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
4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
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.

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.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The website operates as a niche media outlet within the iGaming sector, leveraging content marketing and event promotion as primary revenue streams. Its affiliation with SBC Media and related domains suggests a strong partnership ecosystem and regional market penetration. The business model focuses on delivering industry news, expert commentary, and multimedia content to professionals, supporting advertising and sponsorship opportunities. Growth indicators include active social media presence and diversified content formats. The platform's competitive advantage lies in its specialized focus and integration with SBC's broader media and events network.
Security posture
The security maturity level is moderate. The site enforces HTTPS and uses domain status locks to prevent unauthorized changes. However, it lacks advanced DNS security (DNSSEC) and does not publish explicit security policies or incident response contacts. No security headers were detected, and there is no vulnerability disclosure mechanism. The cookie consent implementation aligns with GDPR requirements, but the absence of a privacy policy is a compliance gap. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analysis. Enhancing security headers, publishing security policies, and enabling DNSSEC would improve the security posture significantly.
Recommendations
Enable DNSSEC to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
Establish and publicize an incident response contact or security@ email for vulnerability reporting.
Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform with a well-maintained tech stack including jQuery, Swiper JS, and Matomo Analytics. Hosting and DNS are managed by reputable providers (GoDaddy and Cloudflare). Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. The site uses multiple plugins for GDPR compliance and advertising management. There is some technical debt in the form of missing DNSSEC and security headers, but overall the infrastructure supports a professional media platform. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and performance tuning for faster load times.
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.
