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

FilmBooster.com is an online media platform catering to movie and TV enthusiasts by providing a multi-language database of films, series, trailers, interviews, and personalized recommendations. The platform encourages user engagement through watchlists, reviews, and social features, positioning itself as a niche community hub for cinema lovers. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including jQuery, Video.js for video playback, and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking, alongside a robust consent management system via Didomi, ensuring GDPR compliance. The site is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and offers a good user experience with clear navigation and multimedia content. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and consent mechanisms but lacks explicit security headers and incident response information, which could be improved. The absence of WHOIS domain registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, although the website content and design appear professional and trustworthy. Overall, the site scores well on content quality and technical implementation but is slightly penalized for missing domain registration transparency and contact details.

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 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 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

  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 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

FilmBooster.com operates in the media sector, focusing on film and TV content aggregation and community engagement. Its business model revolves around providing a comprehensive database, personalized recommendations, and user-generated content such as reviews and watchlists. The platform targets movie and TV geeks, reviewers, and general audiences interested in entertainment. The presence of multiple country-specific domains suggests a strategy for localized market penetration. Revenue streams likely include advertising and partnerships with streaming services or content providers. The platform's partnership ecosystem includes integration with various streaming services and content distributors. Growth indicators include active multimedia content updates and user engagement features. Strategic observations highlight the need for enhanced transparency in domain registration and improved direct contact channels to bolster business credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with enforced HTTPS and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. The use of Didomi for consent management and the presence of privacy policies indicate attention to data protection. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options, absence of a published security policy or incident response plan, and no visible vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file suggest gaps in security governance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a notable risk factor, potentially impacting trustworthiness. Overall, while the site follows good practices in user privacy and data handling, it would benefit from enhanced security policies, transparency, and incident readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response plan accessible on the website.
  2. Add and verify security headers such as X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Content-Security-Policy to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Improve transparency by ensuring domain WHOIS data is complete and publicly available to reinforce legitimacy.
  4. Provide clear and accessible contact information including company emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and user trust.
  5. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible security reporting and demonstrate security commitment.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including jQuery, Video.js for video playback, and Google Tag Manager and Analytics for tracking. It integrates a GDPR-compliant consent management platform (Didomi) and loads resources from multiple CDN domains for performance optimization. The site is mobile-optimized and uses responsive design principles. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and deferred JavaScript to improve page load times. Accessibility features are basic but present. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not evident from the HTML content. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts which require regular security audits and the absence of some security headers. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a good user experience but could be enhanced with improved security configurations and accessibility compliance.
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.
