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

Ljósmæðrafélag Íslands is a professional association dedicated to midwives in Iceland, providing comprehensive support and services to both practicing midwives and midwifery students. The organization focuses on labor issues, professional development, and member benefits, positioning itself as a key national entity in the healthcare sector for maternal care. The website is well-structured, professionally designed, and serves as a central hub for information, news, and resources relevant to its members and the public. Technically, the site leverages modern web technologies including Next.js and Prismic CMS, ensuring a responsive and accessible user experience. Security measures such as HTTPS and appropriate security headers are in place, contributing to a strong security posture. However, the absence of explicit incident response contacts and vulnerability disclosure policies suggests areas for improvement in transparency and security readiness. Overall, the site reflects a mature digital presence aligned with the organization's professional and non-profit nature.

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

5 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.

    • 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

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Facebook, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  2. 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

The association operates within the healthcare and non-profit sectors, targeting midwives and parents in Iceland. Its business model revolves around membership services, professional advocacy, and educational support. The website's content and structure indicate a focus on member engagement through publications, grants, and labor negotiations. Partnerships with related Icelandic organizations and government entities are evident through external links. The organization's market position is stable within its niche, supported by consistent branding and a clear value proposition. Growth opportunities may include enhanced digital engagement and expanded online services. The lack of detailed financial or founding data limits deeper business analysis but the professional presentation and comprehensive content suggest a well-established entity.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforcement and multiple security headers implemented. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The absence of a public security policy or incident response information is a gap that could affect stakeholder trust and incident handling efficiency. No evidence of outdated or vulnerable libraries was found. Privacy compliance is supported by comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, though the lack of a cookie consent mechanism is a minor shortfall. Overall, the security posture is strong for a non-commercial professional association website but could benefit from enhanced transparency and formalized security disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible and user-friendly cookie consent mechanism to enhance privacy compliance.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance analytics and tracking transparency, ensuring minimal user tracking aligned with privacy policies.
  5. Maintain regular security audits and update third-party libraries to mitigate emerging vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React-based framework (Next.js) with content managed via Prismic CMS, enabling efficient content updates and scalability. The use of Typekit fonts and responsive design techniques ensures good user experience across devices. Performance appears moderate with optimized images and preloading strategies. Accessibility features such as skip links and semantic HTML are present, supporting inclusive access. SEO is well addressed through meta tags and Open Graph data. Hosting details are not explicitly identified but the infrastructure supports secure and performant delivery. Opportunities exist to further optimize loading times and enhance analytics integration for better user insights.
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.
