75/100

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

touchHAEMATOLOGY is a specialized digital platform delivering clinical updates, educational content, and journal articles focused on haematology. It targets healthcare professionals such as haematologists and nurses, providing free access to learning activities and conference coverage. The platform is positioned as a niche medical education provider with a consistent brand and good content quality. Technically, the website is built on WordPress, leveraging modern libraries and Google advertising and analytics tools. The site is mobile-optimized and performs moderately well. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and domain registrar consistency, but lacks some security headers and formal security policies. Privacy compliance is partial, with a cookie consent mechanism but missing privacy and terms of service pages. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but could improve compliance and security transparency.

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

2 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.

    • 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

  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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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 operates in the healthcare and education sectors, focusing on haematology. It uses a content publishing business model offering free educational resources to medical professionals. The platform benefits from partnerships with related domains such as touchhaematologyime.org and touchoncology.com, enhancing its content ecosystem. Revenue likely derives from advertising and sponsored content. The target audience is specialized medical professionals, indicating a focused market segment. The company is relatively new (founded 2022) but shows consistent branding and a growing digital presence. The lack of explicit company contact details and formal policies suggests room for maturity in business transparency.

Security posture

The site uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and is registered via Cloudflare, indicating a secure hosting environment. However, no DNSSEC is enabled, and no security headers were detected in the provided data, which are recommended best practices. The site uses third-party scripts including Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel, which require careful management to avoid privacy issues. There is no visible security or incident response policy, nor contact channels for security incidents. Cookie consent is implemented, supporting GDPR compliance to some extent. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced by adding security headers, enabling DNSSEC, and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve compliance and user trust.
  4. Add a security policy and incident response contact information to demonstrate security readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with common plugins and libraries such as jQuery, Select2, and Font Awesome. It uses Google Tag Manager and Google Publisher Tags for analytics and advertising, and Borlabs Cookie for cookie consent management. The site is hosted behind Cloudflare DNS and registrar services, providing performance and security benefits. Performance is moderate with some optimization via WP Rocket caching. The site is mobile responsive and has good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No critical technical issues were detected, but security headers and DNSSEC are missing, representing technical debt and risk.
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.
