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

The National Association of Attorneys General (NAAG) operates as a nonpartisan national forum dedicated to empowering and supporting attorneys general across the United States. The organization provides training, research, policy advocacy, and resources through various centers and initiatives, positioning itself as a key resource and collaborative platform for legal professionals in government. The website reflects a mature digital presence with professional design, clear navigation, and comprehensive content tailored to its target audience. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern plugins and integrations such as Gravity Forms, Google Tag Manager, and Hotjar, indicating a well-maintained infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices and structured data enhancing search visibility. Security measures include HTTPS enforcement and multiple security headers, contributing to a strong security posture. However, the absence of explicit privacy and cookie policies and the lack of WHOIS registration data introduce some concerns regarding transparency and compliance. While the site uses tracking and analytics tools, it lacks visible GDPR compliance mechanisms such as cookie consent banners. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be improved with clearer privacy disclosures and incident response information. The risk assessment suggests a generally trustworthy and professional site with moderate risk due to missing WHOIS data and privacy policy gaps. Strategic recommendations include publishing comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, implementing consent mechanisms, and enhancing transparency around security and data protection practices.

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

6 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. 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

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

NAAG holds a strong market position as a nonprofit government association serving attorneys general and their staff. Its competitive advantage lies in its specialized focus on legal and law enforcement issues, offering tailored training, research, and advocacy services. The business model is membership-based, supported by events, educational programs, and policy initiatives. The organization targets legal professionals and government officials, with growth indicators seen in its extensive event calendar and training offerings. Partnerships with entities like Smartsheet for training requests indicate a collaborative ecosystem. The website's professional content and consistent branding reinforce its credibility and authority in the sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and multiple security headers such as HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and Content-Security-Policy. Forms are protected with Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate spam and abuse. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. Compliance with GDPR and other data protection regulations is not clearly indicated, and cookie consent mechanisms are absent, which could pose compliance risks. Overall, the site is secure but should enhance its compliance and incident response documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies prominently linked on the website.
  2. Implement a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  3. Develop and publish a security incident response policy and contact information.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Add data protection officer contact details if applicable to improve transparency and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using a variety of modern plugins including Gravity Forms for form management, Toolset Blocks for content building, and Events Calendar Pro for event management. It integrates analytics and tracking tools such as Google Tag Manager and Hotjar, indicating a focus on user behavior analysis and performance monitoring. The site uses standard web technologies including jQuery and MediaElement.js for media playback. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. The technical infrastructure is robust but could benefit from clearer hosting provider information and ongoing audits of third-party scripts to mitigate potential risks.
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.
