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

6 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 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. 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 384-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

The website occupies a trusted niche within the Dutch healthcare and non-profit sector, focusing on sex worker health and rights. Supported by Soa Aids Nederland and allied organizations like Sekswerk Alliantie Destigmatisering, it leverages partnerships such as Ugly Mugs NL for client safety. The business model is informational and advocacy-driven, with no commercial advertising detected. The target audience is clearly defined, and the content quality is excellent, supporting strong market positioning as a key resource. The use of modern CMS and analytics tools indicates a commitment to digital maturity. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a controlled communication channel via forms, aligning with privacy and security best practices.

Security posture

The site exhibits a strong security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and secure form handling. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The use of Matomo analytics reflects privacy-conscious tracking. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security governance. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file was found, which could be improved to enhance security culture and incident readiness. Overall, the site is secure for its informational purpose but could benefit from enhanced security communication and disclosure practices.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and user trust.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Provide explicit contact channels for security incidents, such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Enhance business contact information with verified emails or phone numbers to improve credibility and user support.
  5. Continue maintaining and updating security headers and privacy compliance measures to align with evolving standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10, a modern and secure CMS platform, ensuring a solid technical foundation. It integrates Matomo analytics for privacy-respecting user tracking and ReadSpeaker for accessibility. The site uses SVG icons and responsive design techniques for good mobile optimization. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of analytics scripts. SEO is well addressed through meta tags and Open Graph data. No technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected. Hosting provider details are not explicitly available. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and accessible user experience with room for performance optimization.
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.
