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

GGD Gelderland-Zuid operates as a regional public health organization serving the Gelderland-Zuid area in the Netherlands. The website provides health-related information and services targeted at residents and healthcare professionals within the region. The organization is positioned as a governmental public health authority with a medium-sized operational scope, founded in 2011. The website's content and branding are consistent and professionally presented, supporting its role as a trusted health information source. Technically, the website is built on WordPress CMS, utilizing modern tools such as Yoast SEO Premium for search engine optimization, Cookiebot for cookie consent management, and Font Awesome for iconography. The site loads external scripts from reputable sources and implements DNSSEC and HTTPS, indicating a secure and modern infrastructure. Performance and mobile optimization are assessed as good, with accessibility features in place. From a security perspective, the site benefits from HTTPS and DNSSEC, and employs a cookie consent mechanism, but lacks visible security headers and published security policies or incident response information. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. Privacy compliance is partial, with cookie consent present but no explicit privacy policy found. Business credibility is strong due to domain age, consistent registration data, and professional presentation. Overall, the website presents a moderate to good risk profile with room for improvement in privacy policy publication, security header implementation, and incident response transparency. Strategic enhancements in these areas would strengthen trust and compliance.

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

1 finding 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.

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

GGD Gelderland-Zuid is a government-affiliated public health entity focused on delivering health services and information to the Gelderland-Zuid region. Its market position is that of a regional health authority, with key services including public health information dissemination and community health support. The business model is non-commercial, funded through governmental channels. The target audience includes local residents and healthcare professionals. The website reflects a medium-sized organization with a stable operational history since 2011. The partnership ecosystem is not explicitly detailed, and no subsidiaries or parent companies are indicated. The digital presence is professional, with SEO and accessibility considerations, supporting effective outreach and service delivery.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced and DNSSEC enabled, reducing risks of interception and DNS spoofing. Cookie consent is managed via Cookiebot, aligning with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options limits protection against certain web attacks. No security policy or incident response information is published, which could hinder transparency and preparedness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the analyzed content. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by implementing additional HTTP security headers and publishing comprehensive security and incident response policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and publish terms of service and security policy documents to enhance transparency.
  3. Add HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Develop and disclose an incident response plan and contact channels for security incidents.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

The website is built on a WordPress platform with a modern tech stack including Yoast SEO Premium, jQuery, Font Awesome, and Cookiebot. External resources are loaded from trusted domains, and DNSSEC is enabled, indicating attention to DNS security. Performance is moderate, with good mobile optimization and accessibility features.

The technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced security headers and performance optimizations.
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.
