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

Week van het geld is a Dutch national initiative focused on promoting financial literacy among children and youth through educational programs and partnerships with government and financial sector entities. The website serves as an information hub offering thematic packages, guest lessons, explainer videos, and toolkits for schools and parents. The initiative is positioned as a trusted, government-related non-profit with a clear target audience in the education sector. Technically, the website uses a modern stack including nginx, Google Tag Manager, and accessibility tools like ReadSpeaker. However, it suffers from a critical security flaw: the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support, which severely impacts its security posture. The site is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and includes GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms. Security-wise, the lack of HTTPS and proper SSL configuration is a major vulnerability. While other security headers are partially present, the site does not implement advanced protections such as OCSP stapling or session resumption. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, which could be improved to enhance trust. Overall, the website is functional and professional but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and maintain trust. Strategic recommendations include immediate SSL certificate installation, enabling HTTPS, fixing DNS CAA records, and publishing security policies to improve compliance and user confidence.

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.

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

  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 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';…

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 initiative operates in the education and government sectors as a medium-sized non-profit entity under the umbrella of Wijzer in geldzaken. It leverages partnerships with financial institutions and municipalities to deliver financial education programs nationwide. The business model is based on collaboration and public funding rather than commercial revenue. The website supports this ecosystem by providing resources and communication channels for educators, parents, and partners. The presence of active social media channels and a newsletter indicates ongoing engagement and outreach efforts. The lack of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a controlled communication approach, likely centralized through web forms. Market positioning is strong within the Dutch financial education landscape, with clear branding and consistent messaging. The initiative benefits from government association and recognized trust signals but could enhance transparency by publishing more detailed business and security information.

Security posture

The website's security maturity is low due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support, which is a critical vulnerability exposing users to data interception risks. While some security headers like Strict-Transport-Security are present, they are not effectively enabled. The site does not support modern TLS protocols or advanced SSL features such as OCSP stapling or session resumption, limiting both security and performance. No evidence of incident response or security policies is found, indicating a potential gap in organizational security governance. The cookie consent mechanism is GDPR compliant and transparent about data usage, which is a positive privacy practice. No vulnerable libraries or known exploits are detected in the provided data. To improve security posture, the organization should prioritize SSL certificate installation, enable HTTPS, fix DNS CAA records, and publish security and incident response policies. These steps will reduce risk and enhance user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable and enforce HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload directives to prevent protocol downgrade attacks.
  3. Correct and validate DNS CAA records to ensure proper certificate issuance control.
  4. Publish clear security policies and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update security headers and SSL/TLS configurations to align with best practices.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on a DigitalOcean IP with nginx as the web server. It uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking, and ReadSpeaker for accessibility. The site employs modern JavaScript modules and CSS for styling. The HTML content is well-structured with semantic elements and ARIA attributes supporting accessibility. Performance data is missing, but the site appears to be optimized for mobile devices and includes skip links and other accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph tags, and JSON-LD structured data for breadcrumbs. However, the lack of a valid SSL certificate and disabled TLS protocols represent significant technical debt and security risk. The malformed CAA DNS records indicate misconfiguration. No CMS or framework is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or government platform. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but requires urgent security upgrades and performance monitoring.
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.
