The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) is a U.S. government agency under the Department of Justice focused on preventing and responding to youth delinquency and victimization. The website serves as a comprehensive resource hub offering funding opportunities, research, publications, training, and program information to government entities, community organizations, and the public. It holds a strong market position as an authoritative federal resource in juvenile justice. Technically, the site is built on Drupal 10 with modern web technologies and adheres to accessibility and mobile optimization standards, providing a professional and user-friendly experience.

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

3 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 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

    • 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

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

OJJDP operates as a government entity providing essential services in juvenile justice through funding, research, and program support. Its business model is non-commercial, focusing on public service and policy implementation. The agency targets government agencies, juvenile justice professionals, and community stakeholders. The website reflects a mature digital presence with integration of analytics and search tools, and active social media engagement. Partnerships with other DOJ bureaus and government sites enhance its ecosystem. The lack of commercial elements and strong government affiliation reduce typical business risks, positioning OJJDP as a stable and authoritative institution.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, no exposed sensitive data, and use of secure third-party services. However, the absence of key security headers and a formal vulnerability disclosure policy are gaps that could be addressed to enhance security maturity. No incident response contacts or security policies are explicitly published, which is common in government sites but could improve transparency and readiness. The site does not show signs of vulnerabilities or malicious activity, supporting a high trust level.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Add a clear cookie consent banner to comply fully with GDPR and privacy best practices.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Provide explicit incident response contact information for security issues.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and analytics tools to mitigate risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The site uses Drupal 10 CMS with USWDS for design consistency and accessibility. Integration with Google Analytics, Tag Manager, and Custom Search Engine supports data-driven insights and user experience. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, adhering to federal standards. No hosting provider details were found, but the use of .gov domain implies government-managed infrastructure. Technical debt appears low, but adding security headers and cookie consent mechanisms would modernize compliance posture.
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.
