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

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 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

Eventbrite operates in the technology and e-commerce sectors, focusing on event ticketing and management. Its business model revolves around providing a SaaS platform for event organizers to create and sell tickets, supported by marketing tools and payment processing. The company targets a broad audience including individuals, businesses, and organizations hosting events. Eventbrite's competitive advantages include a comprehensive feature set, global reach, and strong brand recognition. Revenue streams likely include ticket fees, premium services, and advertising. The company maintains an active partnership ecosystem with social media platforms and advertising networks, supporting growth and market penetration.

Security posture

Eventbrite exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, robust SSL configurations, and comprehensive security headers. The presence of a dedicated security page and consent management indicates attention to privacy and regulatory compliance. However, the absence of publicly available incident response contacts and vulnerability disclosure policies suggests areas for improvement. No critical vulnerabilities or security misconfigurations were identified in the analyzed content. The platform appears well-prepared for data protection and incident management, though formalizing these aspects would enhance trust and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish explicit incident response contact information on the security page.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  3. Enhance transparency regarding security certifications and compliance frameworks.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks.
  5. Continue improving accessibility and SEO to maintain competitive advantage.

The website is built using modern JavaScript frameworks such as React and Next.js, hosted on AWS infrastructure, which supports scalability and performance. The use of Google Tag Manager and AWS RUM indicates advanced analytics and monitoring capabilities.

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.
