High risk. 21 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view, Network security and 2 other checks.

Security score

45/100

Risk levelHigh

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

The website tartu.ee is currently inaccessible due to a Cloudflare Turnstile security challenge page that requires human verification before access. The domain is registered to Haridus- ja Teadusministeerium (EENet), an Estonian government educational and research network, consistent with the domain's representation of the city of Tartu. Due to the WAF challenge, no substantive website content, contact information, or policies are accessible for analysis. The technical infrastructure relies on Cloudflare services for security and performance. The security posture is limited by the lack of DNSSEC and absence of visible security headers, but the domain registration is legitimate and consistent with the entity. Privacy and cookie policies are not found, indicating compliance gaps. Overall, the website cannot be fully assessed until the WAF challenge is passed.

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

21 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

  2. Network security

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

The domain tartu.ee is managed by an official Estonian government entity focused on education and research networking. The website likely serves municipal or governmental functions for the city of Tartu. The domain age and registrant information support a stable and legitimate presence. However, due to the current access restrictions, no detailed business model, services, or market positioning can be determined. The reliance on Cloudflare for security and performance is evident, but no partner or subsidiary domains are identified. The lack of visible contact or policy information limits the assessment of customer engagement and compliance maturity.

Security posture

The website is protected by Cloudflare's WAF and Turnstile captcha, indicating a proactive security measure against automated threats. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers reduces the overall security robustness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data are visible due to the blocked content. The lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests limited transparency and readiness. Compliance with GDPR and other regulations cannot be confirmed. The security score is low due to these gaps and the inability to analyze the full site content.

Recommendations

  1. Implement DNSSEC to enhance domain name system security.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  3. Provide clear contact information including security incident response channels.
  4. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden the website.
  5. Ensure the website content is accessible without excessive WAF challenges to allow proper user and automated access.
Site observations

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Cloudflare services including Turnstile captcha and CDN for security and performance. The HTML content is minimal and serves only as a challenge page, lacking metadata, structured data, or SEO elements. No CMS or frameworks are detected. Mobile optimization and accessibility are basic due to the minimal content. The hosting provider is Cloudflare, which offers robust infrastructure but the lack of DNSSEC and security headers indicates room for improvement. The site performance and user experience cannot be fully evaluated due to the access block.
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.
