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

OrpheusPDX is a small non-profit opera company based in Portland, Oregon, focused on delivering intimate opera performances and engaging the local community. The organization offers seasonal opera productions, subscription services, and opportunities for donations and volunteering. Their market position is that of a niche performing arts entity serving opera enthusiasts and the Portland arts community. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Select2, and Google Analytics integrations. The site is mobile optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and professional design. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protections in place, but lacks DNSSEC and security headers. Privacy compliance is basic, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism or GDPR indicators. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professionally maintained, though improvements in security and privacy compliance are recommended.

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. 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

  2. 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 company operates as a non-profit in the performing arts sector, focusing on opera productions and community engagement. Revenue streams likely include ticket sales, subscriptions, donations, and grants. The use of a third-party ticketing service (arts-people.com) indicates reliance on external platforms for sales and donations. The target audience includes local opera patrons and supporters of the arts. The organization maintains active social media channels on Facebook and Instagram, enhancing community outreach. The domain registration is privacy protected, common for small non-profits, and the domain age aligns with the organization's founding date. No suspicious patterns or red flags were detected in business operations or online presence.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and has domain status protections to prevent unauthorized transfers or updates. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS were detected, which could improve security posture. The site uses multiple tracking and marketing scripts including Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel but lacks a cookie consent mechanism, which may pose privacy compliance risks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, limiting transparency in security practices. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could benefit from enhanced header configurations, privacy controls, and explicit security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and inform users about tracking.
  4. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security page to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and improve compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern front-end stack including jQuery, Select2 for enhanced UI components, and Slick Carousel for sliders. It uses Google Fonts via Typekit and Google Analytics for traffic monitoring. Hosting DNS is managed by Hover, with domain registration privacy protection enabled. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and preconnect hints for fonts and CDNs. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design and accessible navigation. SEO is supported by structured data (JSON-LD) and meta tags. However, the absence of security headers and cookie consent mechanisms indicates areas for technical improvement. The site does not appear to use a Web Application Firewall or advanced security plugins based on the HTML content.
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.
