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.
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
High
No SPF record found
SPF helps prevent email spoofing
What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"
This scan found 17 issues across 6 checks. Monitoring re-runs those checks daily, emails you when something material changes and records each fix, so you can show progress.

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 business operates in the healthcare and education sectors, focusing on orthopedic patient education. Its market position is niche but important, serving patients and learners with specialized content. The business model centers on providing educational content through a digital platform, likely monetized via subscriptions or institutional partnerships. The presence of related domains for clinicians and doctor finding suggests a partnership ecosystem that enhances service offerings. The company demonstrates moderate size and professionalism, with consistent branding and trust indicators such as HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms.
Security posture
The website exhibits a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and privacy-conscious analytics configurations like IP anonymization. Cookie consent is managed via OneTrust, indicating GDPR awareness. However, the absence of security headers and a public security policy or incident response contact reduces the overall security maturity. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The site would benefit from publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy and implementing additional security headers to enhance protection.
Recommendations
Implement comprehensive security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
Publish a clear privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the main navigation or footer.
Add a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure page to facilitate responsible reporting.
Provide visible and verified contact information including support and security contacts.
Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure compliance and minimize privacy risks.

Technical notes
Notes
The site uses a modern JavaScript-based LMS platform (Intellum) with integrations for analytics and user behavior tracking. Hosting is partly on Amazon S3 for static assets, ensuring scalability. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph images. The technical implementation is solid but could be improved by adding security headers and optimizing third-party script loading to enhance performance 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.
