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

The ICE Hockey League website serves as the official digital platform for the win2day ICE Hockey League, providing comprehensive information including schedules, standings, player and team statistics, news, and multimedia content. The site targets ice hockey fans, players, teams, and media stakeholders, positioning itself as a central hub for league-related information and engagement. The business model revolves around sports media and fan engagement, supported by partnerships and sponsorships prominently displayed on the site. Technically, the website is built on Joomla CMS and utilizes modern web technologies such as Smart Slider 3 and jQuery, with Matomo analytics for user tracking. The site is mobile-optimized and presents a professional design with clear navigation, though accessibility features are basic. Performance is moderate, with no major technical issues detected. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, explicit security headers are not evident, and there is no published security policy or vulnerability disclosure mechanism. Privacy compliance is limited, with no visible privacy or cookie policies or consent mechanisms, which could be improved to meet GDPR standards. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional, with a strong brand presence and social media integration. The domain WHOIS data is privacy protected, which is common but limits transparency. Strategic recommendations include enhancing privacy compliance, implementing security headers, and publishing incident response information to strengthen security posture and user 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

5 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 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 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 Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

The ICE Hockey League operates as a recognized sports league in Austria and surrounding regions, leveraging its official website to engage fans and stakeholders. Its competitive advantage lies in its official status, comprehensive content offerings, and strong partnerships with sponsors and media outlets. Revenue streams likely include sponsorships, advertising, and media rights. The target customer segments include sports fans, players, teams, and media professionals. Growth indicators include active social media presence and multimedia content delivery. The partnership ecosystem is robust, featuring well-known brands and local government entities. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to enhance digital maturity through improved privacy and security compliance.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents a gap that could be exploited. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact reduces transparency and readiness for security incidents. Compliance with GDPR is partial due to missing privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. No vulnerabilities or malicious indicators were detected in the content or scripts. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could benefit from enhancements in policy publication and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information, including a security.txt file, to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries for vulnerabilities and update them to latest secure versions.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve user experience for all visitors, including those with disabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS, a widely used open-source content management system, indicating a mature and maintainable platform. It uses Smart Slider 3 for dynamic content presentation and jQuery for client-side scripting. Matomo analytics is employed for user tracking, providing privacy-focused analytics. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design elements and uses modern CSS and JavaScript. Performance is moderate, with no critical technical debt observed. Opportunities exist to improve technical SEO and accessibility compliance. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively but could be enhanced with modern security and privacy features.
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.
