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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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"

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

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

The website positions Kuopion Energia as a key local energy information provider, leveraging digital content to engage its community. The business model appears to be informational and community-focused, likely supported by the municipal or regional energy company. The site’s content and tagging strategy indicate a focus on sustainability, energy efficiency, and local energy developments, appealing to environmentally conscious consumers and stakeholders. The presence on social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram supports community engagement and brand visibility. No direct commercial transactions or e-commerce features are evident, emphasizing the site’s role as a communication channel rather than a sales platform.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and a suite of security headers implemented, reducing risks of common web attacks. The absence of exposed sensitive data and the use of integrity attributes on some scripts further enhance security. However, the lack of a published security policy or vulnerability disclosure program limits transparency in security management. No incident response contacts or security-specific email addresses are provided, which could be improved to enhance trust and readiness. The cookie consent mechanism aligns with GDPR requirements, supporting privacy and data protection compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Provide explicit incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a solid technical foundation with Bootstrap 4 for responsive design, jQuery for DOM manipulation, and Slick Carousel and Masonry for dynamic content presentation. Google Fonts and Typekit provide typography enhancements. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and tracking, indicating a modern approach to data collection. Performance is moderate, with deferred loading of scripts and lazy loading of images improving user experience. The site is mobile optimized with a responsive menu and layout. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph tags, and canonical links. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with more ARIA attributes and keyboard navigation support.
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.
