GGD is a Dutch public health organization providing regional health services and information, including locating GHOR (medical assistance organizations) in various regions. The website serves residents of the Netherlands seeking public health information and regional health emergency services. It is positioned as an established government health authority with a focus on public health promotion and prevention. The technical infrastructure is based on WordPress CMS with modern plugins such as Yoast SEO and Cookiebot for compliance and analytics integration via Piwik PRO and Google Tag Manager. The site uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent mechanisms, indicating a good level of digital maturity. Security posture is solid with encrypted connections and consent management, but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and serves its public health mission effectively, though it could improve transparency by publishing privacy, terms, and security policies.

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.

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

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 operates as a government entity in the healthcare sector, focusing on public health services across the Netherlands. Its business model is non-commercial, funded by government sources, targeting Dutch residents and health professionals. The website supports locating regional GHOR services, indicating a role in emergency health coordination. The organization leverages partnerships with analytics and compliance providers like Piwik PRO and Cookiebot. The site’s market position is strong within the public health domain, with consistent branding and a clear mission. Growth indicators include digital engagement through maps and search functionalities. No commercial partnerships or subsidiaries were identified from the content.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place. Use of Google Tag Manager and Piwik PRO indicates controlled analytics tracking with privacy considerations. However, the absence of explicit security headers (e.g., CSP, HSTS) and lack of published security or incident response policies represent gaps. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. The site does not provide a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file, limiting transparency for security researchers. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by formalizing security policies and improving HTTP header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve transparency and compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to facilitate responsible vulnerability reporting and incident management.
  4. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for public and security-related inquiries.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress using the FoundationPress theme and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and SEO-friendly infrastructure. It uses jQuery 3.6.0 and integrates Google Maps API for interactive location services. Cookiebot is used for cookie consent management, and Piwik PRO is employed for analytics, reflecting compliance with privacy regulations. The site loads external resources from trusted CDNs and Google domains. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. No critical technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected. Hosting provider details are not explicitly available from the content.
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.
