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

The Österreichischer Gehörlosenbund (ÖGLB) is a well-established non-profit organization dedicated to serving Austria's deaf community since 1913. The website provides comprehensive information about the organization's history, services, advocacy efforts, and projects. It targets the Austrian deaf community and stakeholders interested in deaf rights and services. The site features multimedia content, including videos and newsletters, enhancing engagement and accessibility. The organization maintains a clear market position as a key advocate and service provider for the deaf community in Austria. Technically, the website is built on a modern WordPress platform using Elementor and WooCommerce, supported by performance optimization tools like WP Rocket. The site is mobile-optimized and includes SEO best practices, ensuring good user experience and discoverability. The use of multiple plugins for multilingual support, email marketing, and social media integration indicates a mature digital infrastructure. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and implements cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR. While some security headers could be improved, no critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The WHOIS data aligns with the organization's claims, reinforcing legitimacy. However, the absence of explicit security policies or incident response contacts suggests room for improvement in transparency and preparedness. Overall, the website presents a professional, trustworthy, and user-friendly platform for its community. Strategic enhancements in security headers and publishing a security policy would further strengthen its posture. The organization is recommended to maintain regular updates and consider adding terms of service and incident response information to enhance compliance and user trust.

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

7 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  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

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

ÖGLB operates as a specialized non-profit focused on advocacy, education, and services for the deaf community in Austria. Its competitive advantage lies in its long-standing history and comprehensive service offerings, including barrier-free service centers, relay services, and media platforms like Gebärdenwelt.tv. Revenue streams likely include donations, grants, and sales via the integrated WooCommerce shop. The target customers are deaf individuals, their families, and allies. The organization demonstrates growth through active projects, events, and digital engagement. Partnerships with services like relayservice.at enhance its ecosystem. The website's structured content and multimedia use indicate a strategic approach to outreach and community building.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security baseline with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented. The use of nonce attributes in scripts and monitoring for CSP violations indicates awareness of security best practices. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as X-Frame-Options and Referrer-Policy is a gap. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact reduces transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved by adding missing headers and formalizing security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce a comprehensive Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate XSS risks.
  2. Add security headers including X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy for enhanced protection.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and user trust.
  4. Regularly audit and update all plugins and themes to minimize vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding a terms of service page to clarify user rights and obligations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.2 with Elementor page builder and WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality. It uses a variety of plugins for multilingual support, email marketing, and UI enhancements. Performance optimization is handled by WP Rocket, including lazy loading and script deferring. The site loads Google Fonts and uses jQuery and other JavaScript libraries. The technical implementation is modern and follows best practices for CMS-based sites. Mobile responsiveness and SEO optimizations are well addressed. Hosting provider details are not explicit but the site uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and accessibility features.
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.
