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

Media Broadcast is a leading German full-service provider specializing in broadcast and media solutions for television, radio, and digital platforms. The company offers a comprehensive range of services including signal transmission, network planning, professional services, and innovative 5G campus network solutions. Their market position as a leader in Germany's media infrastructure sector is supported by a professional and content-rich website that clearly targets broadcasters, media companies, and industrial clients. Technically, the website is built on the Squarespace platform, leveraging modern web technologies and optimized for mobile devices. The site demonstrates good SEO practices and moderate performance, with a cookie consent mechanism in place to comply with privacy regulations. However, the absence of a privacy policy and terms of service pages indicates gaps in privacy compliance. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS with HSTS and uses standard security headers, reflecting a good security posture. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The lack of a security policy or incident response contact information suggests room for improvement in security transparency and readiness. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and professional image but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security disclosures. The missing WHOIS data raises questions about domain registration legitimacy, warranting further verification. Strategic recommendations include publishing comprehensive privacy and security policies, adding incident response contacts, and improving accessibility features to strengthen compliance 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

3 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 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

  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

Media Broadcast operates as a full-service broadcast infrastructure provider in Germany, serving a broad client base including TV and radio broadcasters and industrial sectors interested in 5G technologies. Their competitive advantage lies in owning and operating one of the most advanced terrestrial TV networks globally and offering integrated network and managed services. The business model focuses on infrastructure services, network planning, and professional consulting, generating revenue through service contracts and managed solutions. The company maintains an active presence on professional social media platforms, enhancing brand visibility and customer engagement. Growth indicators include expansion into 5G campus networks, positioning the company at the forefront of emerging broadcast and telecommunications technologies.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS and HSTS, indicating strong transport layer security. Security headers are present, and no vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were identified. The cookie consent banner supports GDPR compliance, though the absence of a detailed privacy policy and security incident response information highlights compliance gaps. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are published, limiting transparency for security researchers. The site lacks explicit contact channels for security incidents, which could delay incident response. Overall, the security maturity is good but can be enhanced by formalizing security policies and incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy detailing data processing and GDPR compliance.
  2. Create and publish a security policy and incident response contact information.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Add explicit company phone numbers and physical address to improve contact transparency.
  5. Enhance website accessibility features to meet WCAG standards and improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Squarespace CMS platform, utilizing its built-in scripts and stylesheets. It uses Google Fonts (Inter) and SVG icons for UI elements. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and smooth animations. Performance is moderate, with deferred loading of scripts and optimized images. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Hosting is via Squarespace's CDN, ensuring reliable uptime and SSL termination. There is no evidence of third-party analytics or tracking services, indicating minimal user tracking. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, though opportunities exist to improve accessibility and privacy compliance.
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.
