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

The Lausanne Movement is a well-established non-profit organization focused on accelerating global Christian mission through collaboration, leadership development, and resource sharing. With a domain age of over 26 years and a consistent brand presence, it holds a strong position in the global mission community. The website offers rich content including articles, podcasts, videos, and event information targeting Christian leaders and influencers worldwide. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern SEO and analytics tools, ensuring good performance and mobile optimization. Security posture is solid with HTTPS, reCAPTCHA, and domain transfer protections, though DNSSEC and some security headers could be improved. Privacy compliance is adequate with a clear privacy policy but lacks a cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and serves its audience effectively.

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. 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';…

  2. 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

      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

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 organization operates in the non-profit sector with a focus on Christian mission and leadership. Its business model revolves around community building, education, and resource dissemination rather than commercial sales. The target audience includes global Christian leaders, churches, and mission organizations. The Lausanne Movement leverages digital content, events, and social media to maintain engagement and influence. The presence of multiple language versions and global events indicates a broad international reach. The organization benefits from a strong legacy and recognized brand in its niche, with no apparent competitors of similar scale in its domain.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced, use of Google reCAPTCHA on forms, and domain transfer lock status. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended enhancement for DNS security. Security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not explicitly detected, representing an opportunity for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, which could be addressed to improve transparency and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  4. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve trust and preparedness.
  5. Consider adding direct contact emails or phone numbers for better user support and transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress CMS with Yoast SEO plugin, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Hotjar, and UIkit framework. It uses Cloudflare for DNS management and NameCheap as the domain registrar. The site is mobile optimized and uses modern fonts and SVG icons. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and prefetching of external resources. The site uses Google reCAPTCHA v2 for form spam protection. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, though some security best practices like DNSSEC and security headers are missing. The site structure and metadata are well implemented, supporting SEO and accessibility.
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.
