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

HPP Open is a Finnish tennis event organizer hosting the ATP Challenger tournament in Helsinki, recognized as the largest international tennis event in Finland. The website serves as an information portal for the event, providing schedules, news, ticketing information, and sponsor details. The business operates primarily in the hospitality and sports event sector, targeting tennis fans and the sports community. The company behind the event is HVS Club Oy, with partnerships including the venue Talin Tenniskeskus and various sponsors. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with common plugins for SEO and social media integration. However, the site suffers from critical security shortcomings, notably the absence of HTTPS and a valid SSL certificate, which undermines user trust and data security. Performance is suboptimal with slow load times and a high number of resources, though mobile optimization and SEO practices are reasonably well implemented. Privacy compliance is minimal, lacking cookie consent mechanisms and comprehensive GDPR indicators. Overall, the site is functional and professionally presented but requires urgent security and privacy improvements to meet modern standards.

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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

  2. 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

The HPP Open event positions itself as a key player in Finnish tennis, leveraging ATP Challenger branding to attract international attention. Revenue streams likely include ticket sales, sponsorships, and partnerships with local businesses. The business model focuses on event management and sports promotion, with a clear target audience of tennis enthusiasts and local spectators. The partnership ecosystem includes sports clubs, venue operators, and corporate sponsors from diverse sectors such as automotive, sports equipment, and hospitality. Growth indicators include consistent event scheduling and active social media engagement. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to enhance digital presence through improved security, privacy compliance, and performance optimization to increase user trust and engagement.

Security posture

The website's security posture is weak due to the lack of HTTPS and a valid SSL certificate, exposing users to potential data interception risks. No HTTP security headers are implemented, and there is no evidence of advanced security frameworks or incident response policies. The absence of cookie consent mechanisms and privacy compliance features further exposes the organization to regulatory risks under GDPR. While no active vulnerabilities like Heartbleed or POODLE were detected, the fundamental security gaps represent significant business risks. The site should prioritize securing communications, implementing security headers, and establishing clear privacy and incident response policies to improve its security maturity and regulatory compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Acquire and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site immediately.
  2. Implement essential HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  4. Conduct a security audit of all plugins and third-party scripts to ensure no vulnerable components are in use.
  5. Develop and publish a formal security policy and incident response plan, including dedicated contact channels for security issues.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with common plugins including Yoast SEO, Contact Form 7, and Instagram Feed integration. The hosting is managed by Louhi Networks, with DNS servers located in Finland. The site uses jQuery and standard web fonts from Google Fonts and Adobe Typekit. Performance is hindered by a large number of resources (203) and a slow load time (~24 seconds), indicating potential optimization needs. Mobile responsiveness is good, and SEO is well addressed through meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). However, the lack of HTTPS and security headers is a critical technical deficiency. The site would benefit from performance optimization, security hardening, and enhanced privacy features to improve overall technical maturity.
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.
