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

The International Fair Play Committee is a recognized non-profit organization dedicated to promoting fair play, sportsmanship, and ethical behavior in sports globally. Their website serves as a platform to showcase their awards, events, and educational initiatives targeting sports organizations, athletes, and youth. The organization maintains a credible market position supported by partnerships with reputable entities such as the IOC and UNESCO. Technically, the website is built on Joomla CMS and utilizes legacy JavaScript libraries including jQuery 1.7.2, which introduces security risks. The site is mobile-optimized with a moderate performance profile and basic SEO and accessibility features. Analytics are implemented via Google Analytics and Facebook SDK, indicating moderate user tracking. From a security perspective, HTTPS is enabled but lacks advanced security headers and uses outdated libraries, which could expose the site to vulnerabilities. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy and terms of service present but no cookie consent mechanism. WHOIS data is unavailable, reducing domain registration transparency but the website content and social presence support legitimacy. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from technical and security updates to enhance protection 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.

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

8 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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 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

    • 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

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

The International Fair Play Committee operates as a small-sized non-profit entity focused on sports ethics and fair play advocacy. Its business model revolves around organizing awards, educational programs, and events to promote sportsmanship. The organization targets sports professionals, youth, and enthusiasts worldwide. Its partnership ecosystem includes global sports and cultural organizations, enhancing its credibility and reach. The website reflects a stable digital presence but shows signs of technical debt with outdated technologies. Growth indicators include active news updates and social media engagement. Strategic observations suggest opportunities for modernization and enhanced privacy compliance to maintain competitive positioning in the non-profit sports sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled but lacks critical security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and HSTS. The use of outdated jQuery 1.7.2 introduces known vulnerabilities that could be exploited. No explicit incident response or security policy information is available, indicating potential gaps in security governance. Privacy compliance is partial, with no cookie consent mechanism detected, which may expose the organization to regulatory risks under GDPR. The contact information is transparent, but no dedicated security or abuse contacts are provided. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but requires urgent updates to libraries and implementation of security best practices to mitigate risks.

Recommendations

  1. Update all JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to the latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS.
  3. Introduce a cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  4. Establish and publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve security governance.
  5. Regularly audit website components and hosting environment to ensure ongoing compliance and security posture improvements.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS with several custom components and uses legacy JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.7.2 and jQuery UI 1.8.16, which are outdated and pose security risks. The site includes Facebook SDK for social integration and Google Analytics for tracking. Performance is moderate with responsive design for mobile devices. SEO is basic with meta tags and Open Graph data present but incomplete in some fields. Accessibility features are minimal. The site lacks modern security headers and advanced privacy features. Technical debt is evident, suggesting opportunities for modernization and improved security hardening.
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.
