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

GGD Gooi en Vechtstreek is a regional public health service organization serving multiple municipalities in the Netherlands. The website provides comprehensive information about public health services including youth and family health, infectious disease control, vaccinations, and childcare supervision. It targets residents, healthcare professionals, and local government partners in the Gooi en Vechtstreek region. The organization positions itself as a trusted government health authority with a clear regional focus and a medium-sized operational scale. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using modern plugins and technologies such as Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, and Slider Revolution. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly with proper metadata and structured data. Performance is moderate with good user experience and navigation clarity. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and implements cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR requirements. However, explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not found. Security headers could be enhanced to improve protection. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the website demonstrates a solid digital presence with good privacy compliance and business credibility. The domain registration data aligns well with the organization's identity, supporting legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include publishing security policies, enhancing security headers, and adding incident response contact information to 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

2 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';…

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 Gooi en Vechtstreek operates as a government health service entity focused on public health in a defined Dutch region. Its business model is service-oriented, funded by local municipalities, providing essential health services such as vaccinations, youth health programs, and infectious disease management. The organization maintains partnerships with local municipalities as evidenced by linked municipal domains. The website content and structure indicate a focus on transparency, community engagement, and professional service delivery. Growth indicators include active news updates and community campaigns. The organization leverages digital tools for outreach and analytics but maintains a conservative approach to marketing and advertising.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS and cookie consent aligned with GDPR. Use of Google Tag Manager and analytics is consent-based, reflecting privacy awareness. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates room for improvement in security governance. Security headers are partially implemented or not explicitly detected, suggesting potential enhancement areas. No signs of malware, phishing, or exposed credentials were found. The site does not appear to be protected by a WAF or present blocking challenges, allowing full content access. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from formalized policies and improved header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and controls.
  2. Add incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Continue maintaining GDPR compliance and enhance transparency around data retention and analytics usage.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform with a modern tech stack including PHP, jQuery, and popular plugins like Slider Revolution and Zebra Tooltips. It uses Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity for analytics and user behavior tracking, integrated with cookie consent mechanisms. The site is mobile responsive and accessible with good SEO metadata and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and lazy loading of images. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Technical debt appears low, but security header implementation could be improved. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a stable and professional web presence suitable for a government health service.
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.
