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

Magna Vitae Trust for Leisure & Culture is a UK-based non-profit organization providing a broad range of leisure, fitness, cultural, and community activities. Their services include fitness classes, theatre performances, swimming lessons, and community engagement programs, targeting a general audience interested in health, wellbeing, and cultural enrichment. The organization operates multiple leisure venues and maintains a strong digital presence with social media integration and online booking capabilities. Technically, the website is built on WordPress and leverages modern web technologies such as AlpineJS, jQuery, and Typekit fonts. It uses Cloudflare for DNS and CDN services, and integrates analytics and marketing tools including Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Facebook Pixel. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO practices and accessibility features, although some accessibility improvements could be made. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, uses domain locking mechanisms, and provides a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. However, it lacks DNSSEC and some advanced security headers, and does not publicly disclose a security policy or incident response contacts. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the website demonstrates a solid security posture and digital maturity appropriate for a medium-sized non-profit organization. Strategic improvements in security headers, DNSSEC adoption, and transparency in privacy and security policies would enhance trust and compliance further.

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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Magna Vitae occupies a regional niche in the leisure and culture sector within the UK, focusing on community engagement and health-related activities. Its non-profit business model is supported by venue management, activity programs, and event hosting. The organization benefits from partnerships with local venues and festivals, and maintains a multi-channel digital marketing approach. The website supports online bookings and memberships, indicating a hybrid revenue stream combining public funding, memberships, and event income. The presence of social media and embedded video content suggests active audience engagement and brand building. The company appears stable with consistent domain registration since 2014 and no suspicious patterns in its digital footprint.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security baseline with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer/update protections in place. The cookie consent mechanism is robust, offering granular user controls and transparency. However, the absence of DNSSEC and some recommended HTTP security headers (e.g., Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options) represents areas for improvement. No direct contact information for security incidents or a published security policy was found, which could hinder incident response and trust. The use of third-party analytics and marketing tools is standard but requires ongoing monitoring to ensure privacy compliance. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the organization's risk profile but could be enhanced with additional controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a clear privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to harden the website against common attacks.
  4. Provide explicit contact information for security incidents, including an incident response email address.
  5. Conduct an accessibility audit and implement improvements to meet WCAG standards for better inclusivity.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform with a well-structured theme and plugins including WPForms and CookieYes for forms and consent management. It uses CDN and DNS services from Cloudflare, enhancing performance and security. The site loads external resources such as Typekit fonts and Plyr video player for rich media content. Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel are integrated for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine understanding. Performance is moderate, with potential optimization opportunities in resource loading and accessibility compliance.
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.
