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
8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
Email security
SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.
Critical
No email authentication configured
Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing
What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately
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 Strict-Transport-Security header
Forces HTTPS connections
What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"
This scan found 29 issues across 6 checks. Monitoring re-runs those checks daily, emails you when something material changes and records each fix, so you can show progress.

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.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The organization positions itself as a key player in the Hip Hop dance competition space, with a focus on inclusivity, respect, and unity. Its business model revolves around event organization and community engagement rather than commercial sales. The presence of testimonials and committee member profiles enhances credibility. The target audience includes dancers of various age groups and skill levels worldwide. The company leverages social media and email marketing to maintain engagement. Growth potential lies in expanding membership and event offerings. No direct competitors or partners were identified from the data.
Security posture
The website employs HTTPS and uses reputable WordPress plugins, indicating a baseline security maturity. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could hinder rapid response to security issues. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but lacking cookie consent mechanisms. No exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could benefit from enhanced policies and technical controls.
Recommendations
Implement comprehensive security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to mitigate common web attacks.
Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to improve privacy compliance and GDPR adherence.
Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and readiness.
Regularly audit and update all plugins and themes to minimize vulnerability risks.
Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including Bootstrap, jQuery, and various plugins for media, forms, and social feeds. The site is mobile responsive and uses a slider for dynamic content presentation. Performance is moderate, with no major issues detected. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. The site lacks advanced analytics or tracking scripts, indicating minimal user tracking. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the data. Overall, the technical implementation is solid for a community-focused site but could be enhanced with performance optimizations and security hardening.
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.
