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

The website www.itsalute.com is an Italian language health information portal providing articles and insights on various health topics including alternative medicine, cancer, nutrition, family health, and public health safety. It targets the general Italian-speaking public seeking health-related knowledge. The site structure is basic with a simple HTML/CSS design and limited interactive features. There is no evidence of advanced CMS or modern frameworks. The site lacks privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies, and no contact or social media information is provided, which limits business credibility and user trust. Technically, the site uses standard HTML and CSS with minimal JavaScript. There is no indication of HTTPS enforcement or security headers in the provided data, which poses security risks. The WHOIS lookup failed to retrieve domain registration details, raising concerns about domain legitimacy and ownership transparency. No analytics or advertising scripts were detected, suggesting minimal tracking or marketing infrastructure. From a security perspective, the absence of HTTPS and security headers, combined with missing privacy and contact information, indicates a low security posture. The site does not demonstrate compliance with GDPR or other privacy regulations. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is available. Overall, the site is functional but lacks critical security and compliance features. The overall risk assessment is moderate to high due to missing domain registration data and weak security practices. Strategic recommendations include implementing HTTPS, adding privacy and cookie policies, publishing clear contact and incident response information, and improving security headers to enhance trust and compliance.

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 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 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

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.

Breach exposure

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention itsalute.com, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for itsalute.com right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The website operates as a niche health information provider in the Italian market, focusing on a broad range of health topics. Its business model appears to be content publishing without evident monetization through advertising or affiliate marketing. The lack of business contact details and certifications limits its competitive positioning. The external links to other health-related domains suggest some ecosystem connections but no formal partnerships are evident. Growth indicators and parent or subsidiary company information are not available. The site serves a small audience segment interested in health education and wellness.

Security posture

The security maturity level of the website is low. Key vulnerabilities include lack of HTTPS, absence of security headers, no privacy or cookie policies, and no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. These gaps expose users to potential data interception and reduce trustworthiness. The missing WHOIS data further complicates trust assessment. There is no evidence of secure form handling beyond basic POST usage. Compliance with GDPR and other data protection regulations is not demonstrated. The site would benefit from a comprehensive security and privacy framework implementation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate to secure user connections.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and inform users.
  3. Add clear contact information including security and incident response contacts.
  4. Deploy security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and consider publishing a security.txt file.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using basic HTML and CSS with minimal JavaScript. No modern CMS or frameworks are detected. The site lacks meta tags beyond title and canonical link, limiting SEO effectiveness. Mobile optimization is basic but present. Accessibility features are minimal. No analytics or advertising technologies are embedded. Hosting provider and platform details are not discernible from the content. Performance is moderate given the simple design. Technical debt appears low but modernization opportunities exist to improve security and user experience.
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.
