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. 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

  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 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

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 organization operates in the non-profit cooperative sector in Italy, leveraging partnerships with LegaCoop and related cooperative funds. Its business model centers on event organization and cooperative promotion, targeting a broad audience including national and European institutions, political and economic stakeholders, and the academic and cultural community. The domain is newly registered in 2025, consistent with the event dates and organizational claims. The website demonstrates moderate digital maturity with modern CMS and SEO tools, but lacks advanced security policies and incident response disclosures. The partnership ecosystem is clearly visible through linked partner domains and logos, supporting credibility and market positioning.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and a cookie consent mechanism, indicating baseline security and privacy awareness. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which could expose the domain to DNS spoofing risks. No advanced security headers like Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options are detected, representing an area for improvement. There is no visible security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency in case of security events. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced with additional technical controls and policy disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing attacks.
  2. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Consider adding phone contact information or a contact form to enhance user trust and communication.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with Elementor page builder and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and widely supported CMS environment. The use of Cloudflare DNS suggests some level of hosting and DNS protection, though DNSSEC is not enabled. The site loads multiple CSS and JS assets including jQuery and Elementor scripts, which are standard for such platforms. Performance is moderate with lazy loading and responsive design features implemented. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Accessibility is basic with skip links and alt attributes present but could be improved. No critical technical issues or errors were detected in the HTML content.
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.
