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

The website cursbnm.md is a specialized financial information portal providing daily updated official currency exchange rates from the National Bank of Moldova (BNM). It serves individuals and businesses interested in Moldovan currency rates, offering tools such as currency converters, historical charts, IBAN validation, and SWIFT code information. The site is independent but sources official data from BNM, positioning itself as a trusted informational resource within Moldova's financial sector. Technically, the site employs modern web technologies including JavaScript, jQuery, Google Fonts, Google Adsense for advertising, OneSignal for push notifications, and amCharts for graphical data representation. The site is mobile-optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS with excellent SSL configuration and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, it lacks some recommended security headers and does not provide a privacy or cookie policy, which are compliance gaps. No direct contact emails or phone numbers are found, only a contact form. Advertising is managed via Google Adsense, and user tracking is moderate through Google Analytics and OneSignal. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and safe for general audiences but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and security header implementation.

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

11 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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

Cursbnm.md operates in the Moldovan finance sector as an informational service provider focused on currency exchange rates. Its business model revolves around providing free access to official exchange rate data, supplemented by advertising revenue from Google Adsense. The target audience includes Moldovan residents, businesses, and anyone needing reliable currency exchange information related to the Moldovan Leu. The site has maintained consistent operation since 2015, indicating stability and market presence. Partnerships or affiliations include sourcing data from the National Bank of Moldova and development by layerzero.ro. The site’s competitive advantage lies in its comprehensive currency data coverage, daily updates, and additional financial tools like IBAN validation. Growth indicators include active social media presence and push notification subscriptions. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to enhance user trust and compliance by adding privacy and cookie policies and improving security practices.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture. It enforces HTTPS with a strong SSL configuration, ensuring encrypted communication. No sensitive data is exposed in the HTML content. The use of reputable third-party services like Google Analytics and OneSignal is noted, but these introduce moderate user tracking. The absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. There is no published security policy or incident response information, which limits transparency and preparedness. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies and lack of consent mechanisms. No vulnerabilities or malicious indicators were detected in the provided content. Overall, the site is secure but could improve by implementing recommended security headers and privacy compliance measures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to improve GDPR and privacy compliance.
  2. Implement cookie consent mechanisms to inform and obtain user consent for tracking.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  4. Provide clear security and incident response policies including contact channels for reporting security issues.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and standard technology stack including JavaScript, jQuery, Google Fonts, and amCharts for interactive charts. It integrates Google Adsense for monetization and OneSignal for push notifications, indicating a mature digital marketing approach. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of analytics and ads scripts to reduce blocking. No CMS or hosting provider details are explicitly detected. Accessibility is basic but functional. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, canonical links, and hreflang attributes for Romanian and Russian languages. The site could benefit from enhanced accessibility features and performance optimizations to improve user experience further.
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.
