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

The website represents the official online presence of the Pavilniai and Verkiai Regional Parks Directorate, a Lithuanian government-funded entity responsible for managing and preserving regional parks and cultural heritage sites. The site provides comprehensive information about the parks, visitor services, educational events, and protected natural areas, targeting tourists, nature enthusiasts, and local visitors. The business model is focused on public service and environmental conservation, with a clear government affiliation and a small organizational size. Technically, the website employs a custom CMS with modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Swiper.js, and Bing Maps API for interactive features. The site is mobile-optimized and includes accessibility considerations, although some improvements could be made. Performance is moderate, with good SEO and metadata implementation. Security is robust with HTTPS enforced and Google ReCaptcha protecting forms, but lacks some advanced security headers and explicit incident response documentation. The security posture is solid for a government site, with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear cookie consent mechanisms and a dedicated privacy policy page. Contact information is transparent and consistent with the entity's official status. However, the absence of WHOIS data limits domain registration verification, though the overall trust indicators support legitimacy. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and serves its informational and public service purpose effectively. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies, and maintaining privacy compliance to further strengthen trust and security.

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

      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

  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)

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

The Pavilniai and Verkiai Regional Parks Directorate operates as a government entity focused on environmental conservation and cultural heritage preservation. Its market position is unique as an official regional park authority, providing visitor services, educational programs, and park management. The business model relies on public funding and community engagement. The website reflects a stable partnership ecosystem with local community organizations and environmental groups. Growth indicators include active event promotion and educational outreach. The entity maintains a clear and consistent brand aligned with government standards, targeting local and international visitors interested in nature and culture.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and use of Google ReCaptcha to mitigate spam and automated abuse. Cookie consent mechanisms align with GDPR requirements, indicating good privacy practices. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No incident response or security policy pages were found, which could enhance transparency and preparedness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the site balances usability and security well but should consider formalizing security documentation and enhancing header protections.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish an incident response policy and contact channels for security issues to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Develop and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly audit third-party libraries and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable versions are in use.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving regulations and user expectations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom CMS platform with integration of modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Swiper.js for sliders, and Microsoft Bing Maps API for interactive mapping. Google ReCaptcha is implemented for form security. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata and Open Graph tags. Performance is moderate, with potential optimization in loading external scripts and CSS. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with ARIA roles and better keyboard navigation support. Hosting details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
