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

The Budapest Game Dev Day website represents a professional event platform organized by the Magyar Játékfejlesztő Egyesület, targeting the Hungarian game development community. It offers a comprehensive program including presentations, pitch contests, exhibitions, and networking opportunities, positioning itself as a central hub for local developers and industry professionals. The site is built on WordPress with Elementor, integrating modern web technologies and external services for ticketing and analytics. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and no visible vulnerabilities, though explicit privacy and cookie policies are missing. The WHOIS data shows an anomalous future creation date, likely a data error, but the website content and external references support legitimacy. Overall, the site is well-designed, user-friendly, and serves its business purpose effectively.

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

11 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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

The event targets a niche but growing market segment of game developers in Hungary, including indie developers and industry veterans. Revenue streams likely include ticket sales, business passes, and sponsorships from relevant technology and gaming companies. The partnership with hgda.hu and cooltix.hu strengthens its ecosystem. The business model focuses on community building and professional development, with clear growth potential as the Hungarian game industry expands. The site’s content and branding reflect a focused and consistent market positioning, enhancing trust and engagement.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and uses standard security practices for a WordPress-based event site. No security headers were detected in the provided data, and no explicit security or incident response policies are published. The absence of privacy and cookie policies is a compliance gap, especially under GDPR. Analytics usage is moderate with cookie-based tracking. There is no evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries. Recommendations include adding security headers, publishing privacy and cookie policies, and providing clear incident response contacts to improve security maturity and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Add explicit contact information for security incidents and data protection officer if applicable.
  4. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO metadata for broader reach and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder, integrating Google Fonts, Google Maps, and third-party plugins for event management and analytics. The site loads moderately fast and is mobile optimized. The technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and security header configurations. The WHOIS data anomaly suggests a need for domain registration verification. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business goals effectively with room for security and compliance improvements.
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.
