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

Norwegian People's Aid is a well-established non-profit humanitarian organization focused on mine action, disarmament, development cooperation, and humanitarian relief. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence with a clear mission aligned with the labour movement's humanitarian solidarity efforts. The organization targets a broad audience including humanitarian supporters and the general public. Technically, the website employs modern technologies such as Google Tag Manager, Cookiebot for consent management, and Cloudflare for CDN and security, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized and uses HTTPS with strong SSL configuration, enhancing user trust and security. However, the absence of visible privacy policy and terms of service pages, as well as lack of explicit contact information, slightly detracts from the overall compliance and user trust. The WHOIS data is unavailable due to privacy protection or query failure, which is common for organizations seeking to protect registrant privacy. Overall, the website demonstrates a good security posture with room for improvement in transparency and compliance documentation.

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 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. 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 organization operates in the non-profit humanitarian sector with a focus on mine clearance, humanitarian disarmament, and refugee support. Its business model is based on solidarity and aid, likely funded by donations and partnerships. The website's integration with multiple social media platforms and use of advanced analytics tools like Hotjar and Matomo suggest a data-driven approach to outreach and engagement. The partnership with folkehjelp.no indicates a collaborative ecosystem within the Norwegian humanitarian community. The organization's market position is strong within its sector, supported by consistent branding and a comprehensive service offering. Growth opportunities may lie in enhancing transparency and expanding digital engagement through improved contact channels and policy disclosures.

Security posture

The website benefits from HTTPS encryption and Cloudflare protection, which provide a solid foundation against common web threats. The use of Cookiebot ensures compliance with cookie consent regulations, although the absence of a detailed privacy policy page is a compliance gap. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Security headers are not explicitly visible and should be reviewed for completeness. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits the organization's ability to communicate security practices and respond to incidents effectively. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing comprehensive security and privacy documentation and implementing additional HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing data processing and GDPR compliance.
  2. Add explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security inquiries.
  4. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to maintain a strong security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including Craft CMS (inferred from session cookie), Google Tag Manager, and Cookiebot for consent management. Hosting and CDN services are provided by Cloudflare, which also adds security layers. The site loads Google Fonts and integrates multiple third-party analytics and marketing tools such as Hotjar, Matomo, Monsido, and VWO. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. The HTML structure is valid and SEO optimized with appropriate meta tags and Open Graph data. However, the site lacks some advanced accessibility features and explicit security headers, which are recommended for further technical maturity.
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.
