Mecatroplan is a Finnish engineering consultancy specializing in intelligent mechanical engineering solutions for industrial clients. Established in 2006, the company leverages over 100 years of combined design experience to address critical product development and manufacturing challenges. Their key services include mechanical design, product development projects, and documentation and visualization, targeting Finnish industrial manufacturers and engineering teams.

Technically, the site is built on WordPress using modern plugins such as Yoast SEO and Google Site Kit, with Google Analytics integrated for visitor tracking. The site is mobile-optimized and performs moderately well, though some improvements in accessibility and security headers could be made. The domain is well-established and consistent with the business claims, registered since 2006 with a reputable registrar. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and no visible vulnerabilities, but lacks advanced security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is basic; a privacy policy is present but no cookie consent mechanism is implemented despite tracking usage. Contact information is available primarily via contact forms and social media links, with no explicit emails or phone numbers found on the homepage. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and professional image suitable for its target industrial audience, with room for improvement in privacy compliance and security best 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

11 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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
    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: PostgreSQL

      Port 5432 (PostgreSQL) is publicly accessible - PostgreSQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to PostgreSQL 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 SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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 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

Business profile

Mecatroplan operates as a specialized engineering consultancy serving Finnish industrial sectors such as energy and manufacturing. Their business model focuses on project-based engineering services, including mechanical design and product development support. The company positions itself as an experienced and flexible partner with over 100 years of combined expertise, emphasizing budget and schedule adherence. Their market presence is supported by client testimonials and references showcased on the website. The company targets industrial manufacturers and engineering teams in Finland, with offices in Lahti, Joutsa, and Mikkeli. The website content and structure support lead generation and recruitment efforts, indicating a growth-oriented strategy. Social media presence on LinkedIn and Facebook enhances their professional network and visibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is properly configured, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options indicates potential areas for enhancement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact channels suggests limited transparency in security governance. Privacy compliance is partial; while a privacy policy exists, there is no cookie consent mechanism despite the use of Google Analytics, which may pose GDPR compliance risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small consultancy website but would benefit from implementing additional security controls and privacy measures.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with GDPR and inform users about tracking.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit and update plugins and themes to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 7.0.2 with the GeneratePress theme and uses several plugins including Yoast SEO for search engine optimization, Carousel Block for content sliders, and Google Site Kit for analytics integration. The site loads external scripts from Google Tag Manager and uses Typekit fonts. The HTML is well-structured with modern meta tags including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data for SEO. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization evident. Accessibility features are basic but present, such as skip links and ARIA labels. No critical technical debt or deprecated technologies were identified. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and implement cookie consent mechanisms 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.
