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

4 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 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

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  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
      • 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

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

Forbis operates in the finance sector as an essential entity providing IT solutions tailored to banks, fintechs, payment providers, and other financial institutions. Their business model is B2B focused, delivering software and services that reduce IT burdens for clients. The company has a solid client base with over 50 implementations and 20+ live clients in 5 countries. Their certifications and cyber security status provide competitive advantages. The company targets financial institutions seeking reliable and compliant IT infrastructure. Growth indicators include ongoing projects like the Treasury Single Account system and active news updates. The partnership ecosystem includes social media presence but no explicit partner domains were identified. Strategic observations suggest a mature company with a focus on compliance and client-centric innovation.

Security posture

Forbis demonstrates a mature security posture with ISO 27001, ISO 20000, and ISO 9001 certifications, and official recognition as a cyber security entity by Lithuania's National Cyber Security Centre. The website enforces HTTPS and includes cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of a published incident response policy, vulnerability disclosure program, or security.txt file indicates areas for improvement. The company appears compliant with relevant security standards and legal requirements but could enhance transparency and readiness for incident handling. Overall, the security culture is positive, supported by certifications and official status, but could benefit from formalized public security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Enhance website accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards.
  4. Add a comprehensive terms of service page to clarify user agreements.
  5. Improve SEO by adding structured data and Open Graph metadata for better indexing and sharing.

Google Maps API integration enhances contact and location presentation. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design elements. Performance is moderate, with potential for improvement in loading speed and SEO optimization. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or static site architecture.

Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and SEO compliance to enhance overall digital maturity.
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.
