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 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

  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

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 28 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography
      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates

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.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention fxb.org, from OffSeq Breach.

Breach holds no records for fxb.org 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

FXB Global holds a strong market position as a medium-sized international NGO with a unique holistic approach to poverty eradication and climate advocacy. Their business model focuses on community empowerment and sustainable development, targeting vulnerable populations and donors. The organization leverages partnerships and a dedicated climate advocacy program to extend its impact. The website's content and structure support donor engagement and awareness building, though explicit contact details are limited. Growth indicators include extensive project deployment and notable testimonials from respected figures, enhancing credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, domain transfer lock, and no visible vulnerabilities. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for enhancement. No incident response or security policy information is published, which could be a gap in transparency and preparedness. The use of Facebook Pixel introduces moderate user tracking, necessitating clear cookie consent for GDPR compliance. Overall, the security measures are adequate for the organization's profile but could be strengthened to align with best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Add a visible cookie consent banner to comply fully with GDPR and inform users about tracking.
  4. Publish explicit security and incident response policies to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Provide clear and accessible contact information including emails and phone numbers for better user engagement.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with modern SEO and multilingual plugins (The SEO Framework, Weglot). It uses embedded YouTube videos and Facebook Pixel for marketing and analytics. Hosting is provided by Infomaniak, a reputable provider. The site is mobile responsive with good design quality and navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in accessibility features. No broken elements or errors were detected. The technical stack supports the organization's needs but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and privacy controls.
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.
