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

Cosmic Bees is a small Lithuania-based digital agency specializing in web design, branding, animation, and custom web application development. The company presents a professional portfolio showcasing diverse projects across multiple countries, indicating an international client base and solid market positioning within the technology sector. Their business model focuses on delivering comprehensive digital solutions including brand identity, interactive motion design, and content management systems. Technically, the website employs modern web standards such as HTML5, CSS3, PHP with Symfony 2 framework, and JavaScript libraries including jQuery. They also utilize WordPress and PrestaShop platforms alongside a proprietary CMS, demonstrating a mature and versatile technical infrastructure. The website is moderately optimized for mobile and SEO, with good navigation and content relevance. Security posture is basic but adequate, with HTTPS enabled and no visible vulnerabilities; however, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers suggests room for improvement. Privacy compliance is lacking due to missing privacy and cookie policies, which poses a risk under GDPR regulations. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional but would benefit from enhanced security and compliance measures.

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. 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

  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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

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

Cosmic Bees operates as a boutique digital agency with a focus on creative and technical services for businesses seeking web and brand development. Their portfolio indicates a diverse client base across Europe and beyond, suggesting competitive positioning in the international market. The company leverages a combination of open-source platforms and custom solutions to deliver tailored services. Revenue streams likely derive from project-based contracts in design, programming, and content management. The presence of social media links and contact details supports active client engagement and marketing efforts. No parent or subsidiary companies are identified, indicating independent operation. The company’s longevity since 2010 and consistent branding reinforce credibility and stability in the technology services sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled, protecting data in transit. However, the lack of DNSSEC and absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options reduce defense-in-depth. No forms or input fields are present, minimizing attack surface from injection or data leakage. Tracking scripts from Google Analytics and AddThis are used, but no cookie consent mechanism or privacy policy is provided, exposing compliance risks under GDPR. Incident response contacts or security policies are not disclosed, indicating limited transparency in security governance. Overall, the site is low risk but should enhance security controls and privacy compliance to meet modern standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to harden the website against common attacks.
  4. Provide clear incident response contact information, such as a security@ or abuse@ email address, to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update all third-party libraries and tracking scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities and privacy risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using a modern and diverse technology stack including HTML5, CSS3, PHP with Symfony 2, MySQL, JavaScript, and jQuery. It integrates popular CMS platforms like WordPress and PrestaShop alongside a proprietary CMS named B-MOD. External resources include Google Fonts and CDN-hosted jQuery. The site loads scripts asynchronously and uses Google Tag Manager and AddThis for analytics and social sharing. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO meta tags present. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved. The hosting registrar is Name SRS AB with DNS servers hosted at serveriai.lt, but DNSSEC is not enabled. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and accessibility improvements.
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.
