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

North Perth Community Hospice is a small non-profit organization dedicated to providing compassionate hospice and palliative care services to individuals and families in the North Perth region of Canada. Their services include volunteer hospice care, grief support for adults and children, community education, and resource lending. The organization positions itself as a trusted local community hospice with a focus on personalized care and volunteer engagement. Technically, the website is built on the MultiScreenSite CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Snowplow Analytics for tracking. The site is mobile optimized and includes accessibility features, though there is room for improvement in security headers and privacy compliance mechanisms. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, but the absence of security headers and cookie consent mechanisms are notable gaps. The WHOIS data is unavailable, which limits domain trust verification, but the website content and trust indicators such as audited financial statements and clear contact information support legitimacy. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and serves its community-focused mission effectively.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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

  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

The hospice operates in the non-profit sector, focusing on healthcare-related community services. Its business model relies on volunteer engagement and community support, with revenue likely from donations and grants. The presence of audited financial statements and a Multi-Sector Accountability Agreement with Ontario Health West indicates transparency and accountability. The target audience includes patients requiring hospice care, their families, and community members seeking grief support or educational resources. The organization maintains a modest digital presence with a well-structured website but lacks social media integration. The use of Snowplow Analytics suggests an interest in understanding visitor behavior for outreach and engagement. There are no indications of partnerships or subsidiaries from the website content.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and registers a service worker for progressive web app capabilities, indicating a modern approach to security and performance. However, the absence of common security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security posture. No forms are present on the homepage, minimizing attack surface, but the lack of a cookie consent mechanism may expose the organization to privacy compliance risks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party scripts like Snowplow Analytics and cloudfront CDN is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. Incident response and security policies are not publicly documented, which is a gap for organizational security maturity.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and update privacy policy to reflect GDPR and other privacy regulations compliance.
  3. Publish a security or incident response policy page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
  5. Consider adding social media links and enhancing digital engagement to improve community outreach and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the MultiScreenSite CMS platform, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 3.7.0 and skrollr for parallax effects. It uses Snowplow Analytics for visitor tracking and includes a service worker for offline support and performance improvements. The site loads fonts from Google Fonts and images from a CDN, optimizing load times. The HTML structure is valid and includes ARIA roles for accessibility. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. However, the site lacks visible security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, which are important for compliance and security. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification but does not impact the technical infrastructure quality. Overall, the technical implementation is solid with room for security and privacy enhancements.
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.
