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. 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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

EITB operates as a public broadcaster under the parent company EITB TALDEA, with several subsidiary media brands such as Gaztea, Makusi, Guau, and Primeran. Its business model combines public funding with advertising revenue. The company targets a regional audience in Spain's Basque Country, offering diverse content including television, radio, online news, and sports coverage. The website's integration with multiple social media platforms and streaming services indicates a strong digital presence and engagement strategy. The presence of comprehensive privacy and cookie policies reflects a commitment to regulatory compliance and user trust. The advertising ecosystem includes major ad networks and tracking services, supporting monetization while maintaining transparency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enforcement, use of privacy management frameworks, and secure cookie handling. However, it lacks some recommended security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security incident handling. The site complies with GDPR through visible consent mechanisms and privacy policies. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be improved with additional headers and a vulnerability disclosure program.

Recommendations

  1. Implement Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options headers to strengthen security.
  2. Publish a security.txt file or dedicated security policy page to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  3. Enhance visibility of incident response contacts for security and privacy issues.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and advertising integrations for security risks.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving regulations and practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including Vue.js, Video.js, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and Smart AdServer for advertising. It is mobile-optimized with responsive design and includes accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with deferred loading of scripts and asynchronous ad calls. The site integrates multiple social media SDKs and video streaming APIs, indicating a complex but well-managed infrastructure. No CMS was explicitly detected. Hosting provider details are not available from the content. The site uses GDPR-compliant consent management and privacy frameworks, reflecting a mature approach to user data protection.
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.
