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

Digital Control Room is a specialized company providing automated compliance and digital asset monitoring solutions primarily for the pharmaceutical and life sciences sectors. Their platform enables clients to discover and audit digital content across multiple brands and languages, ensuring regulatory compliance and reducing risk. The company positions itself as a trusted partner for global oversight of distributed digital content, supported by client testimonials from top pharma companies and recognized by awards such as The Kings Awards for Enterprise Innovation. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using modern plugins like Breakdance and Yoast SEO, with jQuery and Swiper.js for interactive elements. The site is well-optimized for SEO and mobile devices, offering a professional user experience. Security measures include HTTPS enforcement and cookie consent management, though there is room for improvement in implementing additional security headers and a dedicated security.txt file. The security posture is solid with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data, and privacy compliance is well addressed with comprehensive policies and consent mechanisms. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy and trustworthiness, warranting further verification. Overall, the site demonstrates a mature digital presence with strong business credibility but should enhance transparency around domain registration and security policies.

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

3 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 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. 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
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 26 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography
      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates

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

Digital Control Room operates in a niche market focused on compliance automation for pharma and life sciences companies. Their business model revolves around providing SaaS solutions and consulting services that help clients maintain regulatory compliance for digital content globally. The company leverages partnerships and endorsements from industry leaders, enhancing its market position. Revenue streams likely include subscription fees and professional services. The target customers are compliance managers, digital asset teams, and pharma companies seeking risk mitigation. Growth indicators include recent awards and multiple client testimonials. The company maintains a professional online presence with clear contact channels and a vulnerability disclosure program, indicating a proactive approach to security and customer trust.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and use of security plugins. Cookie consent is managed with granular user controls, supporting GDPR compliance. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive information were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security suggests room for improvement. The presence of a vulnerability response program is a positive indicator of incident readiness. There is no dedicated security contact email visible, which could enhance incident response. Overall, the security posture is strong for a small enterprise but could benefit from enhanced header policies and formalized security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden the website against common attacks.
  2. Publish a security.txt file at the root domain to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve transparency.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to improve trust and legitimacy perception.
  4. Establish a dedicated security contact email (e.g., security@digitalcontrolroom.com) to streamline incident reporting and response.
  5. Conduct regular third-party script audits to ensure no vulnerable or deprecated libraries are in use.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using the Breakdance theme and several plugins including Yoast SEO for search engine optimization and All In One WP Security and Firewall for security enhancements. The front-end uses jQuery 3.7.1 and Swiper.js for interactive galleries and sliders. The site loads with moderate performance and is highly optimized for mobile devices, providing excellent accessibility and navigation clarity. SEO is well implemented with comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph data, and JSON-LD structured data. No hosting provider details were explicitly found. The technical stack is current and well-maintained, though adding HTTP security headers would further improve the security posture.
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.
