but improves privacy. Overall, the technical setup is solid but can benefit from security and compliance improvements.
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.
