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

Creative Artists Agency (CAA) is a leading global talent and sports agency founded in 1975, specializing in entertainment, sports, and brand representation. The company offers a broad range of services including talent management, brand consulting, live event booking, and investment banking. Their website reflects a mature enterprise with a professional design, clear navigation, and comprehensive business information targeting entertainment and sports professionals as well as brands. The presence of multiple global office locations and contact details underscores their extensive market reach. Technically, the website is built on Drupal CMS and leverages modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Lodash, alongside Google Tag Manager for analytics and OneTrust for cookie consent management. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with good SEO practices evident. However, some security headers are not explicitly detected, and no dedicated security policy or incident response contacts are published, which could be improved. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS implied and cookie consent mechanisms in place, but the absence of explicit security headers and vulnerability disclosure reduces the security maturity score. The WHOIS data is unavailable or protected, which slightly impacts trustworthiness, though the website content and business information strongly support legitimacy. Overall, CAA's website demonstrates a high level of professionalism and compliance with privacy regulations, making it a trustworthy platform for its audience. Strategic improvements in security transparency and WHOIS data availability would further enhance trust and security posture.

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. 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

  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 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

CAA holds a dominant position in the media and entertainment industry as a premier talent and sports agency. Their business model revolves around comprehensive representation and business development services for clients in entertainment, sports, and brand sectors. Revenue streams likely include commissions from talent deals, brand partnerships, consulting fees, and event bookings. The company targets high-profile clients and brands, supported by a global office network. The website's structured data and social media presence indicate a well-established partnership ecosystem and a focus on digital engagement. Growth indicators include diversified service offerings and geographic expansion. The absence of parent or subsidiary company data suggests CAA operates as a standalone entity or under a private ownership structure.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR, reflecting a baseline security and privacy posture. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options indicates room for enhancement in defense-in-depth strategies. No explicit security policy or incident response contact information is published, which is a gap in transparency and readiness. The use of third-party scripts like Google Tag Manager and OneTrust is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, suitable for an enterprise but with opportunities for improvement in policy publication and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Verify and publish accurate WHOIS domain registration data to improve trust and legitimacy perception.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal CMS, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Lodash, and integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics and OneTrust for cookie consent management. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and accessibility features, with valid meta tags and SEO-friendly structure. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by multiple external scripts and rich content. The technical stack is mature and widely supported, but the absence of explicit security headers and incomplete WHOIS data represent technical risks. Opportunities exist to optimize loading times and enhance security configurations to reduce technical debt and improve resilience.
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.
