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

  • 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

LPM Comunicação operates in the media and communication sector, focusing on consultancy and public relations. Its competitive advantage lies in its long market presence and comprehensive service portfolio. The business model is service-oriented, targeting corporate clients, associations, and institutions. The company maintains partnerships and related domains for storytelling and industry news, enhancing its ecosystem. Growth indicators include a diverse client portfolio and continuous content updates. The company emphasizes reputation, leadership, digital presence, and creativity as core pillars of its service offering.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, Do Not Track respected in analytics, and a cookie consent mechanism. However, it lacks visible security headers and published security policies or incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The absence of a security.txt file and vulnerability disclosure policy suggests room for improvement in transparency and incident management readiness. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional documented policies and headers.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy detailing GDPR compliance.
  2. Add explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  4. Create and host a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Notes

The website is built on Drupal CMS with Bootstrap framework, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as Slick Carousel and lazy loading techniques for images. Matomo analytics is used for privacy-respecting user tracking. The site is mobile responsive and accessible, with good SEO practices including meta tags, canonical links, and structured data in JSON-LD format. Performance is moderate, with potential optimization opportunities in CSS and script loading. Hosting provider details are not explicit. The technical stack supports a professional and scalable digital presence suitable for the company's business needs.
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.
