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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
  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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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 · found on this site
  • 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 school operates as a small, essential entity within the education sector, focusing on specialized services for children with special needs. Its business model centers on providing tailored educational and therapeutic services, supported by community engagement such as parent forums. The website content and structure reflect a stable market position with clear service offerings and local relevance. There is no evidence of commercial advertising or monetization beyond educational services. The absence of social media and advanced marketing tools suggests a focus on direct community engagement rather than broad digital marketing. The institution maintains a consistent brand and professional online presence, supporting trust and credibility within its niche.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communications. However, it lacks several recommended security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected, and cookie consent mechanisms align with GDPR requirements. The absence of an incident response contact or vulnerability disclosure policy indicates room for improvement in security transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could benefit from implementing best practices and formal policies to strengthen resilience and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS to enhance web security.
  2. Publish an incident response contact and consider a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency.
  3. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Consider adding terms of service and more detailed privacy documentation to cover all compliance aspects.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress using the Genesis Framework and WPBakery Page Builder, with common plugins for responsive menus, cookie consent, and sliders. The tech stack includes jQuery and jQuery UI libraries, which are somewhat dated but still widely supported. Performance is moderate with standard optimization; mobile responsiveness is good. SEO is supported by meta tags and structured navigation. No advanced hosting or CDN information is available. The site could benefit from modernizing some JavaScript libraries and implementing additional security headers. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable and suitable for a small educational institution.
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.
