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

egta Tech Hub is a specialized online portal designed to assist TV and radio companies, along with their sales houses, in discovering and selecting appropriate ad tech solutions and providers. The platform serves as a comprehensive search engine and directory, facilitating better connections between media companies and technology vendors. The website is professionally designed, leveraging WordPress and modern web technologies, and includes privacy and cookie policies compliant with GDPR. However, the absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises some concerns about domain registration legitimacy. The site employs HTTPS and basic security practices but lacks advanced security headers and explicit incident response information.

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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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';…

  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

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 · found on this site
  • 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 business operates in the media and technology sectors, focusing on advertising technology solutions for broadcasters and related entities. It positions itself as an international reference point for TV and radio advertising solutions, supported by egta, a global trade body. The portal's business model revolves around providing curated information and facilitating connections rather than direct sales. The target audience includes media executives and sales teams seeking technology partners. The website content is consistent and professional, though contact details are not explicitly provided, which may impact direct engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with enforced HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which are recommended best practices. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact channels limits transparency and preparedness. The domain's WHOIS information is missing, which could be a risk factor. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be improved with additional measures and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information on the website to improve transparency and user trust.
  3. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Monitor domain registration status and ensure WHOIS information is accurate and up to date to improve legitimacy and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with common plugins and libraries such as jQuery, Slider Revolution, and Bootstrap. It uses Google Fonts and Font Awesome for styling and icons. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation and SEO optimization. Performance is moderate, with some room for optimization. No critical technical issues were detected. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified. The site uses Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking, with a cookie consent mechanism in place. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and adequate for the business purpose.
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.
