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

FieldTurf is a globally recognized leader in the manufacturing and supply of artificial turf for sports fields, boasting over 25,000 installations worldwide. As a division of Tarkett, FieldTurf offers innovative synthetic turf solutions tailored for football, rugby, hockey, tennis, and padel, targeting sports organizations, municipalities, and commercial clients. The website reflects a mature and professional business with consistent branding and a clear market position as an industry innovator and trusted provider. Technically, the website leverages modern technologies including Cloudflare for DNS and CDN, Google Analytics and Hotjar for analytics, and Shopify components for e-commerce functionalities. The site is well-optimized for mobile and accessibility, with good SEO practices and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism ensuring privacy compliance. The use of reCAPTCHA and Cloudflare enhances security against bots and malicious traffic. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced, no visible vulnerabilities, and good security practices observed. However, the absence of explicit privacy policy and terms of service pages, as well as lack of a published security policy or vulnerability disclosure, represent areas for improvement. WHOIS data confirms the domain's legitimacy and long-standing presence, supporting trustworthiness. Overall, FieldTurf's digital presence is professional and secure, with minor gaps in compliance documentation. Strategic enhancements in privacy and security transparency would further strengthen trust and regulatory adherence.

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

4 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 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  3. 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

FieldTurf operates as a large manufacturing entity within the synthetic turf industry, serving a global market with a focus on sports field solutions. Its competitive advantage lies in its innovation legacy as the inventor of long-pile infilled synthetic turf and its affiliation with Tarkett, a major parent company. The business model centers on product manufacturing, installation, and customer support, targeting sports organizations, municipalities, and commercial sectors. The website indicates a well-established brand with extensive installations and a broad product portfolio. Partnerships and regional subsidiaries, such as fieldturf.com.au, support localized market penetration. The company demonstrates strong digital maturity with integrated analytics and consent management, positioning it well for growth and compliance in evolving regulatory environments.

Security posture

FieldTurf exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced site-wide, Cloudflare protection, and Google reCAPTCHA integration to mitigate automated threats. The presence of a detailed cookie consent mechanism aligns with GDPR and privacy best practices. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the lack of a published security policy, incident response information, or vulnerability disclosure page limits transparency and may hinder rapid incident communication. The absence of DNSSEC is a minor gap in DNS security. Overall, the site is secure but would benefit from enhanced security documentation and additional HTTP security headers to further harden defenses and demonstrate commitment to security culture.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the website footer.
  3. Create and publish a security policy and incident response page including contact channels for security issues.
  4. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Add additional HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options to improve security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted behind Cloudflare, leveraging its DNS and CDN services for performance and security. The tech stack includes Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Hotjar for user behavior analytics, and Shopify Buy Button for e-commerce capabilities. CookieYes is used for cookie consent management, ensuring compliance with privacy regulations. The site is mobile optimized, accessible, and SEO friendly with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is moderate, with video content and rich media assets. No major technical debt or outdated libraries were detected. Opportunities exist to enhance security headers and implement DNSSEC for improved resilience.
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.
