StarDream Cruises · Transportation · N/a

Low risk. 2 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view and SSL/TLS.

Security score

77/100

Risk levelLow

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

StarDream Cruises operates a luxury cruise vacation website offering family, Caribbean, and Mediterranean cruises. The website is professionally designed using modern web technologies including Angular framework and integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and TikTok Pixel. The hosting infrastructure appears to be on Amazon AWS DNS services. However, the website lacks visible privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies, which are critical for compliance and user trust. No explicit contact information or forms were found in the analyzed HTML content, limiting direct communication channels. The domain WHOIS data raises concerns due to a creation date set in the future, which may indicate data errors or potential registration irregularities. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but missing DNSSEC and security headers. Overall, the website is functional and visually appealing but requires improvements in privacy compliance, transparency, and domain legitimacy verification.

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

2 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.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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

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

StarDream Cruises targets the luxury cruise market segment, focusing on family and destination-specific cruises. The business model is centered on providing premium cruise experiences with onboard entertainment and curated travel deals. The multilingual website indicates a global target audience. The company appears to be a medium-sized entity founded recently (2025 per WHOIS data), though domain registration inconsistencies suggest further validation is needed. The lack of visible business registration or certification information limits assessment of corporate credibility. Marketing efforts leverage major ad and tracking platforms, indicating an active digital marketing strategy. No partner or subsidiary domains were identified in the content.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No forms or input fields were detected, minimizing attack surface from input-based vulnerabilities. The embedded third-party tracking scripts increase privacy risks and require proper cookie consent mechanisms, which are currently missing. The domain registration data inconsistency is a notable risk factor affecting trust. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure information are absent, indicating limited preparedness for security incidents. Overall, the security posture is moderate but can be significantly improved by addressing privacy compliance and domain legitimacy.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement a cookie consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations.
  3. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security.
  4. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  5. Verify and correct domain registration data to ensure legitimacy and trust.
  6. Provide clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers.
  7. Establish and publish incident response and vulnerability disclosure procedures.
  8. Review and minimize third-party tracking scripts to reduce privacy risks.
  9. Improve accessibility features to enhance user experience for all users.
  10. Regularly audit website for security vulnerabilities and compliance adherence.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Angular framework with modern front-end technologies and uses Google Fonts for typography. Hosting is supported by Amazon AWS DNS infrastructure. The site integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and TikTok Pixel, indicating a mature digital marketing setup. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization evident. However, the absence of CMS identification suggests a custom or proprietary platform. No forms or interactive input elements were found in the analyzed HTML snippet. SEO is supported by meta tags and canonical links. The site lacks advanced security headers and DNSSEC, which are recommended for modern web applications. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but can benefit from enhanced security and privacy features.
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.
