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

Garage Grande is a community-driven urban greening project based in Vienna, Austria, focused on transforming a disused parking garage into a vibrant space for gardening, creativity, and neighborhood engagement. The website effectively communicates the project's mission, activities, and community involvement, targeting local residents and environmental enthusiasts. The project is positioned as a niche community initiative with a small organizational size and a clear focus on urban sustainability and social cohesion. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using popular plugins such as Yoast SEO and Google Maps API, providing a modern and responsive user experience with good SEO practices. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced, but could be improved by adding security headers and explicit security policies. Privacy compliance is basic with a privacy policy present but lacking cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the website is trustworthy, professional, and well-aligned with its community-oriented mission.

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

8 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 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

  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 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';…

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

The project operates in the non-profit/community sector with a focus on urban environmental improvement and social engagement. It leverages partnerships with local organizations such as Gebietsbetreuung Stadterneuerung and maintains active social media channels to engage its audience. The business model centers on community participation and urban space activation rather than commercial revenue streams. The website content and structure support this model by emphasizing collaboration, events, and local impact. Growth indicators include ongoing event programming and community projects. The partnership ecosystem is limited but relevant, enhancing credibility and local reach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of common security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others suggests room for improvement. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, which could be a gap in security readiness. The use of WordPress plugins necessitates regular updates to mitigate risks. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism detected, which may be a compliance risk under GDPR. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small community project but should be enhanced to protect user data and maintain trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and improve privacy compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance security posture.
  3. Publish a security policy or incident response page including contact channels for reporting security issues.
  4. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures and improve transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using the Understrap theme framework and several plugins including Yoast SEO for search engine optimization, WP Statistics for analytics, and Slide Anything for carousel functionality. It integrates Google Maps API for location services. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Owl Carousel. Performance is moderate, with minified CSS and JS assets cached for faster loading. Accessibility is basic with skip links and semantic HTML elements but could be improved with ARIA attributes and better keyboard navigation support. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph data, and JSON-LD structured data. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid for a small community project but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and security hardening.
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.
