Security score

48/100

Risk levelHigh

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

The website represents the Society of the Catholic Apostolate (Pallotini), a religious non-profit organization founded in 1835. It provides information about the organization's mission, global presence, and apostolic activities including parish work, education, healthcare, and social outreach. The site targets Catholic faithful and those interested in religious apostolate work. Technically, the site uses a custom PHP-based CMS with legacy JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.4.1 and basic CSS styling. Hosting is likely provided by Active24, consistent with the domain registrar data. Security posture is moderate with no visible HTTPS confirmation or security headers in the provided data, and outdated JavaScript libraries present potential vulnerabilities. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, indicating compliance gaps with GDPR. Contact information is clearly provided with physical addresses, phone numbers, and a company email. Overall, the site is functional and informative but would benefit from technical modernization and improved security and privacy 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

9 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"

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

Pallotini is a well-established international Catholic religious society with over 2,300 members operating in 41 countries. Its business model is non-profit and mission-driven, focusing on religious and social services. The organization has a strong market position within the religious community, supported by partnerships with related religious sites and publications. Revenue streams are likely donation and church funding based. The target audience includes Catholic communities and individuals interested in apostolic work. The website reflects moderate digital maturity with basic technical infrastructure and limited marketing or analytics tools. The partnership ecosystem is robust within religious circles but lacks commercial or technological partnerships.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is basic to moderate. The use of outdated JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.4.1 introduces potential vulnerabilities. No security headers were detected, and there is no visible evidence of HTTPS enforcement in the provided data, which is a critical security gap. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates non-compliance with GDPR requirements. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, limiting readiness for security events. The site does not collect user data on this page, reducing immediate risk but also limiting engagement capabilities. Overall, the security culture appears minimal and would benefit from formal policies and technical improvements.

Recommendations

  1. Upgrade all JavaScript libraries to current secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement HTTPS site-wide with strict transport security (HSTS) to ensure encrypted communications.
  3. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements and consent mechanisms.
  4. Deploy security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to harden the site.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact channels to improve security transparency and readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom PHP-based CMS with legacy front-end technologies including jQuery 1.4.1 and Fancybox 1.3.0. The HTML structure is basic but functional, with CSS stylesheets for layout and calendar features. External scripts are loaded from code.jquery.com and local JS files. The site lacks modern frameworks or platforms and shows no evidence of mobile-first design or advanced accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with no explicit optimization detected. SEO is basic with meta tags for keywords and description but no Open Graph or structured data markup. Hosting and domain registration are consistent with a Czech provider, Active24. Technical debt is present due to outdated libraries and missing security best practices, representing modernization opportunities and risks.
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.
