Security score

Risk levelHigh

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

Bhalkeshwar Sugars Limited is a regional sugar manufacturing company based in India, operating since 2000. The company produces sugar and related products such as bio-fertilizer, ethanol, power, and molasses. It also contributes to local infrastructure development including bridges and power stations. The website provides basic information about the company and its products but lacks modern digital features and security measures. Technically, the website uses legacy technologies including Flash content, Bootstrap for styling, and SpryMenuBar for navigation. The site is served over HTTP without HTTPS, which is a significant security concern. The design is basic with limited mobile optimization and accessibility features. No modern analytics or tracking tools are detected. From a security perspective, the absence of HTTPS, lack of security headers, and use of deprecated Flash content expose the site to risks. There are no privacy or cookie policies, and no contact information for security or incident response. These factors indicate a low security maturity level. Overall, the website presents moderate business credibility but poor security and privacy compliance. Strategic improvements in security infrastructure, policy transparency, and modernization of technology stack are recommended to enhance trust and compliance.

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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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
  4. 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"

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

Bhalkeshwar Sugars Limited operates in the energy sector focused on sugar production and related products. The company targets local agricultural producers and regional stakeholders in the Bidar district. Its business model centers on manufacturing and selling sugar, bio-fertilizer, ethanol, power, and molasses. The company also invests in local infrastructure development, which may strengthen community ties and market position. The website content is basic but consistent with a small regional business. No evident partnerships or subsidiaries are mentioned. Growth indicators and revenue streams are not disclosed.

Security posture

The website's security posture is weak due to the lack of HTTPS, absence of security headers, and use of deprecated Flash technology. No privacy or cookie policies are present, and no incident response contacts are provided. These gaps expose the business to risks such as data interception, lack of user trust, and potential compliance violations. The site does not collect user data via forms, which reduces some risk but also limits engagement. Overall, the security maturity is low, and immediate remediation is needed to protect business and user data.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate to secure all website traffic.
  2. Remove deprecated Flash content and replace with modern HTML5 alternatives.
  3. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with data protection regulations.
  4. Introduce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for business and security incident reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses an outdated technology stack including Flash and SpryMenuBar JavaScript widgets, combined with Bootstrap CSS for styling. The HTML structure is basic and lacks modern semantic elements. The site is served over HTTP without SSL, which is a critical technical deficiency. Performance is moderate but could be improved by removing legacy content and optimizing assets. Mobile optimization is basic, and accessibility features are minimal. There is no CMS detected, indicating a static or custom-built site. Modernization opportunities include migrating to HTTPS, removing Flash, and adopting responsive design frameworks.
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.
