Security is well addressed with HTTPS, Content Security Policy, and fraud prevention mechanisms like Forter. Privacy compliance is robust, with comprehensive policies and user consent mechanisms in place. While the WHOIS data for the domain is unavailable, which slightly reduces trust, the overall digital footprint, certifications, and social media presence strongly support the legitimacy of the business.

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

2 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 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 SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

GetYourGuide holds a strong market position as a major player in the online travel experience booking industry. Its business model focuses on aggregating and facilitating bookings for tours and activities globally, targeting tourists and travelers. The platform leverages partnerships with suppliers and content creators, supported by affiliate programs and supplier portals. Revenue streams likely include commissions from bookings and partnerships. The company maintains a broad partnership ecosystem and invests in marketing and analytics tools to optimize user engagement and conversion. Growth indicators include a large catalog of activities, multi-language support, and mobile app availability. Strategic observations highlight the importance of maintaining trust through certifications and privacy compliance, as well as expanding supplier and affiliate networks.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced, Content Security Policy with nonce tokens, and integration of fraud prevention services such as Forter. The presence of a consent management platform indicates attention to privacy regulations like GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the absence of a published security policy or incident response information is a gap that could be addressed to enhance transparency and readiness. The lack of a security.txt file also limits vulnerability disclosure channels. Overall, the security maturity is high but could benefit from formalized public security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and user trust.
  2. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate supply chain risks.
  4. Consider adding direct company contact emails and phone numbers for support and security reporting.
  5. Enhance monitoring and logging capabilities to detect and respond to security incidents promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern JavaScript framework (likely Vue.js) with a modular and component-based architecture. It uses a CDN for static assets and integrates multiple third-party services for analytics, fraud prevention, and consent management. Performance is optimized with preloading fonts, images, and scripts, and the site is mobile responsive with good accessibility features. SEO is well implemented with meta tags, Open Graph data, and structured JSON-LD data describing the organization. Hosting appears to be cloud-based with strong security configurations. Technical risks are minimal but include dependency on multiple external services which require ongoing security and privacy management.
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.
