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

ÖH Uni Graz is the official student interest representation organization for the Karl-Franzens-Universität in Graz, Austria. The website serves as a communication platform to inform students about their rights, services offered, and organizational news. It provides support in academic, legal, and social matters, positioning itself as a trusted intermediary between students, the university, and political bodies. The site targets university students and offers resources such as legal advice, social support, and event information. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Avada theme, incorporating modern web technologies like jQuery and Bootstrap. It integrates Google Analytics with IP anonymization for user tracking. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with a clear navigation structure and recent content updates, reflecting a moderate to good level of digital maturity. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with a good SSL configuration but lacks several security headers and formal security policies. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are published. Privacy compliance is limited, with no visible privacy or cookie policies or consent mechanisms, which could be improved to meet GDPR standards. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security practices to strengthen compliance and user trust. The domain registration data aligns well with the website's claims, supporting its legitimacy.

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. 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
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

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

ÖH Uni Graz holds a strong market position as the recognized student representative body at the University of Graz. Its non-profit business model focuses on advocacy, support services, and information dissemination to students. The organization leverages official university affiliation and social media presence to engage its target audience. Revenue streams are likely based on university funding and student fees, typical for such entities. The website reflects a stable operational structure with active communication channels and recent updates, indicating ongoing engagement and growth potential within the student community.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security posture. HTTPS is properly implemented, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No public security policy or incident response information is available, which limits transparency and preparedness. The use of Google Analytics with IP anonymization is a positive privacy measure. There are no visible signs of vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Enhancing security headers, publishing security policies, and implementing cookie consent would improve the overall security maturity.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure essential security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options).
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  3. Add a cookie consent mechanism to inform and obtain user consent for tracking.
  4. Create and publish a security policy and incident response contact information.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a widely used CMS (WordPress) with a popular commercial theme (Avada), indicating a standard and maintainable infrastructure. It uses common libraries such as jQuery and Bootstrap, supporting responsive and accessible design. Google Analytics is integrated for traffic analysis. Performance is moderate, with no critical issues detected in the HTML structure. Accessibility features like skip links and ARIA labels are present, enhancing usability. The site could benefit from performance optimization and enhanced security configurations to reduce technical risks.
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.
