Priority findings

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

The platform occupies a niche in the Spanish political transparency and civic tech sector, leveraging open data and community engagement to empower public oversight of parliamentary processes. Its business model is non-profit and community-driven, with open source code and API access fostering transparency and collaboration. The target audience includes politically engaged citizens, NGOs, journalists, and academics. The project benefits from a parent organization, Political Watch, and partnerships with related initiatives like Parlamento 2030. The website's consistent branding, social media presence, and clear content contribute to a strong market position within its domain.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data. However, it lacks explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, which are recommended for transparency and readiness. No security headers were detected in the provided data, suggesting room for improvement in HTTP header security controls. The absence of known vulnerable libraries and secure form handling are positive indicators. Overall, the security risk is low but could be further mitigated by adopting best practices and publishing formal security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page.
  2. Add security HTTP headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Create and host a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity.
  5. Consider adding verified physical contact information or phone numbers to increase trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern front-end technologies including Vue.js and Vite, ensuring modularity and efficient loading. The use of ES modules and SVG graphics contributes to a clean and scalable design. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No CMS or backend platform was detected, indicating a likely static or JAMstack architecture. Performance is moderate with some loading spinners indicating asynchronous data fetching. Technical debt appears low, but adding security headers and formal policies would improve the overall technical maturity.
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.
