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

MOL Group Chemicals operates as a key division within MOL Group, focusing on the production and distribution of polymers, monomers, and base chemicals. The company targets industrial clients in sectors such as automotive, packaging, and chemical manufacturing, positioning itself as a leading Central Eastern European chemical producer with a strong emphasis on sustainability and innovation. Their digital presence is supported by a modern technical infrastructure including Vue.js, jQuery, and integration with Google Analytics and Tag Manager, hosted on Microsoft Azure DNS. Security measures include HTTPS enforcement, CSRF tokens, and Google reCAPTCHA, alongside a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism and privacy policy aligned with GDPR standards. However, the site lacks explicit security policies and vulnerability disclosure information, which could be improved to enhance trust and compliance. Overall, the domain registration data aligns well with the business claims, indicating a legitimate and established online presence.

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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

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

MOL Group Chemicals benefits from its parent company's strong market position in the energy and chemical sectors. The business model is B2B, serving industrial clients with a broad portfolio of chemical products and polymers. Their partner portal and extensive product catalogues support client engagement and sales. The company demonstrates commitment to sustainability and innovation, as evidenced by recent press releases and product launches. The website content and structure reflect a professional and consistent brand image, targeting European markets primarily. The presence of multiple language options and regional sales offices indicates a broad geographic reach. Strategic partnerships and a clear focus on product quality and technical support underpin their competitive advantage.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and CSRF protection implemented. The use of Google reCAPTCHA on forms helps mitigate spam and automated abuse. Cookie consent is managed with a detailed mechanism allowing user preferences, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security hardening. No public security policy or incident response contacts are provided, which limits transparency and preparedness communication. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Enhancing security headers and publishing incident response information would strengthen the security posture further.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript stack including Vue.js and jQuery, with UI components like Owl Carousel and Select2 enhancing user experience. Google Tag Manager and Analytics are integrated for tracking and performance monitoring. Hosting is supported by Microsoft Azure DNS, indicating reliable infrastructure. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and accessible navigation. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in loading times. The absence of a known CMS suggests a custom or proprietary platform. Overall, the technical implementation supports a professional and scalable web presence, though improvements in accessibility and performance tuning could be beneficial.
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.
