Lexington Sporting Club operates as a youth and professional soccer club, providing community engagement through its academy and pro team. The club is positioned within the USL Gainbridge Super League network, indicating a recognized presence in regional soccer. The website is built on WordPress with modern SEO and analytics tools, reflecting a moderate level of digital maturity. The technical infrastructure includes standard security practices such as HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, though explicit security and incident response policies are not publicly available.

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.

  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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

  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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Lexington Sporting Club targets youth and professional soccer players and fans, operating primarily as a sports club with academy training and a professional team. Its business model revolves around community engagement and competitive soccer opportunities. The club benefits from partnerships within the USL network, enhancing its market position. Revenue streams likely include memberships, training fees, and event participation. The website's integration with multiple league sites and social media channels indicates a well-established partnership ecosystem. Growth potential is supported by expansion teams and league affiliations. Strategic observations suggest focusing on increasing direct contact availability and publishing comprehensive security and privacy policies to strengthen trust.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with good SSL configuration and security headers, indicating a baseline security posture. Cookie consent is implemented via Osano, supporting privacy compliance. However, no explicit security policy or incident response information is published, which could hinder transparency and readiness in case of incidents. The use of multiple third-party scripts and ad networks introduces potential risk vectors that require ongoing monitoring. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Compliance with GDPR is suggested by the privacy policy and cookie banner. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, with recommendations to formalize security policies and incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Enhance website accessibility features to meet broader compliance standards.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and ad networks to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider implementing a public vulnerability disclosure program to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including React for frontend components, Yoast SEO for optimization, and HubSpot for marketing and analytics. It integrates multiple external services such as Google Tag Manager, Osano for cookie consent, and various ad networks. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and social media integration. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts which require vigilant security management. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and formalize security documentation to reduce technical debt and enhance operational resilience.
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.
