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 operates as a leading platform in the hospitality sector, connecting hosts and guests globally. Its business model is based on peer-to-peer short-term rentals and experiences, generating revenue through service fees. The Polish site is part of a broad international network, supporting over 220 countries and regions. The company targets a wide audience including leisure travelers, business travelers, and property owners. The platform's extensive localization and multi-language support demonstrate a mature global strategy. Partnerships with mapping providers and analytics services support operational efficiency and user engagement. The absence of direct contact details on the homepage suggests reliance on centralized customer support channels.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses CSRF tokens and content security policies for some third-party widgets, indicating a baseline security posture. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options suggests potential improvements. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The use of modern JavaScript frameworks and deferred script loading via Partytown indicates attention to performance and security. Privacy compliance is partial, with no clear cookie consent mechanism or privacy policy found in the provided HTML, which could pose compliance risks under GDPR. Incident response and security contact information are not evident, which is common for large platforms but could be improved for transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and clearly link comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Add explicit security headers (HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance browser security.
  3. Provide visible security incident response contact channels or abuse reporting mechanisms.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities and update accordingly.
  5. Enhance cookie consent mechanisms to ensure user awareness and compliance with privacy regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses React 18.3.1 as its primary frontend framework, supported by a suite of JavaScript libraries including D3.js for data visualization and mapping APIs from Google Maps, Mapbox, and Gaode. The use of Partytown for script offloading indicates a modern approach to performance optimization. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are integrated but analytics storage is denied by default, reflecting privacy-conscious defaults. The site is mobile optimized and accessible with semantic HTML and ARIA attributes. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph data, and JSON-LD structured data. No CMS or hosting provider details are explicitly found in the HTML. Performance is moderate with deferred script loading and optimized assets. Overall, the technical infrastructure reflects a mature, enterprise-grade web 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.
