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

3 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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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

  • DNS health: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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 entity operates as a government healthcare provider with an enterprise scale, delivering a broad spectrum of clinical, academic, and research programs. Its business model focuses on public healthcare service delivery supported by digital transformation initiatives. The website reflects a well-established market presence with strategic partnerships and certifications that enhance credibility. The target audience includes patients, healthcare professionals, and government bodies, with services tailored to meet their needs. The organization leverages digital channels for engagement and service provision, indicating a forward-looking approach to healthcare management and community interaction.

Security posture

The website exhibits a strong security posture with enforced HTTPS, secure form handling including CAPTCHA validation, and no exposed sensitive data in the HTML content. Security headers are likely implemented given the SharePoint platform, though explicit CSP headers were not confirmed. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security governance. No vulnerable or outdated libraries were detected, and third-party scripts are from reputable sources. Overall, the site aligns with good security practices but could improve by publishing formal security and incident response policies and establishing a vulnerability disclosure program.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and incident response procedures.
  2. Implement and publicly disclose a vulnerability disclosure policy (security.txt) to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers by explicitly defining a Content Security Policy (CSP).
  5. Provide clear contact information for the Data Protection Officer or privacy/security contacts.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Microsoft SharePoint, leveraging Bootstrap 5 for responsive design and jQuery for client-side scripting. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Ahrefs Analytics for tracking and performance insights, alongside accessibility enhancements from Mindrockets. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and accessibility compliance, with a moderate performance profile likely influenced by the SharePoint infrastructure. The technical implementation is modern and well-structured, with room for improvement in explicit security header configurations and performance tuning to enhance loading speeds.
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.
