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.

Priority findings

3 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"

  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

ESPN Chile operates within the media sector as a major sports news provider in Latin America, leveraging the global ESPN brand and Disney's resources. Its business model centers on content delivery monetized through advertising networks such as Google GPT and Prebid.js. The target audience includes sports enthusiasts seeking localized and international sports coverage. The website's extensive use of partner domains and CDN services reflects a mature partnership ecosystem. While direct contact information is not prominently displayed, the site maintains comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, indicating regulatory compliance. The brand's market position is strong, supported by consistent branding and high-quality content, positioning ESPN Chile as a key player in regional sports media.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced and integration of consent management tools for GDPR compliance. Security headers such as Content-Type and Referrer-Policy are present, but the absence of additional headers like Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security suggests room for enhancement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The use of third-party analytics and advertising scripts is managed with user consent, reflecting good privacy practices. However, the lack of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates gaps in comprehensive security governance. Strengthening these areas would improve the site's resilience and trustworthiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement additional HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish explicit security and incident response policies on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program and provide a security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate risks from vulnerable libraries.

Notes

The website utilizes a modern technology stack with JavaScript frameworks, service workers for offline capabilities, and advanced ad management via Google GPT and Prebid.js. It employs OneTrust for cookie consent management, ensuring regulatory compliance. The site is optimized for mobile devices with responsive design and lazy loading of assets. Structured data in JSON-LD format is used to improve SEO and content discoverability. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in load times through optimization of third-party scripts.

Overall, the technical implementation supports a high-quality user experience with opportunities for further optimization and security hardening.
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.
