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

Atlanta United FC operates a professional and comprehensive website serving as the official digital presence for the Major League Soccer club. The site offers extensive content including news, schedules, ticket sales, fan engagement, and merchandise retail, targeting soccer fans and community supporters. The website demonstrates a mature digital infrastructure with modern technologies such as React, Snowplow Analytics, and Google Tag Manager, ensuring a fast, mobile-optimized, and accessible user experience. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement and security headers, complemented by a GDPR-compliant privacy and cookie policy with consent mechanisms. However, the absence of public WHOIS data and lack of explicit security and incident response policies slightly reduce trust and business credibility. Overall, the site is professional, secure, and well-positioned in its market segment.

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

1 finding 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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

Atlanta United FC holds a significant position in the sports and media industry as a leading MLS club. The business model revolves around fan engagement, ticket sales, and merchandise, supported by a strong brand and official partnerships such as MLS Store. The website's multilingual support via a Spanish subdomain and subsidiary team site (Atlanta United 2) indicates strategic market segmentation and growth. The digital presence leverages advanced analytics and marketing tools to optimize fan outreach and commercial activities. While the business information is clear and consistent with the sports sector, the lack of visible direct contact details and WHOIS transparency suggests room for improvement in corporate communication and trust-building.

Security posture

The website exhibits a robust security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. The use of Content Security Policy and absence of exposed sensitive data indicate adherence to best practices. However, the lack of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure channel limits transparency and preparedness perception. No vulnerabilities or suspicious scripts were detected in the analyzed content. Enhancing security documentation and providing clear incident contacts would strengthen the security culture and stakeholder confidence.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Add clear and verified contact information including security and business contacts.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and tracking tools for security risks.
  5. Enhance WHOIS data visibility or ensure domain registration details are publicly accessible.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern JavaScript stack with React and jQuery, supported by advanced analytics via Snowplow and Google Tag Manager. It uses Google Publisher Tags for advertising and CookiePro for consent management, indicating a mature marketing and compliance infrastructure. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile devices, with responsive design and accessibility considerations. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting details are not explicitly available but the use of major CDNs and cloud services implies reliable infrastructure. Technical debt appears low, and the site is well-maintained with up-to-date libraries and scripts.
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.
