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

6 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

NOS operates in the telecommunications sector in Portugal, providing bundled services that include mobile, internet, TV, and security alarms. The business model is focused on consumer subscriptions and device sales through an online store. The company demonstrates strong branding consistency and trust signals such as official contact details and social media presence. The website's navigation and content structure support customer self-service and product discovery, enhancing user experience. NOS's integration with Salesforce and Adobe platforms suggests a sophisticated CRM and marketing ecosystem. The absence of publicly disclosed security certifications or incident response policies indicates areas for potential improvement in transparency and security governance.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and uses security best practices such as cookie consent management and Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate automated threats. However, there is no explicit mention or public documentation of security policies, incident response plans, or vulnerability disclosure programs. Security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options were not explicitly detected in the provided data, which could be enhanced. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from increased transparency and additional header implementations to harden defenses.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and customer trust.
  2. Implement and explicitly declare Content-Security-Policy and other security headers to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Create and host a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all users.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and SDKs to mitigate risks from external dependencies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, integrating Salesforce Lightning Design System and various Salesforce SDKs, indicating a robust enterprise-grade CMS and CRM integration. Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot are used for analytics and consent management, respectively. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO practices including meta tags and structured data. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in loading times and script management. Accessibility is basic and could be improved. The technical stack supports a comprehensive digital marketing and e-commerce experience, but continuous monitoring and updates are recommended to maintain security and performance.
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.
