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 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. 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.

Technical appendix

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

Business context

Business profile

Goodgame Studios holds a leading position in the free-to-play gaming market, leveraging a business model focused on engaging a broad audience through browser and mobile platforms. Their revenue streams likely include in-app purchases and advertising. The company benefits from a strong parent company, Stillfront Group, enhancing its market reach and resources. The website supports multiple languages and platforms, indicating a global target audience. Partnerships with marketing analytics providers like AppsFlyer and use of Google Analytics reflect a data-driven approach to user acquisition and retention. The company maintains active social media channels to foster community engagement and brand loyalty.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses clientTransferProhibited domain status to prevent unauthorized domain transfers, indicating good baseline security practices. However, the absence of DNSSEC and missing security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represent areas for enhancement. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which could be improved to increase transparency and readiness. The cookie consent mechanism via Didomi aligns with GDPR requirements, supporting privacy compliance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  3. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contact information.
  4. Consider adding explicit security and incident response policies on the website to enhance transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerable components are included.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress CMS with Yoast SEO plugin, Google Tag Manager, and Google Analytics for marketing and analytics. Hosting is provided via AWS infrastructure, as indicated by DNS servers. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive images and supports multiple languages. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. The use of Didomi for consent management demonstrates compliance with privacy regulations. Technical debt appears low, but security enhancements and performance tuning could further improve the site's robustness and user experience.
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.
