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

8 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  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 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 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.

Breach exposure

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention lba.lt, from OffSeq Breach.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

LBA holds a strong market position as the representative body for Lithuania's banking sector, with membership including major banks and credit unions. Its business model revolves around advocacy, sector coordination, public education, and promoting best practices in finance and sustainability. The association leverages partnerships with European banking federations and local institutions to influence legislation and sector standards. The website reflects a medium-sized organization with a clear focus on financial services, sustainability, and digital literacy. The presence of multiple partner domains and active social media channels supports a robust partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators include regular news updates and sector statistics, positioning LBA as a central hub for banking sector information in Lithuania.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and a visible cookie consent mechanism supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The site lacks visible incident response or security policy documentation, which could enhance trust and preparedness. The use of third-party analytics scripts introduces moderate user tracking, balanced by consent mechanisms. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from enhanced header configurations and published security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish explicit privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the homepage to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Add incident response contact information and security policy documentation to demonstrate readiness and accountability.
  4. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable libraries are in use.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet WCAG standards, improving usability for all users and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern front-end stack using Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for DOM manipulation, lightslider for carousels, and amCharts for data visualization. Google Analytics and Tag Manager are used for analytics and tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with a responsive layout and viewport meta tags. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of analytics scripts. No CMS or backend technologies are explicitly identified. The site lacks advanced SEO metadata beyond basic keywords and description meta tags. Accessibility is basic with room for improvement. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional web presence with opportunities for modernization and enhanced security.
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.
