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

FICEP (Fédération Internationale Catholique d’Education Physique et sportive) is an international non-profit sports association promoting Christian ethical ideals in sports and communities. Established in 2003, it serves a niche audience of Christian sports organizations and advocates for the integration of Christian values in physical education and sports activities worldwide. The website reflects this mission with relevant content and a professional design tailored to its audience. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using popular plugins such as Modern Events Calendar Lite and Nextend Smart Slider3 Pro, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. The site is mobile-optimized and uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring secure communications. However, it lacks some key compliance documents such as a privacy policy and terms of service, which are important for GDPR and general user trust. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS but could be improved by adding security headers and publishing incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies. Overall, the website is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security documentation to improve trust 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

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

FICEP operates as a small-sized international non-profit organization focused on Christian sports education and advocacy. Its market position is specialized, targeting Christian sports communities globally. The business model revolves around community engagement, ethical advocacy, and event organization. The website's content and structured data confirm the organization's legitimacy and focus. The presence of a Facebook page supports community outreach. The organization does not appear to have subsidiaries or parent companies listed. The lack of explicit contact information on the homepage may limit direct engagement but aligns with typical non-profit organizational websites. The use of WordPress and event management plugins suggests an emphasis on event promotion and member engagement.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted data transmission. However, no security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, or X-Content-Type-Options were detected, which are recommended to enhance security against common web attacks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the HTML content. The site uses standard WordPress plugins, which should be regularly updated to mitigate vulnerabilities. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which could be improved to demonstrate security maturity. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented, indicating some level of privacy compliance. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be strengthened with additional security controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement standard security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection.
  3. Establish and publish an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to demonstrate security readiness.
  4. Add clear contact information including official emails and phone numbers to facilitate communication and trust.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress, leveraging popular plugins for event management and sliders, indicating a focus on content presentation and event promotion. The use of Yoast SEO plugin and structured JSON-LD data enhances search engine visibility and semantic understanding. The site loads multiple CSS and JS assets from its own domain, with some external calls to Google services for maps and analytics. Performance appears moderate with standard optimization practices. Mobile responsiveness is good, supported by CSS media queries and responsive design elements. Accessibility features are basic and could be improved. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified but the domain registrar is Ascio Technologies, Inc. Overall, the technical infrastructure is standard for a small non-profit organization with room for modernization and security enhancements.
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.
