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

The website www.emn.ee serves as the official Estonian contact point for the European Migration Network, providing comprehensive migration and asylum policy reports, applied research, and urgent information exchange. It targets policymakers, researchers, and migration professionals, positioning itself as a trusted government-related entity with a focus on migration statistics and policy analysis. The site is well-structured, content-rich, and regularly updated with news, events, and publications relevant to migration topics. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with Yoast SEO and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking. It demonstrates good mobile optimization and moderate performance. The use of HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms reflects a solid privacy posture, although some security headers and explicit incident response information are missing. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, it lacks published security policies and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, which could enhance trust and compliance. No WAF or blocking mechanisms were detected, indicating full accessibility. Overall, the website scores well on content quality, technical implementation, security posture, privacy compliance, and business credibility, making it a reliable and professional resource in its domain. Strategic improvements in security headers, incident response transparency, and accessibility could further strengthen its position.

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

5 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

  2. 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

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

  4. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

The European Migration Network's Estonian contact point operates as a small government entity focused on migration policy and research. Its market position is stable within the public sector, serving a niche audience of policymakers and migration experts. The business model revolves around providing authoritative reports, statistics, and research outputs funded by the EU and national government. The website reflects a consistent branding strategy and a clear content focus, supporting its role as a trusted information hub. Growth indicators include regular publication updates and event hosting. The partnership ecosystem is primarily governmental and EU-related, with no commercial subsidiaries or partners identified.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, aligning with GDPR requirements. The absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure reduces transparency and may impact stakeholder trust. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found. The use of third-party analytics is balanced with privacy considerations. Security headers such as Content Security Policy and HSTS are not detected, representing an area for improvement. Overall, the site maintains a secure environment suitable for its informational purpose but could benefit from enhanced security governance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish explicit security and incident response policies on the website to improve transparency and stakeholder confidence.
  3. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to comply with WCAG standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to minimize security risks and maintain performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress CMS with Yoast SEO plugin, leveraging Google Analytics and Tag Manager for user tracking. It uses modern JavaScript libraries such as Swiper.js for interactive content sliders. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and includes structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO enhancement. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in loading speed and accessibility. The technical stack is standard for government informational sites, providing a balance between functionality and maintainability. No major technical debt or outdated components were detected, but security header implementation and accessibility improvements are recommended.
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.
