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

Fim Europe is a prominent European motorcycling union serving as a governing body for motorcycling sports across Europe. The organization provides regulatory frameworks, organizes sporting events, and disseminates news and information to motorcycling enthusiasts and federations. Positioned as a leading entity in the transportation sports sector, Fim Europe targets motorcycling participants, federations, and stakeholders with a non-profit business model focused on sport governance and community engagement. The website reflects a medium-sized organization headquartered in Switzerland with additional offices in Italy. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a mature technology stack including jQuery, Owl Carousel, and various WordPress plugins such as Yoast SEO and Contact Form 7. Hosting is provided by DreamHost. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, and mobile responsiveness is good. SEO practices are well implemented, and social media integration is robust. From a security perspective, the site has a valid SSL certificate but lacks modern TLS protocol support and security headers. No DNSSEC or CAA records are configured, which could improve domain security. Cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policies are in place and GDPR compliant. However, no explicit security policy or incident response information is found, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present. Overall, Fim Europe’s website is professional and trustworthy with good content quality and user experience. Security posture is adequate but could benefit from enhancements in SSL configuration, security headers, and incident response transparency. Strategic improvements in these areas would strengthen trust and compliance, supporting the organization's reputation and operational resilience.

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

6 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

Fim Europe holds a strong market position as the European Motorcycling Union, providing governance and support to national federations and regional associations. Its business model is non-profit, focusing on sport regulation, event management, and community engagement. Revenue streams likely include membership fees, event sponsorships, and publication sales. The target audience includes motorcycling federations, athletes, enthusiasts, and related stakeholders. The organization demonstrates growth through active event calendars, media presence, and digital content. Partnerships with related domains such as fim-europe.eu and issuu.com enhance its ecosystem. The website content and structure indicate a well-established entity with consistent branding and a clear focus on motorcycling sports and related public affairs.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is moderate. The website uses a valid SSL certificate but does not support modern TLS versions, which is a significant security gap. Absence of HTTP security headers and DNSSEC reduces protection against common web attacks and domain hijacking. Cookie consent and privacy policies are implemented, indicating compliance with GDPR. However, no explicit security policy or incident response contact channels are published, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. No vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file is present, reducing opportunities for responsible vulnerability reporting. Overall, while basic security practices are in place, there is room for improvement to meet higher security standards and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3 protocols to enhance encryption security.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers such as HSTS, Content Security Policy, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Configure DNSSEC and CAA records to protect domain integrity and certificate issuance.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program and add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.

Notes

The website infrastructure is based on WordPress CMS with a comprehensive set of plugins for SEO, event management, forms, and progressive web app capabilities. Hosting is provided by DreamHost, a reputable provider. The site uses jQuery and Owl Carousel for UI components and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking. Performance is moderate with a page load time of approximately 4.3 seconds and 153 resources loaded, indicating potential for optimization. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility is basic. The technology stack is mature but could benefit from modernization in SSL/TLS configuration and security headers to reduce technical risks impacting business operations.
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.
