High risk. 11 critical or high findings in Network security, Security headers and 2 other checks.

Security score

45/100

Risk levelHigh

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

ELLAT HIGIENA is a Russian-based company specializing in wholesale and retail sales of reference strains of microorganisms from ATCC and NTCC collections, culture media, reagents, and laboratory consumables. Founded in 1991, the company targets laboratories and scientific institutions, positioning itself as a niche supplier with international partnerships. The website is built on WordPress, hosted by Bluehost, and uses common web technologies such as jQuery, Bootstrap, and Slick Slider. While the site is functional and professionally designed with good mobile optimization, it lacks comprehensive privacy and cookie policies and does not have configured analytics tracking. Security posture is basic with HTTPS enabled but missing important security headers and DNSSEC. No WAF or blocking mechanisms are detected, and the domain registration is consistent and legitimate.

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. 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
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL 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 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';…

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

The company operates in the healthcare and laboratory supplies sector, focusing on microbiology research materials. Its business model is based on direct sales to laboratories and research organizations, supported by partnerships with recognized international suppliers. The website content and partner logos reinforce credibility, though contact information is minimal and lacks direct emails or phone numbers. The company appears small in size but established with a history dating back to 1991. The digital presence is moderate, with opportunities to improve privacy compliance and security measures to enhance trust and regulatory adherence.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS but lacks critical security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options, which are important to mitigate common web attacks. DNSSEC is not enabled, which could improve DNS security. The Google Analytics plugin is installed but not configured, indicating incomplete tracking setup. No incident response or security policy information is provided on the site. Overall, the security posture is basic and could be improved by implementing standard web security best practices and privacy compliance measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance considerations.
  2. Configure and enable security headers including Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to enhance DNS security.
  4. Properly configure Google Analytics or remove unused tracking plugins to avoid privacy concerns.
  5. Add clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.2 using a Serenity Lite theme and common plugins such as Contact Form 7 and MonsterInsights. It uses jQuery, Bootstrap 4.1.3, Slick Slider, and Font Awesome for UI components and styling. Hosting is provided by Bluehost Inc., a reputable hosting provider. The site loads with moderate performance and is mobile optimized. SEO optimization is basic with meta tags present but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags detected. Accessibility features are minimal but present. The site lacks advanced security configurations and privacy compliance mechanisms, indicating room for technical 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.
