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

6 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"

      • 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';…
  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

      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

WikiCamps holds a strong market position as a specialized travel app targeting campers, caravanners, and backpackers in Australia. Its business model leverages user-generated content combined with booking services, creating multiple revenue streams. The company benefits from strategic partnerships, notably with Bookeasy for bookings and uses popular platforms like Apple App Store and Google Play for distribution. The target audience is well-defined, and the company has maintained consistent branding and content quality since its founding in 2014. The presence of active support channels and comprehensive policies further supports its credibility. Growth potential lies in expanding booking partnerships and enhancing privacy compliance to meet evolving regulatory requirements.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS and no exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents a gap that could be exploited in certain attack scenarios. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, which could hinder rapid response to security events. The use of multiple third-party tracking and advertising scripts increases the attack surface and privacy risks. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found, indicating limited transparency in security practices. Overall, the security posture is good but could be significantly improved by adopting recommended headers, publishing security policies, and implementing cookie consent mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and improve user trust.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and remediate potential risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a stable and widely supported technology stack including jQuery and Bootstrap, ensuring compatibility and responsiveness across devices. Google Tag Manager facilitates flexible analytics and marketing integrations. Hosting via Azure DNS suggests a robust infrastructure. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, particularly in loading times and script management. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and accessibility is good, supporting a broad user base. SEO practices are solid with appropriate meta tags and Open Graph data. However, the absence of a CMS or modern JavaScript frameworks may limit scalability and dynamic content management. Technical debt appears low but modernization opportunities exist to enhance performance and security.
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.
