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

inoLAB Kastav is a Croatian regional project focused on fostering youth innovation and entrepreneurship within the urban agglomeration of Rijeka. The project is led by Grad Kastav and partners with local innovation associations, supported by EU funding. The website serves as an informational and engagement platform offering workshops, mentoring, and events to young innovators aged 15-24. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with Elementor and Yoast SEO, hosted by Plus Hosting Grupa d.o.o., and uses modern web technologies. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled but lacks some security headers and privacy compliance elements such as privacy and cookie policies. The site is accessible without WAF or blocking mechanisms and contains no adult or questionable content, targeting a general youth audience. Overall, the website is professional and credible but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security practices.

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

10 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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • 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

  3. 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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 project positions itself as a key regional initiative to support youth innovation and entrepreneurship through education and community engagement. Its competitive advantage lies in EU funding and partnerships with local innovation bodies. The business model is public and non-profit, focusing on social inclusion and employability of youth. Revenue streams are likely grant-based. The target customers are young innovators, students, and educators in the region. Growth indicators include ongoing workshops and events. The partnership ecosystem includes Savez inovatora PGŽ and Klub inovatora KIN Kastav, with a reservation partner kaspi.hr. The project operates transparently with structured data and SEO optimization, but lacks explicit contact details and privacy policies.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data exposure. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and HSTS, which could improve protection against common web attacks. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, and no privacy or cookie policies to indicate GDPR compliance. The use of WordPress and popular plugins suggests regular updates but also requires vigilance against plugin vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is functional but could be significantly improved with standard best practices and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and enable HSTS.
  3. Provide clear contact information including official emails and phone numbers for business and security incident reporting.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact channels to improve security transparency.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities and maintain security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using Elementor for page building and Yoast SEO for optimization. It employs jQuery and Revolution Slider for interactive content. Hosting is provided by Plus Hosting Grupa d.o.o., a known Croatian hosting provider. The site is mobile optimized and uses structured data (JSON-LD) and Open Graph tags for SEO. Performance is moderate, with some large images and slider content. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No major technical debt is evident, but security and privacy technical implementations need enhancement. The site lacks advanced analytics or tracking scripts, indicating minimal user tracking.
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.
