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

Courtside 1891 is a specialized media platform offering live and on-demand basketball streaming services globally, focusing on major basketball competitions such as FIBA Eurobasket, Asia Cup, AmeriCup, and AfroBasket. The platform targets basketball enthusiasts and sports viewers, providing subscription-based and freemium content models. The website demonstrates a consistent brand presence with professional design and clear navigation, supporting a medium-sized operation in the media sector. Technically, the site employs modern web technologies including service workers for PWA capabilities, lazy loading for images, and integrates analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager and Hotjar. The presence of a Content Security Policy and HTTPS indicates a good baseline security posture, although additional security headers could enhance protection. Cookie consent is managed via OneTrust, reflecting attention to privacy compliance, though explicit privacy and terms of service documents are not clearly linked. Security-wise, the platform shows a mature approach with encrypted connections and some security best practices, but lacks visible incident response contacts or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust assessment, which slightly reduces overall credibility. No adult or questionable content is present, making the site safe for general audiences. Overall, Courtside 1891 presents a solid digital presence with room for improvement in transparency and security policy publication. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing clear privacy and terms policies, and providing contact channels for security incidents to strengthen trust and compliance.

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

No critical or high findings. These medium findings are worth fixing next.

  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.

    • Medium

      Missing X-XSS-Protection header

      Legacy XSS protection (deprecated but still recommended)

      What to do: Add "X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block"

    • Medium

      Missing Permissions-Policy header

      Controls browser features and APIs

      What to do: Implement a Permissions-Policy to restrict feature access

      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Permissions-Policy: accelerometer=(), autoplay=(), camera=(), cross-origin-isolated=(),…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Medium

      Privacy policy may not be GDPR compliant

      Privacy policy lacks explicit GDPR compliance elements

      What to do: Update privacy policy to explicitly address GDPR requirements and user rights

  3. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Medium

      DMARC not enforcing

      DMARC policy is set to "none"

      What to do: Gradually move to "quarantine" then "reject" policy

    • Medium

      No DKIM record found

      DKIM adds cryptographic signatures to emails

      What to do: Configure DKIM with your email provider

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

Courtside 1891 operates in the niche sports streaming market, focusing exclusively on basketball content from international competitions. Its business model leverages subscription and freemium access, targeting basketball fans worldwide. The platform's competitive advantage lies in its specialized content offering and integration with FIBA events, positioning it as a go-to source for basketball live streams and highlights. Revenue streams likely include subscription fees and advertising partnerships. The company appears to maintain a moderate digital footprint with partnerships for content delivery and analytics. Growth indicators include active content updates and integration of modern web technologies. However, the lack of publicly available company registration and contact information may limit some partnership opportunities and user trust.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and implements a Content Security Policy, which are strong indicators of a secure baseline. Use of service workers and cookie consent mechanisms further demonstrate attention to security and privacy. However, the absence of additional security headers such as Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options suggests room for improvement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. The lack of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure program indicates a gap in security transparency and readiness. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, suitable for a media streaming platform but requiring enhancements to meet higher compliance and trust standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the main navigation or footer.
  2. Add additional security headers including Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen protection.
  3. Establish and publicize a security incident response process and contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email addresses).
  4. Create and maintain a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Verify and publish domain WHOIS information or use a reputable privacy protection service with clear justification to improve trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with JavaScript frameworks, service workers for PWA functionality, and lazy loading for performance optimization. Integration with Google Tag Manager and Hotjar indicates active user behavior tracking and analytics. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible, with SVG icons and responsive images. However, the hosting provider and CMS are not explicitly identified. Performance appears moderate with room for improvement in loading speed and caching strategies. The technical debt is low based on current observations, but the absence of some security headers and privacy documents suggests areas for modernization and compliance enhancement.
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.
