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

Easyfairs is a large international event organizer specializing in exhibitions, trade shows, and conferences primarily in Belgium and neighboring countries. The company emphasizes sustainability, community engagement, and delivering high-quality live event experiences. Their website reflects a mature digital presence built on WordPress with modern technologies and strong privacy compliance. Security posture is solid with HTTPS, security headers, and anti-bot measures, though lacking a dedicated security policy or incident response contact. The absence of WHOIS data is a concern but the professional site content and branding mitigate immediate trust issues. Overall, Easyfairs presents as a credible and established business with room for improvement in transparency and security disclosures.

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. 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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 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';…

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

Easyfairs holds a top 20 global position in event organization, with a business model focused on multi-format live events and venue management. Their target customers include business professionals and communities seeking networking and industry insights. The company demonstrates growth through acquisitions and awards, signaling competitive advantage and market leadership. Their sustainability initiatives and people-first culture are key differentiators. Partnerships with service providers and a dedicated career portal support operational scale and talent acquisition.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and implements multiple security headers, uses Google reCAPTCHA for form protection, and includes a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the lack of a public security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure program limits transparency and preparedness perception. Adding these elements would enhance trust and readiness for security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information for security issues.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance WHOIS transparency or provide domain registration details to improve trust.

Notes

The website is built on WordPress using a custom theme and integrates Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and reCAPTCHA for analytics and security. It uses modern icon libraries and CDN-hosted assets for performance. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility and SEO practices. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in asset loading and caching. No critical technical debt or outdated technologies were identified, indicating a well-maintained infrastructure.
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.
