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

Young Arts Arizona Ltd. is a US-based non-profit organization founded in 2001 that provides art education and exhibition opportunities for children and youth. The organization partners with schools, social agencies, medical facilities, and public galleries to facilitate workshops and display thousands of artworks annually. Their market position is that of an established regional non-profit with a strong community focus and trust signals such as 501(c)(3) certification and Guidestar profile. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Enfold theme and Avia framework, hosted on Liquid Web. The site is moderately performant, mobile-optimized, and uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate. However, it lacks advanced security headers and privacy compliance features such as cookie consent and privacy policies. From a security perspective, the site has a good SSL configuration and domain transfer protection but lacks DNSSEC and security headers. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided. The WHOIS data shows privacy protection consistent with the organization's non-profit status and domain age appropriate for its history. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and safe for general audiences but would benefit from improved privacy compliance and enhanced security practices to strengthen its posture and user trust.

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

9 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 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

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

Young Arts Arizona operates in the non-profit sector focusing on art education for children and youth. Their business model revolves around educational workshops, art exhibitions, and partnerships with public galleries and social agencies. The organization targets schools, medical facilities, and community groups, leveraging a network of collaborations to maximize impact. Revenue streams likely include donations, sponsorships, and grants, supported by visible donation and sponsor pages. The presence of a Guidestar profile and 501(c)(3) status enhances credibility. The organization maintains consistent branding and a clear mission, positioning itself as a trusted community resource in Arizona.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced with a valid SSL certificate, and domain transfer is protected. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosure policy or incident response contacts are published, which limits transparency and preparedness. No analytics or tracking scripts reduce privacy risks but also indicate limited user behavior monitoring. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small non-profit but could be improved to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with user consent mechanisms to improve GDPR and privacy compliance.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Add security headers such as CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  4. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and security readiness.
  5. Consider integrating basic analytics with privacy-respecting configurations to better understand user engagement and improve site performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a mature WordPress platform using the Enfold theme and Avia framework, indicating a stable and widely supported infrastructure. Hosting is provided by Liquid Web, a reputable hosting provider. The site uses jQuery and standard WordPress scripts, with no detected outdated or vulnerable libraries. Performance is moderate with some optimization for mobile devices. The site lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features but maintains a clear navigation structure and consistent branding. Technical debt appears low, but opportunities exist to modernize security configurations and enhance privacy compliance.
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.
