Security score

Risk levelMedium

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

The website www.standaard.be is currently inaccessible due to a Cloudflare Turnstile CAPTCHA security challenge page. This prevents access to any meaningful content, metadata, or business information. The domain WHOIS data is restricted and returns a 'NOT ALLOWED' status, providing no registrar, creation, expiry, or registrant details. The site is protected by Cloudflare's security infrastructure, indicating an intent to mitigate automated access or attacks but also limiting external analysis. Due to the lack of accessible content, no business description, contact information, or compliance policies are available for review. The technical infrastructure is limited to Cloudflare's security challenge with no visible CMS or analytics technologies. Security posture cannot be fully assessed but the presence of Cloudflare WAF is a positive indicator. Overall, the site is currently blocked from analysis and scores low on content quality, privacy compliance, and business credibility.

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

9 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

      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';…

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

No business intelligence data could be extracted due to the security challenge blocking access to the website content. No information about market positioning, business model, revenue streams, or partnerships is available. The domain WHOIS data is restricted, preventing verification of registrant details or domain age. The site appears to be a media or news-related domain based on the domain name but this cannot be confirmed from the current data.

Security posture

The website is protected by Cloudflare's Turnstile CAPTCHA, indicating a strong perimeter defense against automated threats and bots. However, no additional security headers or policies are visible due to the blocked content. The lack of accessible privacy and cookie policies suggests potential compliance gaps. WHOIS data is restricted, which limits trust verification. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected, but the inability to access the site prevents a full security assessment. Incident response and security contact information are not available.

Recommendations

  1. Work with Cloudflare to allow trusted scanners or partners to bypass the CAPTCHA for security assessments.
  2. Publish clear privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies accessible without security challenges.
  3. Provide visible contact information including security incident response contacts.
  4. Ensure WHOIS data is available or provide alternative trust signals to improve legitimacy perception.
  5. Implement security headers and document security posture publicly to enhance trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is currently served behind Cloudflare's security challenge platform using Turnstile CAPTCHA, which blocks automated access. No CMS or backend technologies are detectable from the challenge page. The hosting provider is Cloudflare, providing DDoS protection and bot mitigation. No analytics or advertising scripts are present beyond Cloudflare's own scripts. The page is minimalistic with inline CSS and no external style sheets or complex JavaScript frameworks. Performance and SEO cannot be evaluated due to lack of content. The site is not mobile optimized as the challenge page is basic and functional only.
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.
