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 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

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 targets families and children interested in athletics, positioning itself as a key regional sports entity in Victoria. Its business model revolves around membership fees, educational programs, and community engagement rather than commercial profit. Partnerships with related domains such as an official online shop and centre resources enhance its service offerings. The website content and structure support clear communication of services and events, fostering community involvement. Growth indicators include active news updates and strategic partnerships. The lack of explicit business registration details on the site is typical for non-profit organizations but could be improved for transparency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and no immediate vulnerabilities detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents potential risk areas. The lack of a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file indicates limited incident response readiness. Privacy compliance gaps, including missing privacy and cookie policies, expose the organization to regulatory risks. The use of third-party analytics and marketing tools necessitates careful data protection practices. Overall, the security posture is adequate but requires enhancements to align with best practices and compliance requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to strengthen DNS security.
  3. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve incident response transparency.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress 6.8.1, utilizing plugins like Modern Events Calendar and Slider Revolution, supported by jQuery and FontAwesome for UI elements. It integrates Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and OneSignal for analytics, marketing, and push notifications. Hosting is provided by Synergy Wholesale Accreditations Pty Ltd. The site shows good mobile responsiveness and SEO optimization with structured data and meta tags. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed and accessibility. The technical stack is modern but requires ongoing maintenance to avoid plugin vulnerabilities and ensure compliance with evolving web standards.
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.
