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

Polska Izba Odzysku i Recyklingu Opakowań (PIOIRO) is a Polish business association focused on supporting producers and importers of multi-material packaging and hazardous substance packaging in fulfilling their legal obligations for waste collection, recovery, and recycling. The organization collaborates with regional authorities and experienced waste management companies to provide operational support and compliance services. The website is professionally designed using WordPress and includes recent news updates, indicating active engagement with its audience. However, explicit contact details and comprehensive privacy or security policies are limited on the main pages. Technically, the site uses modern frameworks and plugins but lacks some security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, which are recommended for GDPR compliance and enhanced 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

11 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

  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

PIOIRO occupies a niche regulatory compliance and waste management support role within the Polish packaging industry. Its business model revolves around facilitating legal compliance for packaging producers and importers, leveraging partnerships with regional government bodies and waste management firms like ALBA Group. The organization targets businesses obligated by Polish law to manage packaging waste, offering services even to non-members. The website content and structure reflect a focused and professional approach, with regular updates and event information. The absence of detailed contact information on the homepage suggests reliance on dedicated contact pages or direct outreach. The lack of visible analytics or marketing tools indicates a low-profile digital marketing strategy, emphasizing trust and regulatory compliance over aggressive promotion.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communication. However, no explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which could improve protection against common web attacks. There is no visible incident response or security policy information, nor vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. The absence of a cookie consent mechanism despite a cookie policy page indicates partial GDPR compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced by implementing recommended headers, explicit privacy and security policies, and user consent mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply fully with GDPR requirements.
  3. Publish detailed privacy policy and terms of service documents with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  4. Include explicit contact information such as company emails and phone numbers prominently on the website.
  5. Establish and publish an incident response policy and vulnerability disclosure process to enhance trust and security readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using the Sydney theme and Smart Slider 3 plugin, leveraging Bootstrap for responsive design and Google Fonts for typography. The site loads moderately fast with optimized images and lazy loading techniques. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive menus and layouts. Accessibility features are basic but present, such as skip links and screen reader text. SEO optimization is basic, with meta tags and structured navigation but no advanced schema.org structured data or Open Graph tags detected. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified. No third-party analytics or tracking scripts were found, indicating minimal user tracking. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from enhanced SEO and accessibility improvements.
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.
