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

Eesti Hotellide ja Restoranide Liit (EHRL) is the largest professional association representing the hospitality sector in Estonia, including hotels, restaurants, schools, and supporting members. The organization focuses on advocacy, information dissemination, and training to support its members and the broader hospitality industry. The website reflects a mature digital presence with content primarily in Estonian and an English alternative, targeting hospitality businesses and professionals in Estonia. The business model is membership-based, emphasizing industry representation and service provision. The domain age and WHOIS data support the legitimacy and established nature of the organization. Technically, the website is built on WordPress 6.8.2 with common plugins such as Yoast SEO and CookieYes for cookie consent management. It uses modern JavaScript libraries like jQuery and Swiper for UI components. The site is hosted under Zone Media OÜ, a known Estonian registrar and hosting provider. Performance and mobile optimization are good, though accessibility features are basic. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and structured data. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and implements a detailed cookie consent mechanism, including granular user controls. However, no explicit security headers were detected, and there is no visible security policy or incident response contact information. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The site uses tracking tools such as Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel, with moderate user tracking levels and basic privacy compliance. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and aligned with its business purpose. The main risks relate to the absence of a published privacy policy and security headers, which could be improved to enhance compliance and security posture. The site is safe for general audiences with no adult or questionable content.

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

8 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

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

EHRL holds a strong market position as the leading hospitality association in Estonia, representing a significant share of the hotel market in Tallinn and nationwide. Its competitive advantage lies in its comprehensive membership base and active role in advocacy, training, and information sharing. Revenue streams likely include membership fees and event participation. The target customers are hospitality businesses and professionals seeking industry support and networking. Growth indicators include active event scheduling and digital content updates. Partnerships include design and coding services from eDream Hotels and an e-commerce subdomain for gift cards. The organization maintains a focused ecosystem supporting hospitality sector development.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and a robust cookie consent mechanism that aligns with GDPR requirements. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of a public security policy or incident response contacts indicate gaps in security transparency and defense-in-depth. No vulnerabilities or sensitive data exposures were detected, and third-party scripts appear standard. Compliance with GDPR is partial, with cookie consent but no explicit privacy policy found. Incident response readiness is unclear. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could benefit from enhanced policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing data processing and GDPR compliance.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a public security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform with up-to-date core and plugins, including Yoast SEO and CookieYes for compliance. It uses jQuery and Swiper for interactive UI elements and LightGallery for media display. Hosting is provided by Zone Media OÜ, a reputable Estonian registrar and hosting provider. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) and Open Graph tags for enhanced search engine visibility. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and accessibility could further modernize the infrastructure and reduce risks.
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.
