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.

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

Heeds operates in the technology and media sectors, providing a SaaS platform tailored for music event management. Their business model focuses on B2B services, targeting event professionals who require integrated tools for managing complex event logistics. The company demonstrates a stable market presence with client references and partner listings visible on the site. Their digital ecosystem includes a client management subdomain, social media engagement, and content marketing through stories and news. The absence of direct contact emails on the homepage suggests a controlled communication channel, likely to manage leads and support efficiently. Growth indicators include a consistent content update and integration with professional tools. Strategic partnerships and a focused niche market position Heeds well for continued expansion in the event technology space.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security hardening. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The site lacks a published security policy or incident response contact, which could improve transparency and readiness. Cookie consent mechanisms are not evident, posing a potential GDPR compliance risk. The use of reputable analytics platforms is noted, but data retention policies and privacy compliance details are minimal. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a visible cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to ensure GDPR compliance and improve user trust.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and provide clear incident response contact information to demonstrate commitment to security and facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  4. Consider deploying a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy page to encourage responsible disclosure and improve security posture.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins to ensure no vulnerable libraries are used and maintain up-to-date software versions.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.3, leveraging jQuery 3.7.1 and modern JavaScript for interactive features. Google Tag Manager and Matomo are used for analytics, indicating a mature approach to data collection and marketing insights. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO practices including meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed through optimization of images and scripts. Accessibility features are basic but present. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. The technical stack is standard for small to medium-sized business websites, offering a balance between functionality and maintainability.
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.
