Risk levelMedium

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

ORLEN Upstream is a medium-sized energy sector company operating in Poland, specializing in upstream oil and gas exploration and production. It is a subsidiary of the larger ORLEN group, a major player in the Polish energy market. The website is built on Microsoft SharePoint, reflecting a corporate and professional digital presence. The site includes a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR, indicating attention to privacy and regulatory requirements. Technically, the site uses common web technologies such as jQuery and Google Analytics for visitor tracking, with a moderate performance profile and basic mobile optimization. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, though some security headers could be improved. No critical vulnerabilities or suspicious content were detected. Overall, the domain WHOIS data is not publicly available, which is typical for .pl domains, but the website content and branding strongly support legitimacy. The site lacks explicit contact details and terms of service pages, which could be enhanced for better business credibility.

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

4 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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. 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 positions itself as an important entity within the Polish energy sector, focusing on upstream oil and gas activities. Its business model revolves around exploration and production, serving industry partners and investors. The website's linkage to the parent ORLEN domain confirms its corporate affiliation. The use of professional branding and compliance with privacy regulations suggests a mature business operation. However, the absence of direct contact information and detailed business registration data on the site limits transparency. The company likely generates revenue through energy production and related services, targeting a specialized audience in the energy industry. The partnership ecosystem includes the parent ORLEN group, with no other subsidiaries or partners explicitly listed on the site.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and a robust cookie consent mechanism that respects user privacy and GDPR compliance. The use of Cookiebot for consent management and Google Analytics for tracking is standard practice. However, the site could improve by implementing additional security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The lack of explicit security or incident response policies on the site suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a corporate website but could benefit from enhanced security controls and clearer communication of security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  2. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility to improve user experience across devices.
  3. Publish clear contact information and terms of service to increase business transparency and credibility.
  4. Develop and disclose security and incident response policies to demonstrate security maturity and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure they do not introduce vulnerabilities or privacy risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Microsoft SharePoint, leveraging jQuery and Nivo Slider for UI components, and integrates Cookiebot for cookie consent management. Google Analytics is used for visitor tracking, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. The site uses asynchronous loading for scripts and includes meta tags for compatibility and charset. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in mobile responsiveness and SEO optimization. The technical stack is stable and common for corporate sites but could be modernized with newer frameworks and enhanced accessibility features. No critical technical debt or risks were identified 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.
