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

The International Military Sports Council (CISM) operates as a prominent non-profit international organization dedicated to promoting military sports and fostering friendship through sport among armed forces worldwide. With 138 member countries, it organizes a wide range of military sports events, championships, and academic activities, positioning itself as a leading entity in the military sports domain. The website reflects this mission with comprehensive event coverage, news updates, and multilingual regulatory documents, targeting military personnel and associated organizations globally. Technically, the website employs a CMS named MasterEdit and integrates modern web technologies including Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking, alongside standard JavaScript libraries like jQuery. The site demonstrates moderate performance with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO practices are adequately implemented with proper meta tags and structured data. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks visible advanced security headers and explicit security policies or incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The WHOIS data is unavailable, likely due to privacy protection, which is common for international non-profits but slightly impacts trust assessment. Overall, the website is professional, content-rich, and trustworthy, serving its niche audience effectively. Strategic improvements in security transparency and accessibility could enhance its posture 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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

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

CISM holds a strong market position as a global leader in military sports, leveraging its extensive network of 138 member nations. Its business model centers on non-profit international cooperation, focusing on sports events, peace-building, and academic research within military contexts. Revenue streams likely include membership fees, sponsorships, and partnerships with sports and academic organizations. The organization targets military personnel, sports federations, and peace-promoting entities. The partnership ecosystem includes recognized bodies such as IOC and various sports federations, enhancing credibility and reach. Growth indicators include active event scheduling and recent news updates. The website's professional presentation and multilingual support reflect a mature digital presence aligned with its strategic goals.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is moderate. The website enforces HTTPS and cookie consent, indicating baseline security and privacy awareness. However, the absence of security headers like Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which limits transparency and preparedness perception. The use of third-party analytics and scripts is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. Compliance with GDPR is indicated through privacy policy and consent mechanisms. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-profit international organization but would benefit from enhanced policies, security headers, and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance website accessibility to meet higher standards, improving usability for all users.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and analytics tools to minimize security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the MasterEdit CMS platform, utilizing standard web technologies such as HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript libraries including jQuery and SWFObject. It integrates Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for user tracking and analytics. The site features responsive design elements and multiple CSS stylesheets for different screen sizes, indicating attention to mobile optimization. Performance is moderate, with some potential for improvement in load times and script optimization. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph data, and JSON-LD structured data for breadcrumbs. Accessibility is basic, with some ARIA landmarks and skip links present but could be enhanced. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified from the content.
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.
