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

11 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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  3. 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.

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 · found on this site
  • 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

AluStar operates in the construction and renovation sector with a focus on glass and aluminum structures. The company leverages European standards and certifications as trust signals. Their business model is service-oriented, targeting regional clients needing building renovations and specialized constructions. The website content and contact details suggest a small-sized enterprise with a localized market presence. The absence of privacy policies and limited security disclosures indicate potential compliance gaps. The company uses third-party tools like JivoSite chat and Facebook SDK for marketing and customer engagement. No direct partnerships or subsidiaries are identified from the website content. The business appears stable with a clear market niche but could benefit from enhanced digital maturity and compliance measures.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and basic obfuscation techniques for email addresses, indicating some security awareness. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No visible forms with CSRF protection or advanced input validation are present. The lack of a security.txt file or incident response contact information limits transparency in vulnerability management. The use of third-party scripts introduces potential risks if not regularly updated. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but requires improvements in headers, policies, and incident response readiness to align with best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add and configure essential HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Establish a security.txt file and provide clear incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance website accessibility and SEO metadata to improve user experience and search visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS using Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for interactivity. It integrates Google Maps API for location display and Facebook SDK for social media features. The presence of JivoSite chat widget indicates real-time customer engagement capabilities. The site loads multiple external scripts asynchronously, which helps performance but requires monitoring for security. The HTML structure is valid with meta viewport tags for mobile optimization. However, SEO optimization is basic with limited meta descriptions and no structured data like JSON-LD or Open Graph tags detected. Accessibility features are minimal but functional. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and resource optimization. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid for a small business but could benefit from modernization and enhanced SEO and accessibility practices.
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.
