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. 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 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
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. 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

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

The company holds a strong market position as the preferred prime contractor and designer for the Bulgarian Navy's MMPV program, leveraging the heritage and expertise of its parent NVL group. Its business model centers on engineering and design services within the naval shipbuilding industry, targeting government and defense sectors. The website reflects strategic partnerships and memberships, such as BULNAS, and provides transparent information about certifications and milestones, indicating growth and operational maturity. The presence of career links to the parent company suggests integration within a broader corporate ecosystem. The company’s focus on quality management and innovation positions it competitively in the naval defense market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, no visible sensitive data leaks, and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR. However, the absence of key security headers (e.g., Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options) and lack of published incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies represent areas for improvement. The use of Matomo analytics indicates a privacy-conscious approach to user tracking. No vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns were detected in the content or WHOIS data. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by implementing additional HTTP security headers and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish an incident response policy or dedicated security contact information to improve transparency and readiness for security incidents.
  3. Develop and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerable components are included.
  5. Enhance monitoring and logging capabilities to detect and respond to potential security threats promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10 CMS, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Slick Carousel for UI components. It integrates Matomo for analytics and Cookiefirst for cookie consent management, reflecting a modern and privacy-aware technology stack. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive images and good accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in loading times. The use of AWS DNS servers suggests reliable hosting infrastructure. Technical debt appears low, but security header implementation and incident response readiness could be improved to reduce operational risks.
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.
