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

4 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 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

Moffitt Cancer Center operates in the healthcare sector with a focus on oncology. Its business model integrates patient care, research, and education, supported by extensive clinical trials and community programs. The organization targets patients, families, healthcare professionals, and researchers. The website’s content and certifications indicate a strong competitive advantage and leadership in cancer treatment in Florida. Marketing efforts leverage multiple ad networks and tracking technologies to reach and engage their audience effectively. The absence of registrant WHOIS data is typical for privacy reasons in healthcare. The site’s extensive resources and clear navigation support patient engagement and institutional credibility.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and no exposed sensitive data. The use of multiple third-party scripts and marketing pixels is managed without apparent vulnerabilities. However, explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not prominently published, representing an area for improvement. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found, which could enhance transparency and trust. Overall, the site is secure but could benefit from enhanced security communication and formalized incident response information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page with clear contact information.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Enhance transparency by providing data protection officer contact details.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts to mitigate supply chain risks.
  5. Maintain ongoing security awareness and update security headers and protocols as needed.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern CMS (Episerver) and uses a variety of contemporary web technologies including asynchronous JavaScript loading, multiple Google Tag Manager containers for segmented marketing, and Microsoft Application Insights for telemetry. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. The site uses multiple preloaded fonts and optimized images for a professional appearance. There is no indication of outdated or vulnerable libraries. The technical infrastructure supports a high-quality user experience but could be further optimized for speed and hosting transparency.
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.
