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

9 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

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

Ruskon kunta operates as a local government authority, focusing on public service delivery and community engagement. Its market position is stable as a small-sized municipal entity in Finland, with a business model centered on governance and public administration. The website targets residents, local businesses, and visitors, providing services ranging from employment support to environmental management and cultural activities. The partnership ecosystem includes regional municipalities and service providers, enhancing service delivery. Growth indicators include active community programs and digital service adoption. The website's content and structure support transparency and accessibility, reinforcing the municipality's commitment to open governance.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security maturity level with enforced HTTPS, DNSSEC, and cookie consent compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were found. The absence of explicit security headers like CSP and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not publicly visible, which could be enhanced to improve security culture and readiness. GDPR compliance is well addressed through privacy policies and consent management. Overall, the security posture supports the municipality's operational needs with moderate risk exposure.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and vulnerability disclosure page to enhance transparency and incident response readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update all WordPress plugins and themes to minimize vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance visibility of incident response contacts to facilitate timely reporting and handling of security issues.
  5. Continue improving accessibility and mobile optimization to ensure inclusive access for all residents.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages WordPress CMS with a suite of plugins for SEO, forms, events, and accessibility. Hosting utilizes Azure DNS services with DNSSEC enabled, ensuring DNS integrity. The front-end uses jQuery and modern JavaScript libraries for UI interactions and responsive design. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, particularly in image loading and script management. SEO is well implemented with Yoast SEO plugin and structured data in JSON-LD format. Accessibility features include font size controls and contrast toggling. Technical risks are low but could be further mitigated by enhancing security headers and conducting regular performance audits.
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.
