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

5 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 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';…
  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

    • 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

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 parish holds a stable position within the local religious community, offering a variety of services including worship, community events, youth programs, and facility rentals. Its business model is non-profit and community-focused, relying on donations and volunteer engagement. The website reflects a clear organizational structure and partnership with the broader Roman Catholic Church in Basel-Stadt. The presence of a Spotify podcast and Vimeo videos indicates engagement with digital media to reach parishioners. The site’s external links to related church domains and services suggest a well-integrated partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators include active event promotion and community outreach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of advanced security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and lack of a cookie consent mechanism indicate room for improvement. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could be a gap in security culture. The site uses standard, well-maintained libraries, reducing risk of known vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a non-profit community site but could benefit from enhanced policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to improve privacy compliance.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and readiness.
  4. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Regularly audit third-party libraries and update to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the webIQ 6.1 framework, leveraging popular JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Bootstrap, and Modernizr for responsive design and enhanced user experience. The use of plugins like FancyBox, Slick Carousel, and Masonry indicates a focus on interactive and visually appealing content presentation. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected, and mobile optimization is good. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with ARIA roles and better semantic markup. Hosting details are not explicitly identified but the site uses HTTPS with a good SSL configuration.
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.
