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 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  3. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

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

Zoé4Life operates in the healthcare and non-profit sectors, focusing on pediatric cancer support and research funding. Its business model relies on donations, events, and community engagement. The organization targets families affected by childhood cancer, donors, and corporate partners. The website reflects a mature digital presence with multilingual support and detailed information on projects and events. Partnerships include an e-commerce shop hosted on a related domain. The organization demonstrates transparency and trust through published activity reports and social media engagement.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and uses cookie consent tools to comply with privacy regulations. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published. The site uses third-party scripts including Google Analytics and YouTube embeds, which are managed with user consent. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional headers and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Consider adding direct contact emails or phone numbers for support and inquiries to improve user trust and accessibility.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and flexible infrastructure. Hosting is provided by Infomaniak, a reputable Swiss hosting provider. The site loads with moderate performance and is mobile optimized. Cookie consent is managed by CookieYes, providing granular user control. The use of Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics enables detailed visitor tracking with privacy compliance. The site uses jQuery and other standard libraries. No major technical debt or outdated components were identified, but security headers are missing which is a technical risk. Overall, the technical implementation supports the business goals effectively.
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.
