GGD GHOR Nederland is a well-established national umbrella organization representing 25 regional public health (GGD) and safety (GHOR) bureaus in the Netherlands. The organization focuses on advocacy, coordination, and strengthening public health and safety across the country. Their website reflects a mature digital presence with professional design, clear navigation, and comprehensive content tailored to both professionals and the general public. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using FoundationPress, with modern libraries and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager and Piwik PRO, complemented by Cookiebot for consent management.

Privacy compliance is robust, with clear privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. Overall, the domain registration data aligns well with the organization's claims, supporting legitimacy and trustworthiness.

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. 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

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 organization operates in the government and healthcare sectors as a non-profit entity focused on public health and safety. It holds a strong market position as the central representative body for regional GGD and GHOR bureaus. Its business model revolves around advocacy, project execution, and member support. The website's external links and partnerships indicate a broad collaboration network with government bodies, academic institutions, and healthcare organizations. The content quality and branding consistency reinforce its authoritative presence in the Dutch public health domain.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced and DNSSEC enabled, reducing risks of interception and DNS spoofing. The presence of cookie consent and privacy policies indicates compliance with GDPR. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and a published security policy or incident response contact limits the security maturity. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file was found, which could enhance transparency and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement additional HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to harden security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page and provide clear incident response contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails).
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Continue monitoring and updating third-party libraries to avoid vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and document data retention policies for analytics and user data.

The website uses a modern WordPress CMS with a child theme of FoundationPress, leveraging jQuery 3.6.0 and FontAwesome 6.1.1 for UI elements. Analytics are managed via Piwik PRO and Google Tag Manager, integrated with Cookiebot for GDPR-compliant consent. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good accessibility practices. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed and resource optimization. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and secure user experience.
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.
