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

4 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…
  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

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 demonstrates a mature digital presence with modern technologies such as Next.js and React, supported by analytics tools like Google Analytics and New Relic. Its partnership with domains like puhekaeestis.ee indicates a collaborative ecosystem for tourism promotion. The site uses multiple advertising networks and tracking pixels, balanced with a clear cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR. The absence of explicit contact information suggests a focus on informational content rather than direct customer service.

Security posture

The site enforces HTTPS and employs clientTransferProhibited status on its domain, indicating good domain security practices. Cookie consent and privacy policies are comprehensive and GDPR compliant. However, explicit security headers are not visibly present in the HTML, and no security or incident response policies are published. DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected, reflecting a solid security posture suitable for a public informational website.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing
  2. Implement and publish explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting
  5. Enhance contact information availability for business and security inquiries to improve user trust and compliance

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React/Next.js framework, ensuring fast performance and excellent mobile optimization. Hosting is managed via AWS infrastructure, with DNS hosted on Amazon's DNS servers. The site uses Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot for analytics and consent management, respectively. Performance is optimized with preloading and deferred scripts. Accessibility and SEO are well addressed through proper meta tags and structured data. No technical debt or legacy technologies were detected, indicating a well-maintained and modern technical infrastructure.
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.
