The website serves as an informational and service platform for sports enthusiasts and affiliated clubs, providing event information, member services, and organizational support. The organization holds a strong market position as one of the top three sports federations in Austria. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including popular plugins for event management, cookie consent, and SEO optimization. The infrastructure is hosted by netcup GmbH, a reputable hosting provider. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and moderate performance, with comprehensive SEO and accessibility features. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS, uses security plugins like Wordfence, and implements a robust cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR.

However, there is no publicly available security policy or incident response information, which could be improved.

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

4 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. 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

  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality

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

SPORTUNION Österreich operates as a non-profit entity focused on sports promotion and club support within Austria. Its competitive advantage lies in its extensive membership and nationwide presence. The business model centers on providing organizational services, event coordination, and member engagement rather than commercial revenue generation. The target audience includes sports clubs, athletes, and sports enthusiasts. The organization leverages partnerships with various service providers for embedded media and analytics. Growth indicators include a large member base and active event calendar. The partnership ecosystem includes technology providers for website functionality and analytics. The organization maintains a professional online presence aligned with its mission and sector.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforcement, use of Wordfence for protection against attacks, and a comprehensive cookie consent framework ensuring GDPR compliance. Security headers are implemented to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No critical vulnerabilities or data exposures were identified. However, the absence of a published security policy and incident response information indicates room for improvement in transparency and preparedness. The site does not currently provide a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file, which could enhance trust and facilitate responsible vulnerability reporting. Overall, the security measures are appropriate for the organization's size and sector but could be enhanced with formal documentation and incident management processes.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Establish and publicize an incident response contact or page to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress, utilizing a range of plugins for event management, cookie consent, SEO, and media embedding. Hosting is provided by netcup GmbH, a reputable provider. The site uses modern web technologies including JavaScript libraries and CSS frameworks. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. Mobile responsiveness is good, ensuring usability across devices. SEO is well implemented with Yoast SEO plugin and proper meta tags. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The technical stack is current and supports the organization's operational needs effectively, though ongoing maintenance and security updates are essential to mitigate risks.
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.
