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

GetYourGuide is a leading global online marketplace specializing in booking tours, attractions, and travel experiences worldwide. The platform targets travelers seeking convenient and reliable ways to discover and book activities, offering a broad range of services including sightseeing tours, excursions, and cultural experiences. The company has established a strong market position with consistent branding, a professional website, and a comprehensive service offering. Technically, the website leverages modern web technologies such as Vue.js, integrates advanced tracking and fraud prevention tools like Google Tag Manager and Forter, and employs a consent management platform to ensure privacy compliance. Security posture is robust with HTTPS, nonce-based CSP, and error tracking, though some security headers could be more explicitly implemented. The WHOIS data is privacy protected, which is typical for large enterprises, and does not detract from the legitimacy of the business. Overall, the website demonstrates a mature digital presence with strong business credibility and compliance 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

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 operates in the hospitality sector as an essential entity with a large company size. Its business model is an e-commerce marketplace connecting travelers with local suppliers of tours and activities. The company benefits from a wide partner ecosystem, including supplier portals and affiliate programs, enhancing its market reach. Revenue streams likely include commissions from bookings and partnerships. The platform's global reach is supported by multi-language and multi-currency support, targeting a broad international audience. Strategic observations include a strong focus on user experience, trust signals such as certifications and social media presence, and a clear emphasis on compliance with privacy regulations like GDPR.

Security posture

The website exhibits a strong security posture with mandatory HTTPS, use of Content Security Policy with nonce, integration of fraud prevention services (Forter), and a consent management platform (Usercentrics) for cookie compliance. Error monitoring is handled via Sentry, indicating proactive incident detection. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, some security headers such as Referrer-Policy and Permissions-Policy are not explicitly visible and could be improved. Incident response contact information and explicit security policies are not prominently found, representing an area for enhancement. Overall, the security maturity is high with room for incremental improvements in header policies and incident response transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Explicitly implement and verify all recommended security headers including Referrer-Policy and Permissions-Policy to enhance security posture.
  2. Increase visibility and accessibility of incident response and security contact information to improve trust and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance anti-CSRF protections on all forms and ensure secure handling of user inputs.
  5. Develop and publish a formal security policy and vulnerability disclosure program to align with industry best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern JavaScript framework (Vue.js) with modular JavaScript and CSS assets loaded via CDN. It uses Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking and performance monitoring, alongside Forter for fraud prevention and Usercentrics for consent management. The site is optimized for performance with preconnect hints and module preload directives. Mobile optimization and accessibility features are well implemented, contributing to excellent user experience. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found but CDN usage is extensive. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern, performant, and well-maintained with minor opportunities for further optimization and security hardening.
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.
