The Międzynarodowy Festiwal Komiksu i Gier w Łodzi website represents a well-established cultural event focused on comics and games, primarily targeting creators and enthusiasts in Poland and Central-Eastern Europe. The festival is the largest of its kind in the region, with a history dating back to 2006 for the domain and earlier for the event itself. The site offers multilingual support, event information, contests, and partner links, reflecting a mature digital presence. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with common plugins and tracking tools such as Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel, indicating a standard but effective infrastructure. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled but could be improved by adding DNSSEC and security headers.

Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy with room for security enhancements.

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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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 festival holds a leading market position in Poland and Central-Eastern Europe for comics and gaming events. Its business model revolves around event organization, ticket sales, contests, and partnerships with cultural and commercial entities. The target audience includes creators, fans, and industry participants. The website supports growth through digital marketing and social media engagement. Partnerships with ticketing platforms and other festivals enhance its ecosystem. The absence of direct contact details on the homepage suggests a focus on event promotion rather than direct sales or support via the website. The site’s longevity and domain age support its established market presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data exposure. However, the lack of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options indicates potential areas for improvement. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, which could be a compliance gap. The use of third-party tracking scripts is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for privacy compliance. Overall, the site is secure enough for its purpose but would benefit from enhanced security controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and compliance.
  4. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance by detailing data retention policies and providing clearer user consent options.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a WordPress CMS with a range of plugins for social media feeds, popups, and galleries. It employs jQuery and modern JavaScript libraries for UI and tracking. The site is hosted on servers associated with seohost.pl, with domain registration through a Polish registrar. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of analytics scripts. Mobile optimization is good with responsive CSS and viewport settings. SEO is supported by meta tags, Open Graph, and Twitter Cards. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with ARIA roles and better keyboard navigation support. The technical stack is standard for event websites but could be modernized with newer frameworks and enhanced security practices.
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.
