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

AMT - Autoridade da Mobilidade e dos Transportes is a Portuguese government regulatory authority responsible for overseeing and supervising the mobility and transport sectors including terrestrial, railway, maritime, and fluvial transport. The organization provides regulatory frameworks, consumer protection, public consultations, and knowledge management services. It holds a strong national position as the official transport regulator in Portugal, serving a broad audience including consumers, transport operators, and government stakeholders. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with comprehensive content and clear navigation. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies such as Bootstrap, jQuery, and Video.js, ensuring good mobile optimization and accessibility. The site uses HTTPS with an excellent SSL configuration and integrates Google Analytics for user tracking with appropriate cookie consent mechanisms. However, some security headers are missing, and there is no explicit security policy or incident response information published. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates good practices including secure video embedding and no exposed sensitive data. The absence of a security.txt file and incident response contact points are areas for improvement. The WHOIS data confirms the legitimacy and consistency of the domain registration with the business purpose and country. Overall, the website is trustworthy, well-maintained, and compliant with GDPR requirements. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing a security policy, and improving incident response transparency to further strengthen the security 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.

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

AMT operates as a government regulatory authority in the transportation sector in Portugal, focusing on regulation, supervision, and consumer protection. Its market position is strong as the official national body for transport oversight. The business model is non-commercial, funded by government resources, and focused on public service. Key services include regulatory enforcement, public communication, consumer rights advocacy, and research. The organization collaborates with European and international transport bodies, enhancing its partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators include active public engagement through events and publications. The website supports these operations with comprehensive content and digital tools, reflecting a mature digital presence aligned with its mission.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and no visible exposure of sensitive data. Cookie consent mechanisms align with GDPR compliance. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No dedicated security policy or incident response page is available, which limits transparency and preparedness communication. The lack of a security.txt file also reduces ease of vulnerability reporting. Overall, the security maturity is good but can be improved by adopting additional security headers, publishing incident response procedures, and enabling vulnerability disclosure channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance browser security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Create and host a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve security communication.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.
  5. Enhance user trust by adding trust seals or certifications related to security and privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and stable technology stack including Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for DOM manipulation, and Video.js for multimedia content. It integrates YouTube iframe API for video embedding and Google Analytics for user behavior tracking. The site is mobile optimized and accessible, with semantic HTML and ARIA labels. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed by optimizing images and scripts. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or static site architecture. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively but could benefit from performance tuning and enhanced security configurations.
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.
