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

MTL Carton is a Lithuanian manufacturing company specializing in carton packaging production, including custom paper cups and packaging printing services. The company participates in EU-funded projects focused on sustainable investments and employee skill development, indicating a commitment to innovation and sustainability. Their website is professionally designed, primarily in Lithuanian, with multilingual support, targeting business clients needing packaging solutions. The business model is B2B manufacturing with a regional market focus. Technically, the website uses a traditional tech stack with jQuery and Google Analytics, served over HTTPS with moderate performance and basic mobile optimization. The site lacks modern frameworks or CMS indications and does not implement advanced accessibility or SEO features. No forms were detected on the main page, limiting data collection points. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS but lacks security headers and published security policies. No privacy or cookie policies were found, which is a compliance gap under GDPR. The WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, reducing transparency about domain registration and ownership. Contact information is clearly presented, enhancing business credibility. Overall, the website is functional and professional but requires improvements in privacy compliance, security best practices, and transparency to enhance trust and reduce risk.

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. 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

  2. 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 SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  3. 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

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

Business context

Business profile

MTL Carton operates in the manufacturing sector, focusing on carton packaging solutions with a niche in sustainable and custom printed packaging. Their participation in EU projects suggests access to funding and alignment with sustainability trends, which can be a competitive advantage. The company targets business customers requiring packaging, likely in food and retail sectors. The website content and structure indicate a medium-sized enterprise with a stable market position in Lithuania. The lack of social media presence and limited digital marketing tools may constrain growth potential. Partnerships with local digital agencies (Gaumina) indicate professional support for their online presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled, which is mandatory. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options is a notable gap. No vulnerability disclosures, incident response contacts, or data protection officer information are published, limiting transparency and readiness for security incidents. The use of Google Analytics introduces moderate user tracking without visible privacy controls or cookie consent mechanisms, posing compliance risks under GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to improve protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish vulnerability disclosure and incident response information to enhance transparency and security culture.
  4. Improve mobile optimization and accessibility features to enhance user experience and SEO.
  5. Obtain and publish WHOIS domain registration details or use a WHOIS privacy service transparently to improve trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a legacy JavaScript library (jQuery) and Google Analytics for tracking. It is served over HTTPS, indicating good SSL configuration. The site lacks modern frameworks or CMS indicators, suggesting a custom or older platform. Performance is moderate with no explicit optimization techniques detected. The site includes multilingual support but has basic mobile responsiveness and accessibility. No forms were detected on the main page, limiting interactive functionality. The absence of security headers and privacy policies indicates technical debt in security and compliance areas. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the HTML content.
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.
