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.

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

Hoob OÜ operates in the manufacturing sector with a focus on automation solutions and subcontracting services. Its business model revolves around providing customized factory automation systems and engineering services to production companies, enhancing their operational efficiency. The company leverages partnerships and certifications to build trust and credibility. Growth indicators include expanded production capacity and participation in industry fairs. The target customers are industrial manufacturers seeking automation and outsourcing solutions. The company’s digital presence reflects a medium-sized enterprise with consistent branding and professional content.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and use of nonce tokens in forms to prevent CSRF. Anti-spam honeypot techniques are implemented in contact forms. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is noted. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Privacy and cookie policies are missing, indicating a compliance gap with GDPR requirements. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure information are not provided, limiting transparency. Overall, the security maturity is good but can be enhanced by adopting additional best practices and formal policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with user consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen defense against common web attacks.
  3. Establish and disclose incident response and vulnerability disclosure procedures to enhance security transparency and readiness.
  4. Improve website accessibility features to meet broader compliance and usability standards.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using a combination of jQuery, Bootstrap 3.4.1, Font Awesome, and Slick Carousel for UI components and interactivity. SEO is enhanced via the Yoast SEO plugin with proper meta tags and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate with deferred font loading and lazy loading of images. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and accessible navigation. Hosting and domain registration are consistent with the company’s Estonian location. Technical risks are minimal but include potential improvements in security headers and privacy compliance. The infrastructure supports a professional and scalable digital presence.
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.
