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

FIM Europe operates an official results website dedicated to motorcycle racing events across Europe, covering multiple disciplines such as motocross, enduro, supermoto, track racing, trial, vintage, e-bike, drag racing, and snowcross. The platform serves as a centralized information hub for race results, event schedules, and championship standings, targeting motorcycle racing enthusiasts, participants, and officials. The website demonstrates a consistent brand presence and provides comprehensive event data, supporting the organization's role as a key governing body in European motorcycle sports. Technically, the site is built using modern frontend technologies including Vue.js and the Quasar framework, hosted on DigitalOcean infrastructure. While the site is mobile-optimized and accessible at a basic level, performance is suboptimal with a slow load time and a relatively large page size. The SSL certificate is valid but lacks support for modern TLS protocols, and DNS security features like DNSSEC and CAA records are not enabled, indicating room for improvement in the security infrastructure. From a security and compliance perspective, the website includes a cookie consent mechanism and links to a comprehensive privacy policy that appears GDPR compliant. However, no explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are found. Security headers are minimal, with only HSTS enabled, and there is no evidence of advanced security frameworks or certifications. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could benefit from enhancements to encryption protocols, DNS security, and transparency around incident response. The overall risk to the business from the website is moderate, primarily due to technical and security gaps that could impact user trust and data protection compliance. Strategic recommendations include upgrading TLS support, enabling DNSSEC and CAA records, implementing additional security headers, and establishing clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies to strengthen the security culture and compliance stance.

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

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  2. 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

  3. 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';…

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

FIM Europe holds a significant position as the official continental governing body for motorcycle racing in Europe, providing authoritative results and event information. Their business model focuses on delivering timely and accurate race data to a specialized audience of racers, teams, officials, and fans. The platform supports multiple racing disciplines, indicating a broad scope and diverse user base. The organization likely generates value through partnerships, sponsorships, and event sanctioning, although direct revenue streams from the website are not evident. The use of modern web technologies and a consistent brand presence suggests a mature digital strategy aimed at maintaining leadership in the motorcycle sports domain. Growth opportunities may include expanding digital services, enhancing user engagement, and leveraging data analytics for deeper insights into the racing ecosystem.

Security posture

The current security maturity of the FIM Europe website is moderate. The presence of a valid SSL certificate and HSTS header are positive indicators, but the lack of support for modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or 1.3) and absence of DNSSEC and CAA records expose the site to potential security risks. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which may hinder timely handling of security incidents. The cookie consent mechanism and GDPR-compliant privacy policy demonstrate awareness of data protection regulations, but the absence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file limits transparency and community engagement in security. Overall, while no critical vulnerabilities are detected, the security posture would benefit from enhancements in encryption, DNS security, and formalized incident response processes to reduce business risk and improve compliance with evolving regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Enable TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3 protocols to improve encryption and security of data in transit.
  2. Implement DNSSEC and CAA DNS records to enhance domain security and control over certificate issuance.
  3. Add additional security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  4. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program and consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern frontend stack using Vue.js and the Quasar framework, indicating a contemporary approach to UI development. Hosting on DigitalOcean provides scalable infrastructure, but the site suffers from slow load times (over 12 seconds) and a large page size (~250KB), suggesting optimization opportunities. The use of Google Fonts and Google Tag Manager reflects standard web practices for typography and analytics. However, the SSL configuration is outdated, lacking support for modern TLS versions, which is a technical risk. DNS configuration lacks DNSSEC and CAA records, which are best practices for domain security. The site is mobile-optimized and accessible at a basic level, but SEO optimization is also basic, indicating room for improvement in discoverability and user experience. Addressing these technical debts will enhance performance, security, and overall operational 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.
