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

FIVA (Fédération Internationale des Véhicules Anciens) is a globally recognized non-profit organization dedicated to the protection, preservation, and promotion of historic vehicles. Established in 1966 and active in over 80 countries, FIVA serves millions of historic vehicle enthusiasts worldwide and holds a consultative partnership with UNESCO. The organization offers membership services, event support, advocacy on legislation, and maintains a comprehensive document library to support the historic vehicle community. Their website reflects a professional and well-structured digital presence, emphasizing community engagement and education. Technically, the website employs modern JavaScript libraries such as Livewire (Laravel), GSAP, and Swiper.js, alongside Google reCAPTCHA v3 for form security. The site is mobile-optimized, fast-loading, and includes SEO best practices. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place, although explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not published. Analytics and marketing tools like Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel are used with user consent. The WHOIS data for the domain is unavailable or malformed, which limits the ability to fully verify domain registration legitimacy. Despite this, the website's professional design, clear contact information, and active social media presence support its credibility. No adult or questionable content is present, making the site safe for general audiences. Overall, FIVA's website demonstrates a mature digital infrastructure suitable for its global non-profit mission, with room for improvement in transparency around security policies and domain registration details.

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

3 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 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. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

FIVA occupies a strong market position as the leading global authority on historic vehicle preservation, leveraging its UNESCO partnership to enhance credibility. Its business model focuses on non-profit advocacy, membership engagement, event organization, and educational outreach. Revenue streams likely include membership fees, event sponsorships, and partnerships with manufacturers and service providers. The target audience includes historic vehicle owners, clubs, museums, and enthusiasts worldwide. The organization maintains a robust partnership ecosystem, including professional members and global partners such as Glasurit, Motul, Pirelli, and Eucon. Growth indicators include active event calendars and expanding commissions. The website's comprehensive content and social media integration reflect a strategic approach to community building and brand positioning.

Security posture

FIVA's website demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enforced and the use of Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect forms from automated abuse. The presence of a cookie consent banner with granular options indicates compliance with privacy regulations such as GDPR. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contact information, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents gaps in transparency and readiness. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The use of modern frameworks and regular updates likely contribute to a secure environment. Recommendations include publishing explicit security policies, adding a security.txt file, and enhancing header security configurations to further strengthen defenses.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  2. Implement and verify security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options explicitly.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve transparency.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities and update accordingly.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet or exceed compliance standards and improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including Laravel Livewire for reactive components, GSAP for animations, and Swiper.js for interactive sliders. Google reCAPTCHA v3 is integrated for bot protection on forms. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and demonstrates fast loading times. SEO practices are evident through proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). The hosting provider and CMS are not explicitly identified, but the use of Laravel Livewire suggests a custom backend. The site includes a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust, modern, and supports the organization's mission effectively.
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.
