Risk levelHigh

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

Paideia Associação Cultural is a small Brazilian non-profit cultural association specializing in theater arts and international youth cultural exchanges. The organization operates primarily through theatrical productions, educational courses, and international collaborations with partners in Germany, Japan, and South Africa. Their website reflects a focused mission on youth engagement and cultural dialogue through the arts. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with common plugins and hosted on HostGator Brazil, showing moderate performance and good mobile optimization. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and no visible vulnerabilities, but lacks advanced security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies. Contact is available via a contact form, but no direct emails or phone numbers are published on the homepage. Overall, the site is professional and content-rich but could improve privacy compliance and security best practices.

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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
  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

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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';…
  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

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 · found on this site
  • 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 association holds a niche position in the cultural and theatrical non-profit sector, leveraging international partnerships to enhance its offerings and reach. Its business model centers on cultural exchange, education, and theatrical productions targeting youth and children. The organization benefits from collaborations with reputable international theater companies and artists, which strengthens its credibility and market presence. Revenue streams likely include grants, donations, and course fees. The website content and structure support its mission but lack explicit trust signals such as certifications or testimonials. Growth potential exists through expanded digital presence and formalized compliance frameworks.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is properly configured, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure policy is present, limiting transparency and incident response readiness. The use of WordPress and popular plugins necessitates regular updates to mitigate vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or signs of malware were detected. Privacy compliance is weak, with no visible privacy or cookie policies, which may pose regulatory risks especially under GDPR. Incident response contact channels are not provided, indicating limited preparedness for security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve incident response transparency.
  4. Provide clear incident response contact information, including security or abuse email addresses.
  5. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to maintain security and performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.1, using plugins such as Contact Form 7, Ultimate Posts Widget, and Newsletter. It loads Google Fonts and jQuery libraries, indicating a standard modern web stack. Hosting is provided by HostGator Brazil, as indicated by the name servers. The site uses responsive design and includes accessibility features such as skip links and screen reader text, though accessibility is basic. SEO optimization is basic with meta tags and alternate hreflang links for multilingual support. Performance is moderate, with no explicit performance optimization scripts detected. The site lacks advanced frameworks but is stable and functional for its purpose.
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.
