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.

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

The website represents a public sector entity under the Province of Drenthe, focusing on nature conservation and visitor services. Its market position is strong within the Dutch national park ecosystem, leveraging partnerships with regional and European organizations. The business model is non-commercial, centered on public service and environmental stewardship. Key services include visitor information, event organization, and educational outreach. The site’s content and partner ecosystem indicate a stable operational environment with growth potential in visitor engagement and digital outreach. The presence of multiple official partner domains reinforces credibility and collaborative governance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, cookie consent, and no exposed sensitive data. However, it lacks published security policies, incident response contacts, and a vulnerability disclosure mechanism such as a security.txt file. Security headers are not explicitly detected, suggesting room for improvement in defense-in-depth. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics is managed with consent, aligning with GDPR requirements. Overall, the security risk is low but could be enhanced by formalizing policies and improving header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a formal security policy and incident response information on the website.
  2. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures.
  3. Enhance HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Maintain and improve privacy compliance with clear data retention policies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the iprox CMS platform, utilizing modern web technologies including JavaScript and CSS. It integrates Google Analytics 4 via Google Tag Manager for analytics. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels. Performance is moderate, with no major issues detected in the HTML structure or resource loading. SEO is supported through meta tags and Open Graph properties. Hosting details are not explicitly identified, but the site uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate. Opportunities exist to modernize security headers and improve performance metrics further.
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.
