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

BrAIn is a Slovak non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the development of young talents in artificial intelligence and intelligent technologies. Founded in 2023 by researchers from the Kempelen Institute of Intelligent Technologies, it aims to prepare gifted students for professional careers in technology and innovation. The organization facilitates internships, educational courses, and networking opportunities with experts and companies, funded partly through 2% tax donations and other contributions. The website reflects a well-structured and professional digital presence with detailed profiles of supported talents and supporters, emphasizing transparency and community engagement. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern JavaScript libraries like jQuery and optimized using Autoptimize. It is hosted on a Slovak hosting provider with DNSSEC enabled and uses HTTPS, ensuring secure communication. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly but lacks some advanced security headers and privacy compliance features such as privacy and cookie policies. From a security perspective, the site benefits from HTTPS and DNSSEC but misses critical security headers and formal privacy compliance mechanisms. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided. The WHOIS data is consistent with the organization's claims, showing a recently registered domain appropriate for a new non-profit. No suspicious patterns or privacy protection are used, enhancing trustworthiness. Overall, BrAIn's website demonstrates a strong business credibility and content quality with moderate technical implementation and security posture. The main gaps lie in privacy compliance and security best practices, which should be addressed to improve trust and regulatory adherence.

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

10 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.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

  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 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

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

Business profile

BrAIn operates as a small-sized non-profit entity focused on education and technology sectors, specifically AI talent development in Slovakia. Its business model relies on donations, including 2% tax contributions, and partnerships with research institutes and technology companies. The organization leverages a network of academic and industry experts to provide internships, courses, and events that bridge the gap between academia and industry. The presence of detailed talent profiles and supporter testimonials indicates a transparent and community-driven approach. The partnership with Kempelen Institute and local tech companies positions BrAIn well within the Slovak AI ecosystem, fostering innovation and talent retention. Growth indicators include active engagement with students and industry, but the newness of the domain and organization suggests early-stage development. Revenue streams are likely limited to donations and grants, with potential for expansion through partnerships and sponsored programs.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate security maturity level. It uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and DNSSEC for domain security, which are strong foundational measures. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces protection against common web attacks like clickjacking and MIME sniffing. No visible vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. The site does not expose sensitive data or use vulnerable libraries based on the analysis. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies, which could pose regulatory risks under GDPR. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-commercial informational site but requires enhancements to meet best practices and compliance standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add essential security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against web vulnerabilities.
  3. Establish and display incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Conduct regular security audits of third-party plugins and scripts to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by providing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.3, utilizing jQuery and jQuery UI libraries, optimized with Autoptimize for CSS and JS aggregation. Hosting is provided by Websupport, indicated by the nameservers. The site uses modern HTML5 and meta tags for SEO and social media integration, including Open Graph and Twitter Card metadata. Performance is moderate with deferred script loading and image optimization. Mobile responsiveness is good, supported by viewport meta tags and responsive CSS. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with ARIA roles and better semantic markup. The site lacks advanced security headers and privacy compliance features. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid for a small non-profit but has room for modernization and security hardening.
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.
