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

Business Travel Show Europe is a prominent event organizer specializing in business travel trade shows and conferences in Europe, primarily hosted at ExCeL London. The website serves as a platform to promote the event, provide exhibitor and visitor information, and facilitate registrations and enquiries. The technical infrastructure is built on a modern CMS (SHOWOFF by ASP.events) with integration of multiple third-party analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Crazy Egg, and RudderLabs. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with a professional design and clear navigation. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, though some security headers are not explicitly detected. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain is a notable concern, impacting domain legitimacy verification. Overall, the website is functional, professional, and serves its business purpose effectively, but would benefit from enhanced transparency in domain registration and security policies.

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

2 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 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. 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

The Business Travel Show Europe holds a leading position in the European business travel event market, targeting travel professionals, buyers, and exhibitors. Its business model revolves around event organization, sponsorship, and networking facilitation. The company leverages partnerships and a strong social media presence to maintain market visibility. Revenue streams likely include exhibitor fees, sponsorships, and hosted buyer programs. The website content and structure indicate a medium-sized enterprise focused on transportation and hospitality sectors. The lack of explicit company registration or VAT information on the site limits deeper business verification. The event's scale and professional presentation suggest a stable and reputable operation within its niche.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security posture with enforced HTTPS and a comprehensive cookie consent banner powered by OneTrust, indicating GDPR compliance efforts. However, explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not visibly implemented, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. No direct contact information for security incidents or vulnerability disclosure is provided, and no security.txt file is found. The use of multiple third-party scripts necessitates regular security audits to mitigate risks. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, with room for improvement in header implementation and incident response transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Obtain and display verified WHOIS domain registration information to strengthen domain legitimacy and trust.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure they do not introduce vulnerabilities or privacy risks.
  5. Enhance contact information availability by providing verified company emails and phone numbers for business and support inquiries.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the SHOWOFF CMS by ASP.events, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery and ScriptJS. It integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Crazy Egg, RudderLabs, and OneTrust for cookie consent management. The site loads asynchronously many scripts to optimize performance, though the overall loading speed is moderate. Mobile optimization and accessibility features are well implemented, including skip links and ARIA roles. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Hosting details are not explicitly found, but CDN usage is evident. The technical stack is modern and suitable for an event marketing platform, with opportunities to improve security headers and reduce third-party script dependencies for enhanced security.
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.
