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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  2. 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"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

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 agency operates as a government entity in the transportation sector, focusing on road infrastructure development, traffic management, and public information dissemination. Its business model is non-commercial, funded by the government, and aimed at public service. The website targets multiple audiences including private drivers, commercial transport operators, local residents, and professionals in the road sector. The presence of detailed project information, legal resources, and traffic updates indicates a comprehensive service offering. The agency leverages partnerships with external suppliers for infrastructure projects, as evidenced by links to procurement portals. The digital ecosystem includes social media engagement and web analytics for continuous improvement. The lack of WHOIS transparency is a minor gap but does not detract from the agency's established market position as a national authority.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a strong security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented, reducing common web vulnerabilities. The use of a consent management platform (Monsido) indicates attention to privacy and compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure program limits transparency and may impact stakeholder trust. There is no visible security.txt file or dedicated security contact information. Overall, the site is secure for public use but could improve by publishing formal security governance documents and contact channels for security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Provide contact details for a data protection officer or security incident response team.
  4. Enhance transparency by including WHOIS domain registration details or linking to official domain registries.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain GDPR compliance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including React and Next.js for frontend rendering and Drupal as a headless CMS backend. This architecture supports fast loading times, mobile responsiveness, and good SEO optimization. The site uses Webpack for bundling and Monsido for analytics and consent management. The presence of multiple asynchronously loaded JavaScript chunks indicates modular design. Accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels are implemented, enhancing usability. No major technical debt or outdated technologies were detected. Hosting details are not explicit, but the site uses HTTPS with strong SSL configuration. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust and well-suited for a government digital service platform.
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.
