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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention firstsight.media, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for firstsight.media right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The company operates in the media sector, focusing on event production and streaming services for corporate and educational clients. Its business model revolves around providing end-to-end technical production solutions, leveraging expertise in live environments and digital content creation. The presence of notable clients and awards indicates competitive positioning and growth potential. The company uses a mix of marketing and analytics tools to optimize outreach and engagement. No direct contact emails or phone numbers are publicly listed, suggesting a preference for contact via forms or social media. The company maintains detailed policies on privacy, diversity, and environmental sustainability, reflecting a responsible corporate ethos.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS and no exposed sensitive data. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents an area for improvement. No incident response or abuse contact information is published, which could hinder timely vulnerability reporting and mitigation. The use of multiple third-party scripts necessitates ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear policies and consent mechanisms. Overall, the security maturity is moderate to good but can be strengthened by adopting additional best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Publish a security.txt file or dedicated vulnerability disclosure page with clear contact information.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user inclusivity.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding direct company contact emails and phone numbers for improved trust and communication.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including jQuery, Slick Carousel, Morphext for animations, Google Analytics, HubSpot marketing tools, and Font Awesome icons. Hosting is supported by AWS Cloudfront CDN, contributing to moderate performance. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and smooth navigation. SEO practices are good with appropriate meta tags and structured content. However, no CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or static site architecture. Accessibility is basic and could be improved. The technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced security headers and performance optimizations.
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.
