Medium risk. 5 critical or high findings in SSL/TLS and GDPR outside view.

Security score

62/100

Risk levelMedium

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

The Icelandic association for search, rescue & injury prevention, known as Slysavarnafélagið Landsbjörg, operates as a nonprofit organization dedicated to saving lives and preventing accidents in Iceland. The organization relies heavily on volunteer efforts and donations, positioning itself as a key player in Iceland's emergency response and safety ecosystem. The website reflects this mission with clear calls for support and detailed information about their activities and sponsors. Technically, the website is built on modern frameworks such as Next.js and Prismic CMS, ensuring a responsive and accessible user experience. The presence of Google Tag Manager and CookieHub indicates a moderate level of digital maturity with some privacy compliance mechanisms in place. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and uses cookie consent but lacks advanced security headers and published security policies, which could be improved to enhance trust and compliance. The absence of WHOIS data reduces transparency but does not necessarily indicate illegitimacy given the organization's public presence and sponsorships. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but could benefit from enhanced security and privacy disclosures.

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

5 findings 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  2. 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

Slysavarnafélagið Landsbjörg holds a strong market position as Iceland's primary search and rescue nonprofit, supported by major Icelandic sponsors and a large volunteer base. Their business model is donation-driven, targeting the general public and stakeholders interested in safety and emergency preparedness. The organization leverages partnerships with related Icelandic entities such as landsbjorg.is and safetravel.is, enhancing its ecosystem. The website's content and structure support donor engagement and volunteer recruitment, indicating a focus on community involvement and transparency. Growth indicators include active social media presence and ongoing projects like Erasmus+ community preparedness. The lack of detailed financial or organizational data online suggests a typical nonprofit transparency level but could be improved for donor confidence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security posture with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented. However, it lacks several best practices such as security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options), published security policies, and incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file limits external security engagement. Compliance with GDPR is partially indicated by cookie consent but no explicit privacy policy was found, representing a compliance gap. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be significantly improved by adopting standard security headers, publishing policies, and enhancing transparency around data protection and incident response.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve security posture.
  4. Consider adding a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure page to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Improve WHOIS transparency or provide domain registration details publicly to enhance legitimacy and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Next.js framework with React, leveraging Prismic CMS for content management. It uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and CookieHub for cookie consent management. The site is mobile optimized and accessible with good SEO practices including meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate with preloading of images and CSS. No hosting provider information was explicitly found. The site lacks some security headers which could be added to reduce risk. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and well implemented but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and more transparent domain registration data.
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.
