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.

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

Voorkomfraude.nl operates as an important initiative within the banking sector in the Netherlands, focusing on fraud prevention education. Its business model centers on providing free, accessible information to consumers to reduce fraud impact. The platform leverages partnerships with multiple banks, enhancing its credibility and reach. The target audience is broad, encompassing all internet users vulnerable to fraud. The website's content strategy includes multimedia resources such as videos and podcasts, supporting engagement and education. Market positioning is strong due to backing by financial institutions, though direct monetization or commercial services are not evident. Growth potential lies in expanding educational content and partnerships. The absence of direct contact information suggests a focus on information dissemination rather than direct customer service.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and DNSSEC enabled, reducing risks of interception and DNS spoofing. The use of Clearsite Security plugin indicates proactive security management. Cookie consent and privacy policies align with GDPR requirements, reflecting compliance awareness. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analysis. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a compliance and transparency gap. The site could improve by formalizing these aspects to enhance incident readiness and stakeholder trust. Overall, the security posture is strong but could benefit from enhanced documentation and communication of security practices.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security measures and user guidance.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by including terms of service and more detailed business contact information.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform with version 6.8.2, utilizing Yoast SEO Premium for search engine optimization and EWWW Image Optimizer for image performance enhancements including WebP support. The presence of jQuery and Swiper.js indicates use of common JavaScript libraries for UI interactions and sliders. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and tracking, integrated with cookie consent mechanisms to comply with privacy regulations. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good accessibility features. Hosting details are not explicitly identified beyond the registrar (Realtime Register). Performance is moderate, with potential for improvement through further optimization of assets and caching. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly experience with room for modernization in hosting transparency and performance tuning.
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.
