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

The Fondation de l’Œuvre Notre-Dame is a historic non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation, restoration, and promotion of the Strasbourg Cathedral. The website serves as an educational and informational platform, offering rich multimedia content, historical insights, and visitor information. It also supports fundraising through a boutique and patronage programs. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with WooCommerce, employing modern web technologies and good SEO and accessibility practices. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and reCAPTCHA integration, though some security headers could be improved. Privacy compliance is partial, with cookie consent implemented but no explicit privacy policy page found. WHOIS data is unavailable, limiting domain trust verification, but the professional presentation and content quality support legitimacy. Overall, the site is well-positioned as a trusted cultural heritage resource with room for improvement in transparency and security hardening.

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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  4. 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 foundation operates in the cultural heritage sector, targeting general audiences interested in history, architecture, and cathedral preservation. Its business model is non-profit, relying on donations, patronage, and merchandise sales. The website reflects a strong market position as a recognized institution with UNESCO ties. The presence of a blog, educational resources, and a boutique indicates diversified engagement and revenue streams. Partnerships with the city of Strasbourg and the lumen portal enhance its ecosystem. Growth indicators include recent content updates and active visitor engagement features. Strategic observations suggest focusing on enhancing digital transparency and expanding contact channels to improve stakeholder trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms, and a cookie consent mechanism with high privacy settings. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of visible incident response contacts or security policies limits the site's readiness for security incidents. Compliance with GDPR is partial due to missing privacy policy details. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by implementing recommended headers, publishing security policies, and improving incident response visibility.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing GDPR compliance and data handling practices.
  2. Implement and verify security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Enhance visibility of incident response contacts and security policies to improve trust and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit and update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Clarify WHOIS domain registration details to improve domain legitimacy and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality. It uses jQuery, Splide.js for carousels, Google reCAPTCHA v3 for bot protection, and Tarteaucitron.js for cookie consent management. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility and SEO practices, including meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is moderate, with multimedia content and videos integrated. Hosting provider details are not explicit. Technical risks include potential plugin vulnerabilities and missing security headers. Opportunities exist to modernize security configurations and improve privacy transparency.
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.
