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
5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
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 X-Frame-Options header
Prevents clickjacking attacks
What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"
This scan found 25 issues across 6 checks. Monitoring re-runs those checks daily, emails you when something material changes and records each fix, so you can show progress.

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.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The website positions itself as a key information source within the recycling industry, leveraging a media publishing business model with diversified revenue streams including subscriptions, events, and advertising. Its target audience comprises industry professionals seeking up-to-date news and insights. The presence of a media kit and subscription options indicates a mature commercial operation. The site maintains partnerships with related domains for digital archives and language variants. While lacking explicit company registration details on the site, the professional presentation and active content suggest a medium-sized enterprise based in Germany. The business ecosystem includes social media engagement primarily via LinkedIn, enhancing its market presence.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is properly implemented, and cookie consent mechanisms are active, reflecting compliance with privacy regulations. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could be addressed to enhance protection against common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of explicit security policies or incident response information limits transparency on security governance. Overall, the site is secure for typical user interactions but would benefit from additional security hardening and documented policies.
Recommendations
Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to strengthen web security.
Publish explicit security and incident response policies to improve transparency and trust.
Enhance WHOIS registration transparency or provide company registration details on the website to improve legitimacy perception.
Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
Consider adding a terms of service page to clarify user rights and obligations.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built on WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and flexible content management system. It uses jQuery and integrates Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and eTracker for analytics and marketing. The site employs Borlabs Cookie for GDPR-compliant cookie management. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. The site uses external fonts from Google Fonts and hosts images and scripts on its own domain. There is no explicit hosting provider information detected. The technical setup supports a professional media publishing platform but could be improved with enhanced security headers and accessibility 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.
