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

Techland S.A. operates the official website for the Dying Light game franchise, providing comprehensive information about the game, downloadable content, community engagement, and purchase options. The company is a well-established game developer and publisher with a strong market presence in the gaming industry, particularly in the action-survival genre. The website targets gamers and fans of the franchise, offering a rich multimedia experience and multilingual support. Technically, the site is built on modern JavaScript libraries, uses Amazon AWS for hosting, and integrates Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot for analytics and privacy compliance. The site is mobile-optimized and performs well with good SEO and accessibility features. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS, uses domain transfer protection, and implements cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks DNSSEC and explicit security headers. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the website demonstrates a mature digital presence with strong branding and compliance, though it could improve by publishing explicit security policies and enabling DNSSEC.

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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  2. 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"

  3. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  4. 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

Techland S.A. holds a strong position in the digital entertainment sector, focusing on game development and distribution. The Dying Light franchise is a flagship product with a loyal fan base, supported by continuous content updates and community engagement through the Pilgrim Outpost hub. The business model centers on digital sales, DLC expansions, and community-driven content. The company leverages partnerships for support and community management, as evidenced by linked domains. The website reflects a professional approach to marketing and customer engagement, with clear calls to action and multilingual support to reach a global audience. Growth indicators include sustained content releases over nearly a decade and integration with major gaming platforms like Steam, Epic, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security posture with mandatory HTTPS, domain transfer lock, and cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options represents areas for enhancement. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, which could limit transparency and preparedness perception. The use of reputable hosting and third-party services like Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot is positive but requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be elevated by adopting additional best practices and publishing security-related policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish a dedicated security policy and incident response plan on the website.
  3. Add HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Consider providing direct contact information for security incidents (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email addresses).
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy and security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based front end with Swiper.js for interactive elements and integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics and Cookiebot for cookie consent management. Hosting is provided via Amazon AWS, indicated by the AWS DNS servers. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and includes multilingual support with hreflang tags. Performance is fast with preloading of key assets and lazy loading of images. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. The technical implementation is robust with minor opportunities for improvement in security headers and DNS configuration.
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.
