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

6 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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

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

HostCreators operates in the technology sector, specifically in web hosting and domain registration, targeting individuals and businesses in Slovakia. Their business model is based on pay-for-space hosting with unlimited domains, databases, and emails, appealing to cost-conscious customers. The company leverages a custom platform and proprietary admin tools to differentiate itself. Their marketing ecosystem includes social media engagement and multiple analytics platforms, indicating a data-driven approach. The absence of publicly disclosed certifications or security policies suggests room for maturity in compliance and trust-building. The company maintains a small size with a focused regional market, supported by positive customer testimonials and a consistent brand image.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS, cookie consent, and daily backups stored redundantly. Email security includes antivirus and antispam protections. However, there is no visible security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism, which are important for transparency and trust. Security headers are not explicitly confirmed, and no security.txt file is present. The use of multiple third-party scripts requires ongoing vigilance to avoid vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small hosting provider but could be improved by formalizing policies and enhancing header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response plan on the website.
  2. Implement and expose a vulnerability disclosure program including a security.txt file.
  3. Audit and enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options.
  4. Regularly review third-party scripts and tracking tools for security and privacy compliance.
  5. Increase transparency by providing data retention policies and DPO contact information.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including OpenLiteSpeed web server, Redis caching, and PHP/MySQL backend. Frontend technologies suggest Vue.js framework usage with responsive design and accessibility considerations. Analytics and marketing integrations are extensive, supporting data-driven decision making. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. The hosting infrastructure appears virtualized and scalable, with custom admin tools enhancing user experience. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts and lack of explicit security headers. Opportunities exist to improve performance, accessibility, and security hardening to support business growth.
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.
