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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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 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 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

EuroShop holds a dominant market position in retail trade fairs, leveraging its long history since 1966 and the backing of Messe Düsseldorf GmbH. The business benefits from a large-scale event model attracting over 80,000 trade visitors globally. Key competitive advantages include a comprehensive exhibitor and visitor service ecosystem, innovative event dimensions, and strong branding consistency. The company maintains partnerships with related domains for stand construction and configurator services, enhancing exhibitor experience. The website's content and structure indicate a focus on B2B retail professionals and international trade visitors, supporting growth and market leadership.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates a consent management platform (Usercentrics) to comply with GDPR requirements. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security headers (e.g., CSP, HSTS) and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts represent areas for improvement. The site uses reputable analytics and advertising services with transparent tracking mechanisms. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by formalizing security policies and improving header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the main navigation or footer.
  2. Add explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen security posture.
  3. Provide clear contact information for security incidents, including an incident response email or abuse contact.
  4. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to maintain compliance with evolving standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including jQuery, Vue.js modules, Vimeo for video content, and Usercentrics for consent management. It integrates Matomo for analytics and Smart AdServer for advertising. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses slick carousel for interactive content. Hosting appears stable and likely managed by Messe Düsseldorf or associated providers. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and lazy loading of ads. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. Technical risks are minimal but could be reduced by adding security headers and improving documentation of security practices.
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.
