Risk levelHigh

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

Gamelab is a well-established event organizer specializing in the videogames industry, with over 20 years of history and a strong reputation for connecting industry leaders and professionals through conferences and networking events. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image targeting gaming professionals and enthusiasts, primarily in Spain. Technically, the site uses modern front-end technologies such as Bootstrap, jQuery, and Owl Carousel, providing a responsive and user-friendly experience. However, the site lacks explicit privacy and cookie policies, which is a compliance gap. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and secure forms with CSRF tokens but lacks visible security headers and published security policies, indicating room for improvement in security posture. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and security best practices.

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

10 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. 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';…

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

Gamelab holds a strong market position as a respected global stage for videogame industry events, attracting top speakers and curated attendees. Its business model centers on event organization and ticket sales, targeting industry professionals and companies. The company has strategic partnerships with leading gaming and technology companies, enhancing its credibility and reach. The website content and testimonials reinforce its reputation and trustworthiness. Growth potential exists through expanding digital presence and improving compliance and security transparency.

Security posture

The current security posture is moderate. The use of HTTPS and CSRF tokens in forms is positive, but the absence of security headers such as CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is published, which could hinder timely security issue management. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. The site should implement security headers, publish security policies, and introduce a vulnerability disclosure program to enhance security maturity.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details.
  3. Add a cookie consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations.
  4. Establish and publish a security policy and incident response contact information.
  5. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end stack with Bootstrap 4.6.2, jQuery, and Owl Carousel for UI components and responsiveness. Google Fonts are used for typography. The site is mobile optimized and has good navigation clarity. However, no CMS or backend technology is explicitly detected. Performance is moderate, with deferred loading of scripts. No analytics or tracking scripts were found, indicating minimal user tracking. The site lacks advanced SEO meta tags and accessibility features, suggesting opportunities for technical 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.
