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

Capacity is a professional media company providing news, insights, events, and market intelligence focused on the connectivity and digital infrastructure sectors such as telecoms, data centres, and subsea networks. The website positions itself as an established information source for industry professionals and businesses. The technical infrastructure is built on WordPress CMS with SEO optimization via Yoast and uses multiple third-party marketing and tracking tools including Google Tag Manager, Marketo, and StackAdapt. Hosting appears to be supported by Microsoft Azure DNS services. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enforced and domain registration locks enabled, but lacks DNSSEC and visible security headers. Privacy compliance is weak due to absence of explicit privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but could improve in privacy transparency and security best 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

7 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 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, Google APIs, Google Ads

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

Capacity operates in the media sector serving the telecommunications and digital infrastructure industries. Its business model revolves around content provision, event hosting, and market intelligence services targeting industry professionals. The domain age of over 14 years supports its established market presence. The company leverages partnerships with marketing and advertising platforms to monetize and promote its services. Social media presence on Facebook and Twitter supports audience engagement. The lack of visible contact information and privacy policies suggests areas for operational improvement. No suspicious or fraudulent indicators were found in domain registration or website content.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and has domain status locks that prevent unauthorized domain transfers or deletions, indicating good domain security hygiene. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which could expose DNS to spoofing risks. No security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS were detected, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. The site uses multiple third-party tracking scripts, increasing the attack surface and privacy risks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, limiting transparency. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced by implementing DNSSEC, security headers, and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details and consent mechanisms.
  4. Add clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for business and security incident reporting.
  5. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and trust.

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and SEO-optimized platform. It uses multiple marketing and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager, Marketo Munchkin, StackAdapt, Mouseflow, and Feathr, which provide extensive tracking and retargeting capabilities. Hosting is supported by Microsoft Azure DNS infrastructure. The site is mobile optimized and has good design and navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, likely impacted by multiple external scripts. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No broken elements or errors were detected in the provided content. Technical debt appears low but security enhancements are recommended.
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.
