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

7 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  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

      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

PSY-Care operates in the healthcare sector, specifically mental health services, targeting children, youth, and adults with psychological needs. The business model is service-oriented, funded primarily through health insurance contracts, excluding a few insurers. The company maintains partnerships with regional initiatives like IJZ Limburg and has recently been integrated under Lionarons GGZ, enhancing scale and operational efficiency. The website content and structure support client engagement and referral processes, with clear governance and quality certifications. The organization demonstrates a stable market position with a medium-sized operational scale and a focus on client satisfaction and quality assurance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and DNSSEC enabled, reducing risks of interception and DNS spoofing. Cookie consent is implemented with opt-in/out options, supporting GDPR compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML or scripts. However, explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not evident, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, indicating an area for improvement. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from additional hardening and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and libraries to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using the Elementor page builder and Astra theme, which supports responsive design and good SEO practices. The tech stack includes jQuery and several plugins for cookie management and popups. Hosting is provided by team.blue nl B.V., a reputable registrar and hosting provider. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in loading speed and resource management. The site includes structured navigation and semantic HTML elements, but accessibility features are basic. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data. Technical risks are low but depend on maintaining plugin updates and security best practices.
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.
