OÜ Piksel is an established Estonian software company founded in 1994, specializing in software development focused on data management systems including information systems, databases, registries, and dynamic websites. The company serves businesses and organizations requiring tailored software solutions, with key products such as ARNO and SPOKU targeting education and municipal services. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence with clear contact information and references to their core services. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern plugins and frameworks, offering good mobile optimization and user experience. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and Google reCAPTCHA integration, though it lacks some advanced security headers and formal security policies.

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. 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 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

  2. Security headers

    • 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

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

Piksel holds a niche position in the Estonian software market, focusing on public sector and enterprise data systems. Their business model revolves around custom software development, deployment, and maintenance, with a focus on integration with national systems such as X-Road. The company targets municipal governments, educational institutions, and other organizations requiring complex data handling solutions. Their longevity since 1994 indicates stability and experience. Partnerships with platforms like ARNO and SPOKU enhance their ecosystem presence. The website content and product references suggest a focus on reliability and tailored solutions rather than mass-market consumer software. Growth indicators include ongoing projects in data warehousing and API integrations for government clients.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and integrates Google reCAPTCHA v3 on its contact form, indicating awareness of basic security practices. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which may impact trust and compliance. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files. The site uses popular WordPress plugins and themes, which require regular updates to mitigate vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is moderate with good foundational elements but lacking in advanced security transparency and controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and configure security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible security reporting.
  4. Regularly audit and update all WordPress plugins and themes to minimize risk from known vulnerabilities.
  5. Provide clear incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.1 using the Blocksy theme and several Gutenberg block plugins such as Stackable Ultimate and Kadence Blocks. It uses React and jQuery libraries for frontend interactivity and Google reCAPTCHA v3 for bot protection on forms. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses Google Fonts for typography. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. However, the site lacks advanced accessibility features and some security best practices. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and suitable for a small to medium-sized software company website.
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.
