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

The Agenția Națională a Medicamentului și a Dispozitivelor Medicale din România (ANMDMR) is the Romanian national agency responsible for the regulation, authorization, and safety monitoring of medicines and medical devices. The website serves as an official government portal providing regulatory information, public health announcements, and resources for healthcare professionals and the public. It holds a strong market position as the authoritative body in its sector within Romania. Technically, the website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Google Analytics, and various plugins for enhanced user experience and content management. The site is mobile optimized and demonstrates good SEO and accessibility practices, although some improvements in accessibility and security headers could be made. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. However, the absence of explicit security headers and incident response contacts suggests room for enhancement in security posture. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with its governmental role. The domain WHOIS data is privacy protected by ROTLD, which is standard for Romanian domains, and the site content and branding strongly support its legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include improving security headers, publishing incident response information, and enhancing accessibility features.

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

7 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

    • 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

  2. 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
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

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

ANMDMR operates as a government regulatory agency in the healthcare sector, focusing on medicines and medical devices. Its business model is service-oriented, providing authorizations, safety monitoring, and public information. The agency targets healthcare professionals, pharmaceutical companies, patients, and the general public in Romania. The website reflects a medium-sized organization with a clear focus on regulatory compliance and public health. Partnerships with other government and health-related entities are evident, supporting a robust ecosystem. The agency's operations are transparent with published policies and contact channels, reinforcing its credibility and public trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and GDPR-compliant cookie consent. The lack of visible security headers such as CSP, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options indicates potential areas for improvement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The site lacks explicit incident response contact information and a security.txt file, which are recommended best practices. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by adopting additional security headers and formalizing vulnerability disclosure processes.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Publish clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure contact information, possibly via a security.txt file.
  3. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance website accessibility to meet WCAG standards for broader compliance and usability.
  5. Maintain transparency by updating privacy and cookie policies regularly and ensuring all compliance requirements are met.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS, leveraging common plugins such as SiteOrigin Panels, Max Mega Menu, and Easy Video Player. It uses Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for tracking and marketing analytics. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO practices including meta tags and structured navigation. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in loading speed and accessibility. The technical infrastructure is stable and suitable for a government agency, but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance tuning.
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.
