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.

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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 company leverages partnerships with major Bulgarian media outlets such as Nova.bg, Vesti.bg, Gong.bg, and Edna.bg to provide diverse content, enhancing user engagement and retention. The integration of mobile apps across major platforms (Google Play, App Store, Huawei AppGallery) supports multi-channel user access. The business model is primarily advertising-driven with additional revenue from premium account upgrades. The company targets Bulgarian internet users seeking email and news services, maintaining a strong foothold in the local digital media market. The long domain age and consistent WHOIS data reinforce its established reputation.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses secure login forms with password masking features. Ads are sandboxed in iframes to reduce risk exposure. However, the absence of explicit security headers (e.g., CSP, X-Frame-Options) and lack of published incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies indicate room for improvement in security maturity. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. GDPR compliance is indicated by the presence of a comprehensive privacy policy, but cookie consent mechanisms are missing. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a cookie consent banner to comply fully with GDPR requirements.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to improve defense-in-depth.
  3. Publish an incident response policy and vulnerability disclosure program, including a security.txt file.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and ad networks to minimize tracking and potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom CMS with jQuery and JavaScript for frontend interactivity. It loads CSS and JS resources asynchronously and defers scripts for performance optimization. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and includes meta viewport tags. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility. The technical stack is modern but lacks advanced frameworks or CMS detection. Hosting provider details are not explicit. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and canonical links. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a stable and user-friendly experience but could benefit from modernization and enhanced accessibility.
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.
