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

AV Alliance operates as a global network of premium audio visual and event technology companies, offering equipment rental and event production services across 56 countries and over 115 locations. The company positions itself as a leader in providing state-of-the-art technology solutions for live, virtual, and hybrid events, targeting event organizers and corporate clients worldwide. The website reflects a professional and modern digital presence, leveraging WordPress CMS, multimedia content, and SEO best practices to engage its audience effectively. Technically, the site is hosted with reputable providers, uses HTTPS, and integrates Google Tag Manager and LinkedIn Insight for analytics and marketing. Security posture is solid with domain protection flags, though DNSSEC is not enabled and security headers are not explicitly detected. Privacy compliance is partial, with a cookie consent mechanism present but no visible privacy policy or terms of service pages in the provided content. Contact is primarily via a contact form, with no direct emails or phone numbers found. Overall, the site demonstrates a mature digital infrastructure suitable for its business model but could improve transparency and security practices.

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. 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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

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

AV Alliance's market positioning as a premium global AV network gives it a competitive advantage by offering localized expertise combined with global reach. Its business model focuses on membership and partnership with AV companies, enabling a broad service offering including live event production, hybrid event solutions, and live streaming. The network's presence in multiple countries and locations indicates a scalable and diversified revenue stream. The website's content and structure support lead generation and partner discovery, targeting event professionals and corporate clients. The use of multimedia and structured data enhances search visibility and user engagement. Strategic partnerships, such as the intranet domain, suggest a collaborative ecosystem. Growth indicators include the number of members, countries, and yearly projects highlighted on the site. However, the absence of direct contact details and limited published policies may impact trust for some users.

Security posture

The website benefits from HTTPS encryption and domain registration protections that prevent unauthorized transfers or deletions. However, the lack of DNSSEC implementation is a security gap that could expose DNS spoofing risks. No explicit security headers (e.g., Content Security Policy, HSTS) were detected, which could improve protection against common web attacks. The site uses third-party analytics and marketing scripts, which require careful privacy management. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is published, limiting transparency in security practices. The absence of direct contact emails for security or abuse reporting is a weakness. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced by implementing DNSSEC, security headers, and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to secure DNS queries and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and verify HTTP security headers such as CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options.
  3. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the homepage.
  4. Add a security.txt file and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  5. Provide direct contact information for security incidents and abuse reporting to build trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern theme and uses jQuery and various JavaScript libraries for UI and analytics integration. It leverages Google Tag Manager and LinkedIn Insight for marketing and tracking. Hosting and DNS are managed through Amazon Registrar and Cloudflare, respectively, providing reliable infrastructure. The site includes rich multimedia content such as videos and interactive maps, enhancing user engagement but potentially impacting load times. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO is supported by Yoast SEO plugin and structured data in JSON-LD format. Accessibility features are basic and could be improved. Overall, the technical implementation is solid with room for performance and security enhancements.
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.
