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

Get Net Wise is a small non-profit website dedicated to providing curated content and resources focused on online safety, particularly for youth and families. It aggregates trusted articles from sources like Net Family News and Connect Safely, serving as an informational hub for parents and educators concerned with digital wellbeing. The website uses WordPress CMS with the Themify theme and builder, indicating a moderate level of technical maturity. The site is accessible, mobile-optimized, and presents content in a clear and navigable manner, though some SEO and accessibility features could be improved. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled, but lacks advanced security headers and formal security policies. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism or GDPR-specific indicators. Overall, the site appears legitimate and trustworthy, though WHOIS data is unavailable due to privacy protection, which is common for non-profit organizations.

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 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

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 website operates in the non-profit sector, targeting parents, educators, and individuals interested in youth online safety. Its business model centers on content aggregation and educational outreach rather than commercial transactions. The site maintains partnerships with reputable organizations such as Net Family News and Connect Safely, enhancing its credibility. There is no evidence of direct revenue streams or commercial affiliations. The lack of contact information and limited business disclosures suggest a small-scale operation focused on awareness and education. Growth potential may depend on expanding content offerings and improving user engagement features.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled, ensuring encrypted communications. However, it lacks important security headers like Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security, which could mitigate certain attack vectors. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure program indicates limited formal security governance. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent or GDPR compliance signals. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be significantly improved with implementation of best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie policy and consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations such as GDPR and improve user trust.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to demonstrate security governance and readiness.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance accessibility and SEO features to improve user experience and search engine visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using the Themify theme and builder framework, leveraging jQuery and Google Fonts for frontend functionality and styling. The site loads asynchronously some JavaScript resources and uses modern CSS features. Performance is moderate with no major blocking scripts detected. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design elements. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved. SEO optimization is minimal with basic meta tags but no Open Graph or Twitter Card metadata. No analytics or tracking scripts were found, indicating minimal user tracking. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure is standard for a small informational website but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
