Stand For Ukraine is a non-profit aggregator platform founded in 2022 that consolidates verified Ukrainian aid organizations to facilitate donations supporting military, humanitarian, medical, refugee, and press efforts amid the Russian invasion. The website serves a global audience of donors and supporters, providing multilingual access and direct links to trusted organizations with legal registration numbers. Technically, the site is built on modern frameworks such as Next.js and React, hosted via Cloudflare, and optimized for mobile and SEO, delivering a fast and accessible user experience. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and domain transfer protections, though improvements are needed in DNSSEC adoption and security headers.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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';…
  3. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

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 platform occupies a niche as a trusted information hub and donation aggregator for Ukrainian aid organizations, leveraging verified legal entities to build donor confidence. Its business model is non-profit and informational, relying on partnerships with multiple humanitarian, military, and medical organizations. The site demonstrates consistent branding and content quality, targeting international donors and activists. Its partnership ecosystem includes numerous Ukrainian and international NGOs, foundations, and official entities. Growth indicators include multilingual support and active social media presence. Revenue streams are indirect, primarily through facilitating donations to partner organizations. Strategic observations highlight the importance of enhancing privacy compliance and security transparency to maintain donor trust.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, domain transfer lock, and no visible sensitive data exposure. However, the lack of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents areas for improvement. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are published, which could hinder rapid mitigation of potential security issues. Privacy compliance gaps, including missing privacy and cookie policies, expose the site to regulatory risks. The site does not appear to have vulnerabilities or malicious content. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by adopting best practices in headers, DNS security, and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  4. Publish an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Enhance user privacy by implementing a cookie consent mechanism and minimizing tracking.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Next.js and React, leveraging server-side rendering and modern JavaScript frameworks for performance and SEO benefits. It uses Google Fonts for typography and Google Analytics for visitor tracking. Hosting is via Cloudflare DNS, providing reliable and fast content delivery. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good accessibility features. Performance is fast with deferred and async script loading. No CMS is detected, indicating a custom or framework-based build. Technical risks include lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers, which should be addressed to reduce attack surface. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern, scalable, and well-implemented.
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.
