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

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

      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

  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 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';…

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

Airbnb holds a leading market position in the hospitality sector as a pioneer in peer-to-peer short-term lodging and experiences. Its business model is based on connecting hosts with guests via an online platform, generating revenue through service fees. The company targets a broad audience including leisure and business travelers, as well as property owners seeking to monetize their spaces. The website's extensive localization and multi-language support indicate a global operational footprint. Strategic partnerships and integrations with major mapping and analytics providers enhance its service offerings. The absence of direct contact details and formal privacy disclosures in the HTML suggests these may be located elsewhere or require further inspection.

Security posture

The website exhibits a strong security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and use of CSRF tokens. The integration of Partytown for script isolation and Bugsnag for error monitoring reflects proactive security and stability measures. However, the lack of visible security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates potential gaps in transparency and readiness for security incidents. Compliance with GDPR is implied by localization and consent defaults in analytics but not explicitly documented in the provided content. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis.

Recommendations

  1. Publish and prominently link comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to enhance user trust and compliance.
  2. Provide clear and accessible contact information including security incident response channels.
  3. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate supply chain risks.
  5. Enhance transparency around data retention and user data handling practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React framework with extensive use of asynchronous script loading and advanced performance optimizations such as Partytown for third-party script isolation. It integrates multiple mapping services including Google Maps and Mapbox, and uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. Performance is fast with preloading of critical assets and efficient resource management. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting details are not explicit but likely cloud-based. The technical implementation supports a scalable and secure user experience suitable for a global enterprise.
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.
