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.

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 platform operates as a government public safety communication channel, targeting a broad audience within the Haaglanden region. It benefits from official backing by Veiligheidsregio Haaglanden, enhancing trust and authority. The business model focuses on information dissemination rather than commercial revenue. Partnerships with regional fire departments and health organizations are evident through linked domains and logos. The site’s content strategy emphasizes timely incident alerts and educational resources, supporting community resilience. Growth potential lies in expanding digital engagement and integrating more interactive safety tools. The marketing ecosystem includes social media presence and consent-managed analytics, supporting outreach and data-driven improvements.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, DNSSEC, and a cookie consent framework compliant with GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page and incident response contact details limits transparency for security researchers and users. The use of third-party scripts like Google Tag Manager and Cookiefirst is managed responsibly, but continuous monitoring is recommended. The site’s security score is high, reflecting good practices but with room for enhancement in formal security disclosures and vulnerability reporting mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and user guidance.
  2. Add explicit incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by providing data retention policies related to analytics and user data.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10, a modern and secure CMS platform, ensuring maintainability and extensibility. Integration with Google Tag Manager and Google Maps API enhances functionality and user experience. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in asset loading and caching strategies. The use of Cookiefirst for consent management demonstrates compliance with privacy regulations. Hosting details beyond the registrar are not explicit, but DNSSEC and HTTPS indicate a secure infrastructure. Overall, the technical implementation supports the site’s mission effectively with opportunities for performance tuning and enhanced security disclosures.
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.
