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

RH-ISAC is a specialized cyber intelligence community focused on the retail and hospitality sectors, providing a collaborative platform for cybersecurity professionals to share threat intelligence, conduct benchmarking, and access education and training. The website presents a professional and well-structured digital presence, leveraging WordPress and Elementor with modern web technologies and analytics tools. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enabled, domain locking, and anti-spam measures, though DNSSEC is not enabled and no explicit security policy or incident response information is published. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with a cookie consent mechanism but lacks a visible privacy policy or terms of service. Overall, the site is credible and trustworthy, serving a medium-sized community of major brand members.

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

3 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

  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 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';…

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.

Breach exposure

Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention rhisac.org, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for rhisac.org right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

RH-ISAC operates a membership-based model targeting cybersecurity teams in retail and hospitality industries. It offers key services such as real-time intelligence sharing, threat reports, educational events, and benchmarking studies. The organization has a strong market position evidenced by the inclusion of major global brands as members. The website supports marketing and engagement through events and member benefits, with a clear focus on community growth and sector resiliency. The partnership ecosystem includes a dedicated SSO domain and integrations with analytics and marketing platforms. The business demonstrates maturity with a domain age consistent with its founding date and no suspicious registration patterns.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a good SSL configuration and domain locking via multiple EPP statuses, enhancing domain security. Anti-spam and bot detection plugins are active, and cookie consent is managed via a reputable provider. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended best practice for DNS security. No explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are published, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from additional published policies and DNS security enhancements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS integrity and security.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the homepage.
  3. Add a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Continue to monitor and update third-party libraries and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with Elementor page builder, using modern front-end technologies including Bootstrap, jQuery, and Font Awesome. It integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Adobe DTM, and LinkedIn Insight. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses cookie consent management via iubenda. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. Hosting provider is not explicitly identified but domain registrar is GoDaddy.com, LLC. The technical stack is mature and well maintained, though enabling DNSSEC and improving accessibility features could enhance the technical robustness.
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.
