Risk levelMedium

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

Ellington Printing OÜ is a well-established Estonian full-service printing and production agency with over 30 years of experience and a strong market position as the largest in its sector locally. The company leverages a cloud-based ordering platform to streamline client interactions with production providers, emphasizing sustainability and efficiency. The website reflects a professional digital presence built on WordPress with modern marketing and analytics tools integrated. However, the absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and domain transfer protections but lacks advanced security headers and DNSSEC. Contact information is clearly presented, supporting business credibility. Overall, the website is functional, user-friendly, and professionally designed but requires improvements in privacy compliance and security hardening.

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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 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';…

  2. 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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

    • High

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

Ellington operates in the manufacturing sector focusing on printing and marketing material production. Its business model combines traditional production services with a cloud-based platform to optimize order processing and logistics. The company serves a broad client base in Estonia and nearby regions, managing thousands of projects annually. Strategic advantages include a strong local market presence, innovative cloud solutions, and a reputation for reliability and speed. The partnership with a dedicated ordering environment domain indicates an integrated service ecosystem. Growth potential lies in expanding digital automation and sustainability initiatives. The company currently lacks visible certifications but maintains trust through client testimonials and transparent contact channels.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protections in place. However, the lack of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces resilience against certain attacks. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which may hinder rapid mitigation of security issues. The absence of privacy and cookie policies also exposes the company to regulatory risks under GDPR. Forms use nonce tokens, indicating some protection against CSRF attacks. Overall, security practices are basic but could be significantly improved to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit GDPR compliance and consent mechanisms.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and integrity.
  3. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and improve transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using a modern tech stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, and popular marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and Drip. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO optimization via Yoast SEO plugin. Performance is moderate, with no critical errors detected. Hosting provider details are not explicit but DNS servers indicate European hosting. The site uses nonce tokens in forms for security. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and implement advanced security headers. The technical infrastructure supports business operations well but requires enhancements to meet higher security and privacy standards.
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.
