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

9 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
      • 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
  • 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

EMP Recycling operates in the waste management and recycling sector, focusing on electronic and metal waste streams. Its business model revolves around waste collection, purchasing from individuals and companies, and processing to recover valuable raw materials. The company maintains multiple physical locations across Lithuania and offers logistics services for waste removal. Its parent company is Elemental Holding Group, indicating a broader corporate structure. The website content and structure suggest a medium-sized enterprise with a strong local market presence. The company leverages digital marketing and analytics tools to optimize customer engagement and operational efficiency. Partnerships with related domains like parduodunaudota.lt and ideaformus.lt indicate a collaborative ecosystem. The business shows growth potential through service diversification and sustainability initiatives.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and integration of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms from spam and abuse. Tracking and analytics scripts are loaded asynchronously, reducing performance impact. However, explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not visibly configured, which could be improved to mitigate clickjacking, MIME sniffing, and cross-site scripting risks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Privacy compliance is supported by a clear privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism. Incident response and security policy details are not publicly disclosed, which is common but could be enhanced for transparency. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but has room for improvement in header configurations and incident response visibility.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Conduct regular third-party script audits to ensure no vulnerable or deprecated libraries are in use.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet WCAG standards for broader user inclusivity.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving regulations and best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS, utilizing popular plugins such as Yoast SEO for search engine optimization and Google Tag Manager for analytics management. The tech stack includes jQuery and lazy loading for images, improving performance. Hosting is supported by Cloudflare DNS and nameservers, providing CDN and security benefits. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and supports multiple languages via hreflang tags. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and use of caching indicated by static asset versioning. There is some technical debt in missing security headers and basic accessibility features. Overall, the infrastructure is stable and modern but could benefit from enhanced security and accessibility 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.
