Open GovGuam, powered by GuamWEBZ, is a specialized technology service provider delivering turnkey and custom digital solutions tailored for the Government of Guam. With over 21 years of experience, they offer a comprehensive suite of services including websites, mobile apps, cloud hosting, live streaming, and ongoing support. Their market position is strong locally, serving multiple government agencies with certified technology expertise and a centralized cloud platform. Technically, the website is built on Drupal CMS with modern frameworks and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for user insights. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly, though accessibility features are basic. Security posture is good with HTTPS and domain transfer protections, but lacks DNSSEC and some security headers.

Overall, the business credibility is high with transparent contact information and trust signals from client logos and certifications.

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

8 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 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 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 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

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

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 operates in the government technology sector, focusing on digital transformation for Guam's public sector. Their business model centers on providing pre-built and custom web and digital solutions with 24/7 support, targeting government agencies, departments, and programs. Revenue likely derives from platform subscriptions, custom development, and support services. The partnership ecosystem includes major technology vendors like Cisco, Microsoft, and Oracle, enhancing credibility. The company leverages cloud hosting and video broadcast platforms to differentiate its offerings. Growth indicators include a broad portfolio of government clients and a long operational history. Strategic observations suggest a focus on scalability, compliance, and centralized management to maintain competitive advantage.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced with anonymized IP tracking in analytics, and domain transfer is locked. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no advanced security headers were detected, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. There is no published security policy or incident response contact information, indicating gaps in transparency and preparedness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the content. The absence of cookie consent mechanisms may pose compliance risks under GDPR or similar regulations. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but could be improved with enhanced DNS security, security headers, and published policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response plan on the website.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and improve transparency.
  4. Deploy security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate vulnerabilities and maintain secure operations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a Drupal CMS platform with integration of jQuery, Bootstrap, and FontAwesome for UI components. It uses Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for tracking and data collection. Hosting is supported by Cloudflare DNS services and an unspecified USA-based premium hosting provider, ensuring reliable uptime and performance. The site is mobile responsive and SEO optimized with proper meta tags and canonical links. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of analytics scripts. Accessibility features are basic but present. The technical stack is modern and appropriate for the target audience, though there is room for improvement in security configurations and privacy compliance.
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.
