Risk levelMedium

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

ADticket operates as a German online ticket sales platform specializing in concerts, festivals, comedy, sports, and classical events. The website presents a professional and user-friendly interface with a broad event catalog targeting general audiences interested in entertainment. The technical infrastructure leverages modern JavaScript frameworks including React and Swiper.js, hosted on Amazon AWS, and integrates a consent management platform (Usercentrics) for GDPR compliance. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and basic security best practices implemented, though some security headers and explicit privacy policies are missing. Overall, the site is trustworthy and functional but could improve transparency and compliance documentation.

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. 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

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

ADticket holds a strong market position in the German ticketing sector, offering original tickets directly from event organizers. Its business model centers on e-commerce ticket sales with a focus on diverse event categories. The platform targets a broad demographic of event-goers in Germany, leveraging partnerships with event providers. The use of AWS hosting and modern web technologies indicates a mature digital infrastructure. However, the absence of explicit privacy policies and contact information for security incidents suggests areas for operational enhancement. The company appears medium-sized with consistent branding and a clear value proposition in the entertainment e-commerce space.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS and consent management for cookies and tracking. Google Tag Manager is used with ads data redaction enabled by default, indicating privacy-conscious configurations. However, the lack of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and absence of a security.txt file or incident response contacts represent gaps in security maturity. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Compliance with GDPR is partially indicated via the Usercentrics CMP but lacks full transparency due to missing privacy policy documentation. Overall, the security posture is moderate to good but could be strengthened with additional policies and headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the homepage.
  2. Implement and serve a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures and incident reporting.
  3. Add explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
  4. Provide clear contact information including phone numbers, emails, and physical addresses for customer and security inquiries.
  5. Enhance advertising transparency by detailing data retention policies and cookie usage in the consent mechanism.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including React for interactive search, Swiper.js for carousels, and Usercentrics for consent management. Hosting is on AWS, supported by AWS DNS servers. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and preconnect hints to improve speed. Mobile optimization and accessibility are good, with responsive design and keyboard navigation support. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph data, and canonical links. However, the CMS is not explicitly identified, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. There is room for improvement in security headers and explicit privacy documentation.
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.
