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

5 findings 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 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  3. 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

bookingkit operates in the hospitality sector, targeting operators of tours, activities, and attractions across Europe. Its SaaS business model focuses on providing an all-in-one platform that drives direct bookings, syndicates experiences across multiple marketing channels, and centralizes administration tasks. The company benefits from strong market positioning as a leading European solution, supported by native-language customer support and German engineering standards. The partnership ecosystem includes integrations with major OTAs like GetYourGuide, Viator, and Musement, enhancing distribution reach. Growth indicators include a long domain history since 2009 and active content marketing via a regularly updated blog. Strategic observations highlight bookingkit's emphasis on automation, customer experience, and compliance, which are key competitive advantages.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain status flags preventing unauthorized domain modifications. No DNSSEC is enabled, which is a potential area for improvement. The site uses multiple third-party scripts for analytics and marketing, all integrated with consent mechanisms to comply with privacy regulations. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy or incident response contact reduces transparency in security governance. The company should consider publishing a security policy and vulnerability disclosure program to enhance trust and readiness. Overall, the security practices align well with industry standards for SaaS platforms in the hospitality sector.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate risks from external dependencies.
  5. Add additional security headers such as Content-Security-Policy to reduce attack surface.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery and various marketing and analytics integrations such as Facebook Pixel, Hotjar, and HubSpot. The site is hosted with Amazon Registrar, indicating likely AWS infrastructure. Performance is fast with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is well implemented with comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. The site uses WPML for multilingual support, enhancing global reach. Technical risks are minimal, but reliance on multiple third-party scripts requires ongoing monitoring. The infrastructure supports scalability and robust user engagement, suitable for a SaaS platform serving a diverse customer base.
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.
