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. 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. 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

ECAL operates in the technology sector with a SaaS business model focused on calendar marketing solutions. Its market positioning is strong within its niche, supported by customer stories and case studies. The company targets enterprise clients across various industries including sports, media, and education. Partnerships with sites like staynplay.co and hyperid.co indicate a growing ecosystem. The business model relies on subscription and enterprise services, with a presence in multiple global cities. The website content and structure support lead generation and customer engagement through demos and trials.

Security posture

The security maturity level is moderate to good. The site uses HTTPS and has domain transfer protection enabled. Cookie consent and GDPR compliance are implemented via a dedicated plugin. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no advanced security headers were detected in the HTML content. No explicit security or incident response policies are published. Third-party scripts are used extensively, which requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or obvious vulnerabilities were found. Incident response contact channels are not publicly listed, which is a gap for security transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement additional HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and provide more direct contact information such as verified company emails and phone numbers.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using WPBakery Page Builder and several plugins for SEO, GDPR compliance, and forms. It integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools including Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Intercom, and Google Tag Manager. Hosting appears to be on AWS infrastructure based on DNS servers. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. The site uses modern fonts and responsive design but could improve accessibility. SEO is supported by Yoast SEO plugin and structured data in JSON-LD format. The technical stack is standard for a mid-sized SaaS business but requires continuous maintenance to ensure security and performance.
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.
