The website evangelikus.hu serves as the official online portal for the Hungarian Evangelical Lutheran Church (Magyarországi Evangélikus Egyház - MEE). It provides comprehensive information about the church's structure, activities, news, and religious resources primarily targeting Hungarian-speaking members and the interested public. The site is well-branded and consistent with the organization's identity, featuring multilingual support and active social media channels. Technically, the site is built on Joomla CMS with YOOtheme Pro and UIkit frameworks, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The site enforces HTTPS and uses CSRF tokens in forms, indicating a good security baseline, although it lacks explicit security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies. Overall, the site demonstrates a solid digital presence appropriate for a medium-sized non-profit religious organization.

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

11 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.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  3. 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.

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 · found on this site
  • 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 Hungarian Evangelical Lutheran Church maintains a strong market position as a key religious institution in Hungary, offering a wide range of services including church governance information, religious education, media services, and community support. The website acts as a central hub for communication and outreach, supported by partnerships with affiliated domains and active social media engagement. The business model is non-profit and community-focused, with content tailored to members and the broader public interested in Lutheran faith and activities. The presence of multiple external affiliated domains and official publications enhances credibility and outreach capabilities.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and CSRF protection in place for forms. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options represents an area for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security governance. Tracking scripts from Google Analytics and Google Ads are present, which may have privacy implications if not properly disclosed. Overall, the security maturity is moderate to good but could benefit from enhanced header policies and privacy disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options) to strengthen defense against common web attacks.
  3. Provide clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure contact information to enhance transparency and security readiness.
  4. Review and disclose data collection and retention policies related to analytics and marketing tools.
  5. Conduct regular security audits to ensure no vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data exist.

Technical notes

Notes

The site uses a mature and stable technology stack centered on Joomla CMS with YOOtheme Pro and UIkit for UI components. JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Awesomplete, Swiper, and Glightbox enhance interactivity and media handling. Google Tag Manager integrates analytics and marketing scripts. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and basic accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in loading times and resource management. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, canonical links, and structured data in JSON-LD format. The technical infrastructure is suitable for the organization's needs but could be modernized further with enhanced accessibility and performance tuning.
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.
