Security score

67/100

Risk levelMedium

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

Partos is a Dutch non-profit branch association representing over 100 organizations involved in international cooperation. The website serves as an informational and membership platform, providing resources and advocacy for its members. The organization targets Dutch development organizations and stakeholders interested in international collaboration. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using a child theme of FoundationPress, with integrations such as Gravity Forms for data collection and Cookiebot for cookie consent management. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are used for analytics and tracking, with appropriate consent mechanisms in place. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and some security best practices observed, though there is room for improvement in implementing security headers and publishing security policies. The site is professional, well-branded, and trustworthy, with no signs of malicious or suspicious activity. However, explicit privacy and terms of service pages were not found in the provided content, which could be improved for compliance and transparency.

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 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';…
  2. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Partos holds a strong market position as the leading Dutch association for international cooperation organizations. Its business model is membership-based, focusing on advocacy, sector support, and representation. The website reflects a medium-sized organization with a clear focus on the non-profit sector. The use of modern web technologies and consent management tools indicates a commitment to digital maturity and privacy compliance. The organization appears to have a stable partnership ecosystem, though no explicit partner domains were identified in the content. The absence of direct contact information on the homepage suggests that contact details may be located elsewhere or require further exploration.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent is managed via Cookiebot, which is a positive indicator for GDPR compliance. The presence of a security-related cookie from a WordPress security plugin suggests active security measures. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options is a gap. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is published, which limits transparency in security incident handling. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be enhanced with additional policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a clear privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the homepage to improve compliance and user trust.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Provide explicit incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses to enhance transparency.
  5. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and plugins to ensure they are up to date and free from vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using the FoundationPress child theme, indicating a modern and flexible infrastructure. It leverages Gravity Forms for form handling and Cookiebot for cookie consent management, reflecting compliance with privacy regulations. The site loads external resources from reputable CDNs and uses Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. Performance is moderate with some optimization opportunities. Mobile responsiveness and SEO optimization are good, supported by proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format. Accessibility is basic and could be improved to meet higher standards. Hosting provider details are not explicitly available from the HTML content. Overall, the technical implementation is solid with room for enhancements in security and accessibility.
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.
