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

Fondazione Nigrizia is a medium-sized Italian non-profit organization dedicated to supporting African humanitarian and development projects. The website serves as a platform for project promotion, donor engagement, event announcements, and membership subscriptions. It leverages WordPress with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Slick Carousel, and GDPR-compliant cookie management plugins. The site is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and provides clear contact channels and privacy policies, reflecting a mature digital presence. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS and uses cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks visible HTTP security headers, which could be improved to enhance protection. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The absence of WHOIS data limits full trust verification, but the professional presentation and consistent branding support legitimacy. Overall, the website is a reliable and professional digital asset for the organization, effectively balancing user experience, privacy compliance, and functional needs. Strategic improvements in security headers and incident response transparency would further strengthen its posture.

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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. 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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

Fondazione Nigrizia operates in the non-profit sector with a focus on African development and missionary projects. Its business model centers on fundraising through donations, memberships, and events. The organization maintains partnerships with related entities such as Nigrizia, AfriRadio, Piccolo Missionario, and Museo Africano, enhancing its ecosystem. The website targets donors, supporters, and individuals interested in African social causes. Content quality and branding are consistent, supporting a trustworthy image. The use of donation plugins and event management indicates a well-integrated operational approach. Growth potential lies in expanding digital engagement and enhancing transparency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent is managed via a GDPR-compliant plugin. However, the lack of HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents a gap. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is publicly available, which could be a concern for transparency. No exposed credentials or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The site uses reputable WordPress plugins but should ensure they are regularly updated. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-profit but can be improved with additional hardening and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve transparency.
  3. Enhance visibility of incident response contacts or procedures on the website.
  4. Regularly audit and update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Conduct periodic security assessments and penetration testing to identify and remediate risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern front-end stack including jQuery, Slick Carousel for sliders, and Choices.js for enhanced select inputs. It uses GiveWP for donation management and Complianz for GDPR cookie compliance. The site loads fonts from Google Fonts and uses CDN services like jsDelivr for libraries. Performance is moderate with lazy loading implemented for images. Accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels are present, indicating attention to inclusive design. SEO is supported by Yoast SEO plugin with proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced security headers 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.
