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.

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 federation targets film producers and audiovisual stakeholders, providing policy advocacy, accreditation programs for festivals, and resources such as position papers. The domain age and privacy protection align with a mature organization. Social media integration on Twitter and LinkedIn supports outreach and engagement. The business model is non-profit and advocacy-driven, positioning FIAPF as a key player in the international film production ecosystem. No direct revenue streams or commercial activities are evident on the site, consistent with its federation status.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and domain transfer protection, uses a reputable registrar, and implements cookie consent compliant with GDPR. However, it lacks visible security headers and a published security policy or incident response plan. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The absence of a security.txt or vulnerability disclosure page suggests an opportunity to enhance transparency and incident readiness. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the organization's profile but could be strengthened with additional best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly audit and update plugins and themes to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Ultimate VC Addons, and various plugins for SEO, accessibility, and analytics. Hosting is provided by Infomaniak, a reputable Swiss provider. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with good SEO metadata and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and resource optimization. The use of Matomo analytics indicates a preference for privacy-conscious tracking. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance tuning.
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.
