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.

Priority findings

10 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

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 school holds a regional position in vocational education, focusing on technical and agri-food sectors. Its business model is educational service provision with key offerings including various study programs, dual education, and extracurricular activities. The website reflects active community engagement and partnerships, evidenced by external links to educational platforms and social media. Growth indicators include regular news updates and participation in national competitions. The absence of commercial advertising and affiliate programs aligns with its non-commercial educational nature.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enforced and DNSSEC enabled, reducing risks of interception and DNS spoofing. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents a missed opportunity to harden against common web attacks. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present, which could delay mitigation of security issues. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be improved with standard best practices and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Create a security.txt file and provide incident response contact information to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  4. Regularly audit and update Joomla CMS and extensions to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization to improve user experience and discoverability.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Joomla CMS with Gantry 5 framework, a common and mature platform for content management. The presence of AddToAny social sharing and FontAwesome icons indicates standard modern web practices. The site is mobile optimized and has a clear navigation structure. Performance is moderate, likely due to CMS overhead and multiple news items. No advanced analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating a privacy-conscious approach. Hosting provider details are not explicit, but DNSSEC and HTTPS suggest a secure hosting environment. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and privacy compliance are recommended.
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.
