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

GMR Visakhapatnam International Airport Limited is a subsidiary of GMR Airports Limited focused on developing a Greenfield international airport in Bhogapuram, Andhra Pradesh, India. The website presents corporate information, policies, annual reports, and highlights the airport project and its social responsibility initiatives. The company is positioned as a medium-sized transportation infrastructure entity within the GMR Group portfolio, targeting travelers, investors, and stakeholders. Technically, the website uses a modern tech stack including Bootstrap, jQuery, and Google Tag Manager, hosted behind Cloudflare DNS. The site is mobile optimized with good navigation and SEO practices, though accessibility features are basic. Performance is moderate with no critical technical issues detected. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and domain locks in place, but lacks DNSSEC and explicit security headers. No cookie consent mechanism or incident response contacts are published, indicating room for improvement in privacy compliance and security transparency. No vulnerabilities or malware indicators were found. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy with a good business credibility score. Strategic improvements in security headers, DNSSEC, privacy compliance, and incident response disclosures would enhance the security posture and regulatory compliance.

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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

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 company operates in the transportation sector, specifically airport infrastructure development and management. It benefits from being part of the large GMR Group with multiple airport assets domestically and internationally. The business model focuses on airport operations and passenger services, supported by corporate social responsibility efforts through the GMR Varalakshmi Foundation. The website reflects a medium-sized enterprise with a clear market position as a developing international airport. The presence of detailed corporate policies, annual reports, and multiple related domains indicates a mature partnership ecosystem and transparent governance. The target audience includes travelers, investors, and government stakeholders. Growth indicators include ongoing airport construction and planned capacity expansion. The company leverages digital tools for marketing and analytics but could improve privacy and security disclosures.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and domain registration protections active. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and HSTS reduces defense-in-depth. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are published, limiting transparency and readiness communication. The use of third-party scripts like Google Tag Manager and Analytics introduces moderate tracking but no known vulnerabilities were detected. Privacy compliance is partial, lacking cookie consent mechanisms and GDPR explicit statements. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a corporate informational site but requires enhancements to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to comply with GDPR and privacy regulations.
  4. Publish incident response and vulnerability disclosure contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to minimize security risks and ensure privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and widely adopted technology stack including Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for DOM manipulation, and Slick Carousel for UI components. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are used for tracking and marketing analytics. Hosting is supported by Cloudflare DNS services, providing DNS resilience and potential CDN benefits. The site is mobile optimized with good navigation clarity and SEO meta tags. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved. Performance is moderate with no major technical debt observed. There is no detected CMS, suggesting a custom or static site architecture. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs but could benefit from enhanced security configurations 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.
