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

Keep.eu is a specialized platform providing aggregated information on Interreg and IPA-IPA cross-border projects, partners, and programmes. It serves governmental and non-profit organizations involved in cross-border cooperation by consolidating operational and financial data in one accessible location. The website leverages a WordPress CMS with modern JavaScript libraries and integrates Google services such as Maps and Analytics, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and reCAPTCHA implemented, but lacks comprehensive privacy and security policies, which are critical for compliance and trust. Overall, the platform is functional and professionally presented but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security documentation.

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.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

  2. 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

  3. 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';…

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

The platform occupies a niche market segment focused on cross-border cooperation projects, primarily targeting government and non-profit sectors. Its business model revolves around information aggregation and dissemination rather than direct commercial transactions. The use of Google Analytics and Tag Manager suggests an interest in user behavior insights, potentially for improving service delivery or reporting. The absence of explicit contact information and legal disclosures may limit trust and user engagement. Strategic partnerships or parent company affiliations are not evident, indicating an independent or project-based operation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates basic security best practices such as HTTPS and reCAPTCHA integration, reducing risks from common web threats. However, the lack of a published privacy policy, terms of service, security policy, and incident response contacts represents compliance gaps, particularly under GDPR and related regulations. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present, which could hinder responsible vulnerability reporting. Security headers beyond HTTPS are not explicitly detected, suggesting room for improvement in defense-in-depth strategies. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires enhancements to meet higher compliance and trust standards.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a detailed privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement a security.txt file and clearly communicate incident response contacts for vulnerability reporting.
  3. Enhance HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Improve accessibility features and document data retention policies to align with GDPR requirements.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS, utilizing a modern tech stack including jQuery, Select2, Chart.js, Swiper, and Google Maps API. The presence of Yoast SEO plugin indicates attention to search engine optimization. Performance appears moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and use of CDN-hosted libraries. Mobile optimization is good, supported by responsive meta tags and CSS. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved. Hosting provider details are not explicitly available, limiting infrastructure assessment. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and security configurations.
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.
