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

Attraction is a well-established Canadian media company specializing in the production, creation, and distribution of audiovisual content since 2002. Positioned as a major player in the North American entertainment industry, the company serves broadcasters and digital media platforms with a broad portfolio of services including television production, content creation, and international distribution. Their website reflects a professional and polished brand image, showcasing partnerships with numerous broadcasters and a clear presentation of contact information and corporate details. Technically, the website leverages modern web technologies such as SvelteKit and is hosted with a CMS likely based on Strapi. The site is fast, mobile-optimized, and SEO-friendly, with good accessibility features. The absence of cookie consent mechanisms and analytics scripts suggests a privacy-conscious approach or minimal tracking. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with excellent SSL configuration but lacks explicit security headers and incident response information. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The domain registration details are consistent with the business claims, showing a long-standing presence and legitimacy. Overall, Attraction's digital presence is strong, professional, and trustworthy, with minor recommendations to enhance security headers and privacy transparency to further improve compliance and user trust.

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

7 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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  3. 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

Attraction operates in the media sector with a focus on content production and distribution, targeting broadcasters and digital platforms in North America. Their business model revolves around creating and licensing audiovisual content, supported by partnerships with major broadcasters such as Netflix, Prime Video, and CBC Gem. The company benefits from a strong brand reputation and industry recognition, as evidenced by their award-winning status and extensive broadcaster network. Growth indicators include a diverse portfolio of broadcasters and active social media engagement. The company maintains offices in Montréal and Toronto, indicating a medium-sized operation with regional influence. Strategic partnerships and a focus on digital production position them well for evolving media consumption trends.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS and no visible security flaws or exposed sensitive information. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of a public security or incident response policy represent areas for improvement. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file was found, which could enhance transparency and trust. The site does not appear to use extensive tracking or analytics, reducing privacy risks. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be elevated by adopting additional best practices and formalizing incident response communications.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Add a publicly accessible vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Introduce a cookie policy and consent mechanism to align with privacy regulations and enhance user trust.
  4. Publish an incident response policy or contact channel dedicated to security issues to demonstrate preparedness and accountability.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable libraries are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern frontend technology SvelteKit, ensuring fast and reactive user experience. The use of Google Fonts and CSS assets is optimized with preconnect hints. The backend CMS appears to be Strapi, inferred from media URLs and provider metadata, which supports efficient content management. The site is mobile responsive with good accessibility features and SEO optimization through proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is fast with video background and optimized images. No legacy or vulnerable libraries were detected. Hosting details are not explicit but likely involve cloud services supporting Strapi. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and well-implemented with opportunities to enhance security configurations.
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.
