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

GGD Noord- en Oost-Gelderland operates as a regional public health authority in the Netherlands, focusing on promoting health and preventing health problems among residents of the Noord- en Oost-Gelderland region. The website serves as an informational portal offering extensive health-related topics including infectious diseases, vaccinations, youth health, sexual health, and environmental health. It targets residents, healthcare professionals, municipalities, schools, and businesses within the region. The organization positions itself as a trusted public health service provider with a comprehensive range of services aimed at community well-being. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and Laravel Livewire components. It integrates third-party services such as Monsido for accessibility and analytics, ReadSpeaker for text-to-speech, and Google Translate for multilingual support. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility features, and SEO practices, contributing to a positive user experience. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and includes standard security headers. Forms are protected with CSRF tokens, and cookie consent mechanisms comply with GDPR requirements. However, explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not publicly available, representing areas for improvement. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-maintained, with a strong alignment between domain registration and business identity. Strategic recommendations include publishing detailed security and incident response policies, enhancing direct contact information visibility, and implementing a formal vulnerability disclosure process to further strengthen security posture and user trust.

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 Noord- en Oost-Gelderland holds a key position as a regional public health service provider in the Netherlands, serving a large population with diverse health needs. Its business model is centered on public health promotion, disease prevention, and community health education, funded and operated as a government entity. The organization leverages partnerships with municipalities, schools, and healthcare professionals to extend its reach and impact. The website reflects a mature digital presence with comprehensive content tailored to multiple audience segments, indicating a strategic focus on accessibility and engagement. Growth indicators include integration of modern accessibility tools and multilingual support, enhancing inclusivity. The absence of commercial advertising and affiliate programs aligns with its public service mandate.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforcement, appropriate security headers, and CSRF protection on forms. The cookie consent banner provides transparency and user control over tracking technologies, supporting GDPR compliance. Use of third-party analytics and accessibility tools is managed with consent mechanisms. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure processes limits transparency and preparedness in handling security incidents. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The security posture is good but could be enhanced by formalizing security governance documentation and communication channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and user guidance.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance visibility of direct contact information including official emails and phone numbers for business and support.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and integrations to mitigate potential security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web standards and frameworks, including Laravel Livewire for dynamic components, ensuring a responsive and interactive user experience. Integration of Monsido enhances accessibility and analytics capabilities, while ReadSpeaker adds text-to-speech functionality, supporting inclusivity. The site is mobile-optimized with good performance metrics and SEO-friendly meta tags. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or framework-based solution. Hosting details are not disclosed, but SSL and security headers indicate a professionally managed infrastructure. Opportunities exist to improve technical documentation and transparency around hosting and platform details to support operational resilience.
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.
