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.

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.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The organization holds a clear market position as the official student body for FH JOANNEUM, providing essential services and support to students. Its business model is non-profit and focused on advocacy and service provision rather than commercial revenue. The website reflects a stable presence since at least 2012, indicating maturity and consistent operation. Partnerships or subsidiaries are not evident, and the organization maintains direct contact channels and social media presence to engage its audience. The use of standard web technologies and plugins suggests a practical approach to digital presence without heavy investment in custom solutions.
Security posture
The website enforces HTTPS and uses Google Analytics with anonymized IPs, indicating attention to privacy. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security posture. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could be improved. Forms do not appear to have CAPTCHA or advanced bot protection, potentially exposing them to spam or abuse. The site does not display cookie consent banners, which is a GDPR compliance gap. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could benefit from enhancements in headers, consent mechanisms, and incident response transparency.
Recommendations
Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to improve security posture.
Add a cookie consent banner and mechanism to comply fully with GDPR requirements.
Publish a security.txt file and vulnerability disclosure policy to enhance transparency and incident response readiness.
Enhance form security by integrating CAPTCHA or similar anti-bot measures.
Regularly review and update privacy policies and ensure data retention policies are clearly communicated.

Technical notes
Notes
The website uses a standard WordPress CMS with Bootstrap 3.3.6 and jQuery 1.7.2, which are somewhat dated but still functional. Google Analytics and Google Custom Search Engine are integrated for analytics and search functionality. The site loads external resources from trusted CDNs such as maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com and fonts.googleapis.com. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts to improve page speed. Mobile optimization is basic but present. Accessibility features are minimal but some are implemented. The site lacks modern security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, which are technical debts that should be addressed to improve compliance and security.
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.
