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

WAT WAT is a Belgian educational platform providing reliable information tailored for young people aged 11 to 24. The website offers thematic content on various youth-related topics such as exam stress, student jobs, travel, alcohol, appearance, love, and money. It is positioned as a trusted resource supported by recognized organizations and government partners. Technically, the site is built on Drupal 10, employs modern web technologies, and includes responsive design for mobile users. The presence of Google Analytics and Tag Manager indicates moderate user tracking for analytics purposes. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, though security headers could be improved. Privacy and cookie policies are present with consent mechanisms, reflecting GDPR compliance. However, WHOIS data is restricted, showing a 'NOT ALLOWED' status, which is common for privacy protection but slightly reduces transparency. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and well-suited for its target audience.

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. 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"

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 platform serves the youth education sector in Belgium, focusing on providing accessible and trustworthy information to young people. Its business model revolves around content provision and educational outreach, supported by partnerships with governmental and non-profit organizations. The presence of a shop subdomain suggests some revenue through informational material sales. The site targets a broad youth demographic, offering age-tailored content and interactive features like age pickers. Its market position is strengthened by affiliations with entities like Eryica, Ambrassade, and Vlaanderen. The platform demonstrates a solid digital presence with modern CMS usage and active social media engagement on Instagram and TikTok.

Security posture

WAT WAT maintains a good security posture with HTTPS enabled site-wide and no exposed sensitive data in the HTML content. The site uses secure forms for search functionality and employs Google Tag Manager for analytics. However, no explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. There is no visible security.txt or vulnerability disclosure policy, and no incident response contact information is provided. The WHOIS data is privacy-protected, which is reasonable for this type of platform but limits transparency. Overall, the site is secure but could benefit from additional security best practices and clearer incident response mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve transparency.
  3. Provide explicit incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Enhance visibility of contact information to improve user trust and support.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10 CMS, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as Flickity for carousels and React for cookie notices. It uses Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking and analytics. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with lazy loading of images and efficient CSS usage. The HTML is valid and SEO optimized with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. There is no evidence of outdated or vulnerable libraries. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and well-maintained, supporting a good user experience.
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.
