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

iTech Labs is a well-established accredited testing laboratory specializing in certification and quality assurance testing for online gaming systems globally. Founded in 2001, the company serves a broad international clientele including major online gaming companies and regulators. Their service portfolio includes compliance testing, QA testing, and professional consulting services, positioning them as a leading authority in the online gaming certification industry. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with clear navigation and multilingual support, indicating a mature digital presence. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern SEO and analytics tools, hosted on Oracle Cloud DNS infrastructure. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protections, though improvements such as enabling DNSSEC and publishing security policies are recommended. Privacy compliance is partially addressed via cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks explicit privacy and terms of service documentation in the provided data. Overall, the domain registration data aligns well with the business claims, supporting a high legitimacy score.

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. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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 company operates in the technology sector, focusing on online gaming compliance and quality assurance. Their competitive advantages include a long operational history, accreditation status, and a global presence with multilingual offerings. The business model is service-oriented, targeting online gaming operators and regulators. Revenue streams likely derive from testing services, audits, and consulting. The presence of multiple language subdomains and social media engagement suggests active market outreach and client support. Strategic partnerships or subsidiaries are not explicitly identified beyond language-specific domains. The company demonstrates strong market positioning as a trusted testing authority with a comprehensive service suite.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and domain status set to clientTransferProhibited, enhancing domain security. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended best practice to prevent DNS spoofing. No explicit security headers were detected in the provided data, indicating room for improvement in HTTP security configurations. The site uses cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR principles, but lacks published security policies or incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the analysis. Overall, the security posture is good but could be strengthened by implementing additional security headers, DNSSEC, and publishing formal security and incident response documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing attacks.
  2. Implement and configure HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  4. Develop and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance by clearly documenting data retention policies and user data handling practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using the Avada theme, supported by jQuery and enhanced with SEO via Yoast SEO Premium plugin. Google Analytics is integrated through the MonsterInsights plugin with event tracking for media content including YouTube and Vimeo videos. Hosting is supported by Oracle Cloud DNS infrastructure, indicating a reliable hosting environment. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices, though accessibility features are basic and could be improved. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by rich media and third-party scripts. There is no indication of technical debt or deprecated libraries, but security-related technical enhancements are advisable to maintain robustness.
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.
