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

CANAL+ Sport is a media company specializing in broadcasting and streaming live sports events, primarily the English Premier League and WTA tennis tournaments, targeting Czech and Slovak audiences. The company operates subscription packages via Skylink Live TV, offering extensive sports content with Czech and Slovak commentary. The website reflects a professional media service with clear branding and user engagement through social media channels. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies including Google Tag Manager, Cookiebot for consent management, Bootstrap for responsive design, and integrates Twitter widgets for live social media content. The site is mobile optimized and performs well with good SEO practices. Security-wise, HTTPS is enforced and cookie consent is implemented, but the absence of security headers and lack of published privacy and terms policies indicate areas for improvement. WHOIS data is unavailable, which limits domain trust assessment, but the website content and contact information support legitimacy. Overall, the site is a credible sports media platform with moderate to good security posture and privacy compliance, suitable for general audiences.

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

6 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

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

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

CANAL+ Sport holds a strong position in the Czech and Slovak sports broadcasting market, leveraging exclusive rights to popular sports leagues and tournaments. Their business model is subscription-based, offering tiered packages with varying channel counts and pricing. The company benefits from the backing of CANAL+ Luxembourg S. à r.l., a recognized media entity. The target customers are sports enthusiasts seeking live coverage of football and tennis with local language commentary. The website's integration with Skylink Live TV indicates a partnership ecosystem that enhances distribution. Marketing efforts include social media engagement and promotional discounts. The lack of visible privacy and security policies may pose compliance risks but does not currently affect user trust significantly. Growth opportunities exist in expanding digital offerings and enhancing transparency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security posture with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms in place, reflecting awareness of GDPR requirements. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are published, limiting transparency and readiness for security incidents. The WHOIS data absence raises questions about domain registration transparency but does not directly indicate malicious intent. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, with room for improvement in policy publication, header implementation, and incident preparedness to align with best practices and regulatory expectations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the website footer.
  2. Implement and configure essential security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection.
  3. Establish and publicize an incident response plan and vulnerability disclosure policy with dedicated contact channels.
  4. Improve accessibility features to meet recognized standards and enhance user experience for all visitors.
  5. Monitor and verify domain WHOIS registration details to ensure transparency and trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including Bootstrap for responsive design, Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing, Cookiebot for cookie consent management, and Twitter widgets for social media integration. The CMS used is ISSA, which serves the content efficiently with fast load times and good mobile optimization. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, the site lacks some security headers and explicit privacy and terms policies, which are technical debts that should be addressed. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and performant user experience but requires enhancements in security and compliance documentation.
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.
