Security score

44/100

Risk levelHigh

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

AMES is a Lithuanian language academy offering English and other language courses for students, adults, and businesses both in major cities and online. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image focused on education and consultation services. The technical infrastructure is based on OpenCart CMS with the Journal3 theme, integrating modern marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Facebook Pixel, and Tawk.to chat. Mobile optimization and SEO appear adequate, though accessibility features are basic. Security posture is limited by lack of visible security headers, incident response policies, and vulnerability disclosures. WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, reducing transparency and trust. Overall, the site is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced privacy, security, and compliance disclosures.

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

10 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)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • 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.

    • 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

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 · 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

The company targets language learners including students, adults, and corporate clients in Lithuania. Its business model centers on educational services and consultations, positioning itself as a local language academy with online offerings. The use of multiple tracking and marketing tools indicates a focus on customer engagement and lead generation. Absence of detailed business registration or contact information on the site limits deeper business intelligence. No partnerships or subsidiaries are evident from the data. The company appears small-sized with a niche focus in the education sector.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and integrates third-party scripts for analytics and chat, but lacks visible security headers and documented security policies. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present. The absence of privacy and cookie policies raises compliance concerns, especially under GDPR. WHOIS data is inaccessible, limiting domain trust verification. The security score is moderate with recommendations to implement security headers, publish privacy and incident response policies, and improve transparency. No critical vulnerabilities were detected in the provided content.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for business and security incidents.
  4. Establish and publish an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy.
  5. Improve WHOIS transparency or use a registrar that allows public WHOIS data to enhance trust.
Site observations

Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.

Generic detected. WHOIS query limit exceeded message indicates possible rate limiting or blocking by registry server. No WAF challenge detected in HTML content but WHOIS data is inaccessible. These observations may be incomplete. For a fuller analysis, contact guard@offseq.com.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on OpenCart CMS with the Journal3 theme, using JavaScript libraries and third-party services for chat (Tawk.to), analytics (Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity), and email marketing (MailerLite). The site is mobile optimized and uses modern meta tags for SEO and social media sharing (Open Graph, Twitter Cards). Performance is moderate with some asynchronous script loading. Accessibility is basic with room for improvement. No server or hosting provider details were found. The WHOIS query limit restricts domain registration data access, which is a technical limitation for trust verification.
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.
