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.

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.

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

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.

Business context
Business profile
The project targets migrant and new German organizations, providing financial support (~44,000€ per organization), coaching, and lobbying to improve inclusion and representation. The business model is non-profit and partnership-driven, with strong backing from established foundations. The website positions itself as a niche player in the social empowerment sector in Germany. The partnership ecosystem includes major non-profit organizations, enhancing credibility and reach. Growth indicators include a second funding phase and multiple projects supported. The site content and structure reflect a focused and mission-driven approach with clear calls to action and partner visibility.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, no exposed sensitive data, and a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not detected and could be added to enhance protection. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response information is provided, which is common for non-profit sites but could be improved. The absence of tracking or analytics services reduces privacy risks. Overall, the site is secure for its purpose but could benefit from additional security hardening and transparency.
Recommendations
Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance browser security.
Publish a security policy or incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
Add explicit contact phone numbers and physical address details to improve contactability and trust.
Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes
Notes
The website uses WordPress 6.8.3 with the Enfold theme and Avia framework, leveraging jQuery and Autoptimize for performance. Google Fonts and MediaElement.js are used for typography and media playback. The site is mobile optimized and uses lazy loading for images. Performance is moderate with caching and minification in place. No major technical debt or outdated libraries detected. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. SEO is supported with proper meta tags and canonical links. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with ARIA roles and better keyboard navigation support.
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.
