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

Foyer vzw is a Belgian non-profit organization dedicated to social services, including support for Roma and caravan dwellers, multilingualism initiatives, intercultural mediation, youth engagement, and community workshops. The organization targets local communities, social workers, and educators, providing a range of services aimed at social inclusion and education. The website reflects a well-structured and professionally maintained digital presence, leveraging WordPress and modern web technologies to deliver content in multiple languages. Social media integration and clear contact information enhance community engagement. Technically, the website uses a robust WordPress infrastructure with popular plugins such as Elementor, Gutena Forms, and WPML for multilingual support. The site is mobile-optimized and employs HTTPS, ensuring secure communication. Performance is moderate with good SEO and accessibility basics in place. However, there is room for improvement in security headers and explicit privacy and cookie policy disclosures. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates a good baseline with HTTPS and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Tracking technologies like Facebook Pixel and Google Analytics are used, but cookie consent mechanisms are not clearly visible, which may impact GDPR compliance. The absence of a security.txt file and incident response contacts suggests limited formal security policy communication. Overall, Foyer vzw presents a trustworthy and professional online presence appropriate for a non-profit organization. Strategic improvements in privacy compliance and security best practices would enhance their digital maturity and user trust.

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

10 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

  2. 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"

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

Foyer vzw operates as a medium-sized non-profit entity within Belgium, focusing on social inclusion and community services. Its market position is that of a well-established local organization with a diverse portfolio of social and educational programs. The business model relies on service provision, likely funded through grants and community support. The organization maintains a multilingual website to serve diverse audiences and leverages social media for outreach. The presence of multiple service offerings and community engagement initiatives indicates a broad target customer base including vulnerable populations and social workers. The website's technical infrastructure supports scalability and multilingual content delivery, positioning Foyer vzw for sustained community impact and growth.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and no evident exposure of sensitive data. The use of modern WordPress plugins and regular updates likely contributes to a secure environment. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of a security.txt file indicate areas for enhancement. Tracking pixels are implemented, but cookie consent mechanisms are not clearly presented, which may pose compliance risks under GDPR. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, suggesting limited transparency in security governance. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a non-profit but would benefit from formalized policies and improved technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear user consent mechanisms to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a security.txt file and incident response contact information to improve transparency and facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  4. Regularly audit and update all plugins and WordPress core to mitigate risks from outdated software.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic security training to foster a security-aware culture within the organization.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.3.5 with a modern tech stack including Bootstrap 4.4.1, jQuery, and Elementor page builder. It uses multiple plugins for forms, multilingual support (WPML), social sharing, and analytics (WP Statistics, Google Analytics). The site loads external resources from trusted CDNs such as Google Fonts and Cloudflare. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. The site lacks advanced security headers and explicit privacy/cookie policy implementations. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the HTML content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could be improved with enhanced security configurations and privacy compliance features.
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.
