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. 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

  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

  3. 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 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';…

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

Clara.es holds a strong position in the Spanish women's media market, leveraging RBA's brand and resources. Its business model combines advertising revenue from multiple ad networks and subscription sales via a partner domain. The site targets adult women interested in fashion and wellness, providing curated content and expert advice. The presence of multiple social media channels and external partnerships indicates a broad ecosystem supporting audience engagement and monetization. Growth potential lies in expanding digital subscriptions and enhancing privacy compliance to build trust.

Security posture

The site employs HTTPS and integrates a consent management platform (Didomi) to manage user privacy preferences, reflecting GDPR awareness. Security headers are partially detected but could be improved with explicit CSP and HSTS headers. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML. However, the absence of visible privacy policy and incident response contacts suggests room for compliance and transparency improvements. Regular audits of third-party scripts and ad networks are recommended to maintain security.

Recommendations

  1. Publish clear and accessible privacy policy and terms of service pages linked from the homepage.
  2. Enhance security headers by adding Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Provide explicit contact information for security incidents and data protection inquiries.
  4. Conduct regular third-party script audits to mitigate supply chain risks.
  5. Improve accessibility features to comply with standards and enhance user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a mature ASP.NET Web Forms backend with a custom or proprietary CMS likely managed by RBA. Frontend technologies include JWPlayer for video, Prebid.js and Amazon A9 for programmatic advertising, and Didomi for consent management. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tags. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and preloading of fonts and scripts. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization in script loading and caching. SEO is well addressed with meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic and could be improved.
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.
