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

The Lietuvos Agrarinių ir miškų Mokslų centras (LAMMC) is a Lithuanian government-affiliated research institution specializing in agricultural and forestry sciences. The website serves as a comprehensive portal for scientific publications, research projects, doctoral studies, and institutional information, targeting researchers, students, and professionals in the agrarian and forestry sectors. It maintains a strong market position as a leading national research center with a medium organizational size and a clear focus on education and government research activities. Technically, the website is built on EasyWeb 4 CMS with AngularJS 1.5.5, integrating modern web fonts and analytics tools such as Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with a cookie consent mechanism in place, although it lacks a dedicated privacy policy page and explicit security headers. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and XSRF protections, but could be improved by adding security policies and incident response contacts. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-structured, reflecting the institution's credibility and public service mission.

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

6 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

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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 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

LAMMC operates as a public research entity with a business model centered on scientific research, education, and service provision in agriculture and forestry. Its revenue streams likely include government funding, research grants, and service fees. The institution targets academic and professional audiences, supported by partnerships with ecological agriculture forums, government ministries, and industry clusters. The website's content and linked partner domains indicate a well-established ecosystem of collaborations and a strategic focus on innovation and knowledge dissemination. The absence of commercial advertising and the presence of official social media channels reinforce its public sector orientation and credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to strong security posture with HTTPS enabled and XSRF protection mechanisms. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security represents an area for improvement. No explicit security policies, incident response information, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present, which could hinder transparency and responsiveness in case of security incidents. The use of older AngularJS 1.5.5 may pose some risks if not regularly patched. Overall, the security measures are adequate for a government research site but could benefit from enhanced policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing data collection and processing practices.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Add a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly update and audit third-party libraries, especially AngularJS, to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance cookie consent mechanisms with granular user controls and clear GDPR compliance statements.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on EasyWeb 4 CMS with AngularJS 1.5.5, leveraging Google Fonts and multiple third-party analytics and marketing scripts. The technical implementation is modern but uses an older AngularJS version, which may require updates for security and performance. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices including meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and optimized images. No major technical debt or errors were detected, but improvements in security headers and privacy documentation are recommended to align with best practices.
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.
