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

Häme Events is a regional event listing platform operated by Hämeen Maakuntaliitto, a Finnish regional government entity. The website provides a searchable calendar of events in the Kanta-Häme region and offers an open API for integrating event data into other services. The platform targets residents and visitors interested in local events, supporting community engagement and regional promotion. The business model centers on providing free access to event information and facilitating event submissions. Technically, the website uses a custom-built platform with modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, Semantic UI, and various UI enhancement plugins. It integrates multiple analytics services including Google Analytics, Matomo, and Facebook SDK. Hosting appears to be on Amazon AWS infrastructure, indicated by the AWS nameservers. The site is mobile optimized and has basic SEO and accessibility features, though content quality is minimal and mostly functional. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, it lacks important security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, and does not provide privacy or cookie policies, which impacts GDPR compliance. No contact emails or phone numbers are visible on the site, limiting user support and incident response transparency. The WHOIS data confirms the domain is registered to the regional government organization, with consistent registration details and no privacy protection, supporting legitimacy. Overall, the website is a functional regional event platform with moderate technical maturity and a solid legitimacy profile. Security and privacy compliance can be improved by adding policies, security headers, and contact information. Enhancing content richness and user engagement features would also increase value and trust.

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

9 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. 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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
      • 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

Häme Events operates as a government-backed regional event aggregator for the Kanta-Häme area in Finland. Its competitive advantage lies in official backing and open data availability, enabling integration into third-party services. The business model is service-oriented, focusing on community engagement rather than direct revenue. Target customers include local residents, tourists, and event organizers. Growth potential exists through expanded API usage and partnerships with local businesses and municipalities. The platform currently lacks monetization features but benefits from stable government support. The partnership ecosystem is limited but could be expanded with cultural and tourism organizations. Strategic observations suggest focusing on improving privacy compliance and user support to enhance trust and adoption.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data leaks. However, the absence of key security headers reduces protection against common web attacks such as clickjacking and MIME sniffing. The use of multiple third-party analytics and tracking scripts without visible consent mechanisms raises privacy concerns under GDPR. No vulnerability disclosures, incident response contacts, or security policies are published, limiting transparency and readiness. The WHOIS data is consistent and trustworthy, reducing risk of domain-related fraud. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but requires improvements in headers, privacy policies, and incident response capabilities to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against web attacks.
  3. Provide clear contact information including security incident response contacts to improve transparency and user trust.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities and reduce privacy risks.
  5. Enhance website content quality and user engagement features to increase value and market position.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a custom platform using jQuery and Semantic UI for UI components, supplemented by various JavaScript libraries for enhanced user interface elements like dropdowns and date pickers. Hosting is likely on AWS infrastructure, inferred from the domain's nameservers. The site loads multiple analytics scripts asynchronously, which may impact performance but supports detailed user tracking. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and mobile menu toggling implemented. SEO is basic with meta tags and Open Graph data present but no structured JSON-LD data found. Accessibility features are minimal but present. Performance is moderate with some potential for optimization by reducing third-party script load. No CMS detected, indicating custom development. Overall, the technical stack is modern but could benefit from improved security and privacy technical controls.
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.
