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

Our Community Pty Ltd is an established Australian social enterprise focused on providing practical training, leadership, and technology solutions to the not-for-profit and grantmaking sectors. The company operates multiple subsidiary enterprises that offer grantmaking software, governance support, community building resources, and fundraising platforms. Their market position is strong within the Australian non-profit ecosystem, serving a diverse audience including government agencies, philanthropic organizations, businesses, and individuals committed to community development. Technically, the website employs a modern technology stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, FontAwesome, Google reCAPTCHA, and New Relic monitoring. The site is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and uses HTTPS with good security practices, although some security headers are not explicitly detected. The presence of privacy and terms policies, along with clear contact information, indicates a mature digital presence. Security posture is solid with encrypted communications and form protections, but could be improved by adding explicit security headers and publishing incident response policies. The WHOIS data is incomplete, which slightly reduces domain trustworthiness, but the overall legitimacy is supported by consistent business information and external references. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with its mission. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing vulnerability disclosure information, and improving accessibility compliance to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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. 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 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

  3. 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

Our Community operates as a social enterprise with a clear focus on the non-profit sector, providing a suite of services including grantmaking intelligence, governance training, and community engagement tools. Their business model leverages software platforms, training programs, and publications to generate revenue while supporting community organizations. The company has a diversified portfolio of subsidiaries that extend its reach and service offerings. Partnerships with government, philanthropic, and corporate grantmakers enhance its ecosystem. The target customers are primarily Australian not-for-profits, social enterprises, and community builders. Growth indicators include a broad network of enterprises and active engagement through newsletters and events.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms from abuse. No sensitive data is exposed in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents a gap. There is no visible security or incident response policy, and no security.txt file for vulnerability disclosure. Compliance with GDPR is indicated via privacy policy, but no explicit data protection officer contact is found. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by adopting additional best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a dedicated security or incident response policy page with contact details for reporting vulnerabilities.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to meet WCAG standards for broader compliance.
  5. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of well-known front-end technologies such as jQuery, Bootstrap, and FontAwesome, ensuring responsive design and consistent UI components. Google reCAPTCHA integration protects forms from spam and abuse. New Relic Browser monitoring is used for performance and error tracking. Google Tag Manager facilitates analytics and marketing tags. The site loads moderately fast and is mobile optimized. There is no detected CMS, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not explicit. Technical debt appears low, but updating to latest library versions and adding modern security headers would improve robustness.
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.
