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

Velux Foundations is a well-established Danish non-profit organization focused on philanthropic activities, operating since 2009. The website serves as a portal to two foundation groups, Villum Fonden and Velux Fonden, indicating a clear mission in grant-making and charitable support. The site is built on Drupal 10, featuring modern web technologies such as SVG graphics and JavaScript for analytics. The technical infrastructure is moderate in performance and well-optimized for mobile devices, though accessibility features are basic. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS usage implied, but lacks explicit security headers and DNSSEC, which are recommended for enhanced protection. Privacy and cookie policies are not explicitly present, indicating room for compliance improvement. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security practices.

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

7 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

    • High

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.

Business context

Business profile

The Velux Foundations website positions itself as a key player in the Danish philanthropic sector, leveraging its long domain history and consistent branding to build trust. Its business model centers on non-profit grant funding, targeting general public and partners interested in foundation activities. The absence of direct contact information on the main page suggests a controlled communication approach, possibly directing users to specific foundation sub-sites. The use of minimal external domains and a reputable registrar supports operational stability. The partnership with veluxfonden.dk is evident, indicating a collaborative ecosystem. The website’s content quality and design reflect a medium-sized organization with a focused mission and moderate digital maturity.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is used, ensuring encrypted communication, but the lack of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS reduces defense-in-depth. No forms or input fields were detected, minimizing attack surface from injection or data leakage vulnerabilities. The absence of explicit privacy and security policies may expose compliance risks under GDPR. Analytics usage is limited to Plausible, a privacy-friendly service, which reduces tracking risks. Incident response and data protection officer contacts are not found, indicating potential gaps in security governance. Overall, the site is secure for informational purposes but should enhance security controls and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and serve security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish clear and comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  4. Add explicit contact information including emails and phone numbers for general inquiries and security incidents.
  5. Conduct an accessibility audit and improve features to meet WCAG standards for better inclusivity.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10, a modern and secure CMS platform, indicating up-to-date infrastructure. The use of SVG logos and minimal external scripts contributes to efficient page loading and good mobile optimization. Analytics are handled by Plausible, a lightweight and privacy-conscious service. However, the lack of visible security headers and DNSSEC suggests technical debt in security hardening. The site’s performance is moderate, with room for improvement in SEO and accessibility. No forms or interactive elements were detected, reducing complexity but also limiting user engagement. Overall, the technical setup is stable but could benefit from enhanced security and compliance features.
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.
