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

The website www.oilandgas.nl serves as an informational resource focused on the Dutch energy production sector, specifically oil & gas, geothermal, and wind energy. It provides detailed industry data including exploration and production licenses, company directories, and sells related industry posters and books. The target audience appears to be industry professionals and companies operating within the Netherlands energy market. The business model centers on information dissemination and product sales related to the energy sector. Technically, the website is built on Joomla CMS using the Gantry5 framework, incorporating modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, jQuery UI, and Google reCAPTCHA v3 for bot protection. The site demonstrates moderate performance and basic mobile optimization. SEO and accessibility features are present but could be improved. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and Google reCAPTCHA but lacks visible security headers and published privacy or cookie policies, which are critical for GDPR compliance. No contact information or incident response channels are provided, limiting transparency and trust. No vulnerabilities or malicious content were detected in the provided data. Overall, the website is functional and professional but requires improvements in privacy compliance, security best practices, and contact transparency to enhance trustworthiness and regulatory adherence.

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

The website occupies a niche position as an information provider for the Dutch energy production industry, offering detailed data on licenses, operators, and services. Its competitive advantage lies in specialized content and industry-specific products like laminated posters and comprehensive books. The business model is primarily B2B, targeting energy companies and professionals. Growth indicators include the publication of updated editions and a sizable print run. The partnership ecosystem is not explicitly detailed, and no parent or subsidiary companies are identified. The site’s operations appear focused on content provision and industry networking within the Netherlands.

Security posture

The current security posture is basic with HTTPS and Google reCAPTCHA implemented to mitigate automated abuse. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. The lack of published privacy and cookie policies indicates non-compliance with GDPR requirements. No incident response or security contact information is available, which may hinder timely vulnerability reporting and mitigation. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, with significant room for improvement in compliance and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against web vulnerabilities.
  3. Provide clear contact information including security incident response channels to improve transparency and responsiveness.
  4. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility to improve user experience across devices.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and frameworks to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website utilizes Joomla CMS with the Gantry5 framework, leveraging modern frontend technologies including jQuery, jQuery UI, Bootstrap 5, and Font Awesome 6. Google reCAPTCHA v3 is integrated for bot mitigation. The site structure is clear with good navigation and content relevance. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. Mobile responsiveness and accessibility are basic but functional. SEO practices are present but could be enhanced with richer metadata and structured data. No advanced hosting or CDN information was detected. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from modernization and security hardening.
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.
