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

DR is Denmark's national public service media company, offering a comprehensive range of news, television, radio, and podcast services primarily targeting the Danish public. The website www.dr.dk serves as a central hub for accessing DR's latest news, live broadcasts, and on-demand content. DR holds a leading market position as the primary public broadcaster in Denmark, funded through public means and committed to providing trustworthy and timely information. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including React and Next.js frameworks, supported by analytics and consent management tools such as Segment Analytics and Cookiebot. The site demonstrates strong digital maturity with fast performance, mobile optimization, and good accessibility features. Structured data and meta tags are well implemented to enhance SEO and user experience. From a security perspective, DR's website enforces HTTPS, employs multiple security headers, and integrates secure login mechanisms. Privacy compliance is robust, with clear privacy and cookie policies and active consent management. However, explicit incident response contacts and vulnerability disclosure policies are not publicly evident, representing areas for improvement. Overall, DR's website presents a professional, secure, and user-friendly platform with high trustworthiness. Strategic enhancements in transparency around security incident handling and terms of service could further strengthen its compliance and user confidence.

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

4 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

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

DR operates as a public service broadcaster in the media sector, serving the Danish population with news and entertainment content. Its business model is based on public funding, focusing on delivering impartial and comprehensive media services. DR's competitive advantage lies in its established reputation, extensive content offerings, and strong brand recognition in Denmark. The company targets a broad audience including general news consumers, TV and radio listeners, and podcast audiences. DR's digital presence is supported by partnerships with analytics and advertising providers, enabling monetization through advertising while maintaining public service obligations. Growth indicators include continuous content updates and live coverage of major events. The partnership ecosystem includes advertising networks and consent management providers, supporting operational efficiency and compliance.

Security posture

DR's website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and secure login implementations. The presence of a cookie consent mechanism aligns with GDPR requirements, and privacy policies are detailed and accessible. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the absence of a publicly available incident response contact or vulnerability disclosure policy limits transparency in security incident management. Compliance with GDPR is evident, but further enhancements in security communication and disclosure would benefit overall security culture and readiness. The website's security score is high, reflecting strong adherence to best practices with minor gaps in incident response visibility.

Recommendations

  1. Publish explicit incident response and security contact information to improve transparency and user trust.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Consider adding a clear and accessible terms of service page to clarify user rights and obligations.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance user education on privacy and security practices through visible notices or dedicated sections.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack featuring React and Next.js, enabling server-side rendering and efficient client-side interactivity. Integration with Segment Analytics and Google Tag Manager facilitates robust data collection and marketing analytics. Cookiebot manages user consent, ensuring compliance with privacy regulations. The site demonstrates fast loading times and excellent mobile responsiveness, supported by optimized images and preconnect hints to key asset domains. Accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels are implemented, enhancing usability for assistive technologies. The technical infrastructure appears well-maintained with no significant technical debt or performance bottlenecks detected. Opportunities exist to further document and automate security incident handling and vulnerability management.
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.
