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

10 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

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

  2. 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';…

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 institution holds a strong regional position as the official manager of protected areas in Karlovačka županija. Their competitive advantage lies in their governmental mandate and active community engagement through projects and educational programs. The website indicates ongoing projects, monitoring activities, and collaborations with local schools and environmental groups. Revenue streams are likely public funds and grants. The target audience includes local residents, environmentalists, educators, and visitors to protected sites. The organization demonstrates growth in public outreach and project implementation, supported by transparent communication and official documentation.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and is hosted under a reputable Croatian academic network (CARNET), which supports a good security baseline. However, some security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not explicitly detected, representing an area for improvement. No signs of exposed sensitive data or vulnerabilities were found in the HTML content. The absence of a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy suggests limited formal incident response readiness. Cookie consent mechanisms are missing, which may pose compliance risks under GDPR. Overall, the security posture is moderate but can be enhanced with additional headers and privacy controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a comprehensive cookie consent banner to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve incident response.
  4. Regularly audit and update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance privacy policy details with explicit data retention and processing information.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using WPBakery Page Builder, jQuery, and Font Awesome for UI elements. Hosting is provided by CARNET, a credible Croatian academic network, ensuring reliable infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility features and SEO practices. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in loading times and resource management. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from updated security configurations and enhanced privacy controls. No major technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected.
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.
