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

Freiwilligen Zentrum Salzburg is a regional non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and coordinating voluntary social engagement in the Salzburg region of Austria. The organization acts as a hub and service center for volunteers and social institutions, offering information, placement, and training services. The website is professionally designed using WordPress with modern plugins such as Elementor and Yoast SEO, providing a good user experience and mobile optimization. Social media integration and a cookie consent mechanism demonstrate digital maturity and privacy awareness.

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

4 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 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
  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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.

Breach exposure

Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention freiwilligenzentrum-salzburg.at, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for freiwilligenzentrum-salzburg.at right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The organization holds a strong market position as a key facilitator of volunteer work in Salzburg, partnering with major social service providers like Caritas Salzburg and Hilfswerk Salzburg. Its business model focuses on non-profit service provision, supporting volunteers and social institutions through brokerage, education, and events. The target audience includes volunteers, coordinators, and social organizations within the region. The website content and branding are consistent and trustworthy, supported by testimonials and partnerships. Growth potential lies in expanding educational offerings and digital engagement.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and a cookie consent mechanism, indicating compliance with basic security and privacy standards. Use of Matomo analytics suggests a privacy-conscious approach. However, the absence of published security policies, incident response contacts, and security headers represents gaps in transparency and defense-in-depth. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved with formal documentation and enhanced HTTP headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page clearly accessible from the homepage.
  2. Add terms of service and security policy pages to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Implement and publish incident response contact information for security issues.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options.
  5. Regularly review and update WordPress plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress using Elementor for page building and Yoast SEO for optimization. It uses Matomo for analytics, which is privacy-friendly. The site loads with moderate speed and is mobile optimized. The presence of Borlabs Cookie plugin ensures cookie consent compliance. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, though hosting provider details are not explicit. The site shows no signs of technical debt or broken elements in the scanned content. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and formalize privacy and security documentation.
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.
