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

Eastern Sun Tours and Safaris is a Tanzania-based tour operator specializing in safari and adventure travel services. Established in 2010, the company offers a range of services including wildlife safaris, Kilimanjaro climbing expeditions, Serengeti tours, and cultural experiences. The website positions the company as a premier operator with expert guides, targeting tourists interested in exploring Tanzania's natural and cultural treasures. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using Elementor, with integrations such as Google Site Kit for SEO and analytics. Hosting is provided by NameCheap, and the site uses HTTPS with a clientTransferProhibited domain status, indicating a stable and secure domain registration. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and security headers are missing, which are areas for improvement. The security posture is moderate, with no visible vulnerabilities but lacking advanced security configurations. Privacy compliance is weak, as no privacy or cookie policies are found, and no consent mechanisms are implemented. Contact information is not explicitly presented, which may affect user trust and compliance. Overall, the website is professional and content-rich but would benefit from enhanced security and privacy practices to improve 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

9 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

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

The company operates in the hospitality sector, focusing on safari and adventure tourism in Tanzania. Its business model revolves around providing customized travel experiences, leveraging Tanzania's rich wildlife and cultural heritage. The market position is that of a specialized, small-sized operator with a decade-long presence, which supports credibility and experience. The target audience includes international tourists seeking authentic safari adventures. The company maintains an active social media presence on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter, which supports marketing and customer engagement. The website content and structured data reflect a consistent brand image and professional approach. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries from the provided data. Revenue streams likely include tour bookings and related travel services. Growth indicators are not explicitly visible but the long domain age and content updates suggest ongoing operations.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, which is mandatory for secure communications. The domain status clientTransferProhibited adds a layer of domain security against unauthorized transfers. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which could expose the domain to DNS spoofing attacks. The absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces protection against common web attacks. No security policy or incident response information is provided, which limits transparency and preparedness. The site uses WordPress and Elementor, which require regular updates to mitigate vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended security headers, enabling DNSSEC, and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details and implement a cookie consent mechanism.
  4. Add clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer support and incident response.
  5. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate known vulnerabilities and improve security posture.

Performance is moderate, with some optimization opportunities. Mobile optimization is good, supported by responsive images and CSS. Accessibility is basic, with no advanced ARIA or accessibility features detected. SEO optimization is good, with proper meta tags, Open Graph tags, and structured data in JSON-LD format.

Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and security configurations to enhance overall technical maturity.
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.
