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

Horatio: European Psychiatric Nurses is a non-profit organization representing psychiatric and mental health nursing organizations across Europe. The website serves as an informational and networking platform for professionals in this sector, providing resources, events, publications, and networking opportunities. The organization positions itself as an active partner in European mental health discussions, focusing on nursing perspectives. Technically, the website is built on the Wix platform using Wix Thunderbolt and standard web technologies, offering moderate performance and good mobile optimization. However, the site lacks critical privacy and cookie policies, security headers, and explicit contact information, which impacts its security posture and privacy compliance. The WHOIS data is missing or unavailable, raising concerns about domain legitimacy. Overall, while the website content and design are professional and relevant to its audience, the security and compliance aspects require significant improvement to enhance trust and regulatory adherence.

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

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  2. 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

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

Horatio operates as a specialized non-profit entity within the healthcare sector, focusing on psychiatric and mental health nursing in Europe. Its business model revolves around advocacy, education, networking, and representation of nursing professionals. The organization leverages partnerships and collaborations with other health and nursing bodies to influence mental health policies and standards. The website reflects a clear target audience of nursing professionals and organizations, with key services including information dissemination, event hosting, and leadership development. The absence of detailed business registration and contact data on the website and WHOIS records limits transparency. The organization maintains a social media presence on Facebook and Instagram, supporting community engagement. Growth indicators and revenue streams are not publicly visible, typical for non-profit entities. Strategic observations suggest a need for enhanced digital trust signals and compliance documentation to strengthen market position and stakeholder confidence.

Security posture

The website currently demonstrates a basic security posture. HTTPS is presumably enabled given Wix hosting, but no explicit security headers were detected in the provided data. There is no evidence of privacy or cookie policies, GDPR compliance measures, or incident response contacts. The absence of WHOIS registration details is a significant red flag, potentially indicating domain registration issues or privacy protection that is not justified by the business type. No forms or input fields were found, reducing attack surface but also limiting user interaction. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, which minimizes privacy risks but also indicates limited user behavior insights. Recommendations include implementing standard security headers, publishing privacy and cookie policies, providing clear contact information for security incidents, and verifying domain registration details to improve legitimacy and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure transparency and legitimacy.
  4. Publish clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security-related inquiries.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and platform configurations to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Wix platform, utilizing Wix Thunderbolt and Wix UI libraries, which provide a modern and responsive framework. The use of polyfills ensures compatibility across browsers. Performance is moderate, with optimized images and mobile-friendly design. However, the site lacks advanced SEO optimization and accessibility features appear basic. No analytics or marketing tools were detected, indicating minimal tracking. The hosting provider is Wix, which generally offers reliable infrastructure but limits direct control over server-level security configurations. Technical debt is low due to the managed platform, but reliance on Wix restricts customization. Opportunities exist to enhance SEO, accessibility, and security configurations within the Wix environment to improve overall digital maturity.
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.
