KOLO is a Ukrainian non-profit charitable foundation established in 2022 by members of the tech community to provide technological support and devices to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The organization operates a professional and well-branded website offering multiple donation channels including one-time donations, subscriptions, and targeted fundraising campaigns. The site demonstrates strong transparency through detailed financial and photo reports, and maintains active engagement with partners and the public via social media and clear contact information. Technically, the website leverages modern analytics and tracking tools such as Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and Hotjar, hosted primarily on AWS infrastructure, ensuring good performance and mobile optimization. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protections, though DNSSEC is not enabled and no explicit security policy or incident response contacts are published. Overall, KOLO presents a trustworthy and credible digital presence aligned with its mission to support Ukraine's defense through technology.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  3. 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

KOLO occupies a leading position within the Ukrainian tech community's charitable sector, focusing on military support through technology donations. Its business model relies on donations and subscription-based funding, targeting tech professionals, military supporters, and the general public interested in contributing to Ukraine's defense. The foundation benefits from a strong partnership ecosystem including payment processors and tech companies, enhancing its fundraising capabilities. Growth indicators include substantial funds raised (over 1.2 billion UAH) and thousands of devices delivered. The organization's transparent reporting and active social media presence support donor trust and engagement. KOLO's operations reflect a medium-sized non-profit with a clear mission and effective digital infrastructure.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, clientTransferProhibited domain status, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. Use of reputable analytics and tracking services is implemented with asynchronous loading to minimize performance impact. However, the absence of DNSSEC and a published security policy or incident response contact channels represent areas for improvement. No vulnerabilities or suspicious scripts were detected in the provided content. The foundation should consider publishing a security.txt file and formalizing incident response procedures to enhance security transparency and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contacts.
  3. Develop and publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  4. Implement explicit incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with modern web technologies including JavaScript, CSS, and uses Google Fonts for typography. It integrates Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and Hotjar for analytics and user behavior tracking. Assets are hosted on Amazon S3, indicating use of AWS infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and fast loading times. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. The technical implementation is robust with good SEO metadata and accessibility considerations. Opportunities exist to enhance DNS security and formalize security documentation.
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.
