Security score

Risk levelMedium

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

The National Women's Health Network website currently serves as an informational page announcing the organization's closure as of December 31, 2024. The organization was a non-profit advocacy group focused on women's health and reproductive justice for over 50 years. The website content is minimal, with no active services or donation capabilities. Technically, the site is simple, with no detected CMS or advanced frameworks, and uses Cloudflare DNS without DNSSEC enabled. Security posture is weak due to lack of visible HTTPS enforcement and security headers. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, and no contact or incident response information is provided. Overall, the site is stable but basic, reflecting its closure status.

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

8 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 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

    • 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

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.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention nwhn.org, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for nwhn.org right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

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 operated in the non-profit sector, focusing on women's health advocacy and reproductive justice. It had a long-standing market presence but has ceased operations. The business model was centered on advocacy and support rather than commercial revenue. No partnerships or subsidiaries are indicated. The domain age and registration details align with the organization's history, supporting credibility. The lack of active content and contact details suggests the site is now primarily archival.

Security posture

Security maturity is low, with no evidence of HTTPS enforcement or security headers in the provided data. DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended security enhancement. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response policies are visible. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps, particularly with GDPR. The site does not collect user data or have forms, reducing attack surface but also limiting user engagement. Overall, the security posture is minimal and could be improved if the site were to be reactivated.

Recommendations

  1. Enable HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and enforce HTTPS redirects.
  2. Implement DNSSEC to protect domain name resolution integrity.
  3. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve compliance and user trust.
  4. Publish contact information including security incident response contacts.
  5. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is a static HTML page with minimal styling and no detected JavaScript or external libraries. It uses Cloudflare DNS but lacks DNSSEC. No CMS or frameworks are detected. The site appears to be hosted on a standard web hosting environment with no advanced performance or accessibility features. SEO optimization is poor due to lack of meta tags and structured data. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic, reflecting the minimal content and simple layout.
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.
