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

Mediaboard.com is a well-established media intelligence and PR platform offering a comprehensive suite of services including media monitoring, social media listening, media analytics, and press release publishing. The company targets PR professionals, marketing teams, and corporate communications departments, serving over 2000 clients including major global brands. The website is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and SEO-friendly, reflecting a mature digital presence. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with Elementor and integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, and Cookiebot for consent management. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and Cloudflare DNS, though DNSSEC is not enabled and security headers are not explicitly detected. Privacy compliance is partial, with cookie consent implemented but no visible privacy policy or terms of service on the main site. Contact information is limited to a contact form without direct emails or phone numbers. Overall, the domain registration data supports legitimacy with a long domain age and consistent registration details.

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 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"

  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 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

Mediaboard holds a strong market position in the media intelligence sector, leveraging a SaaS business model with a focus on PR and marketing professionals. Its competitive advantage lies in its integrated platform combining monitoring, analytics, and publishing tools. The company demonstrates growth and trust through its extensive client base and partnerships with recognized brands. The website content and structure support lead generation and customer engagement, with clear calls to action such as demo requests and free trials. The absence of direct contact details may indicate a focus on inbound digital leads. The company appears to operate internationally, supported by multi-language site versions and global media monitoring capabilities.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and uses Cloudflare for DNS and likely CDN services, enhancing security and performance. Cookie consent is managed via Cookiebot, indicating GDPR awareness. However, the lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS reduce the overall security robustness. No explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are published, which could be improved to enhance transparency and trust. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content analysis. The security score is good but could be improved with additional hardening and policy disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the main navigation or footer.
  2. Implement DNSSEC to secure DNS resolution and prevent spoofing.
  3. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide explicit security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  5. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using Elementor for page building. It integrates multiple third-party analytics and marketing tools, including Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, Dreamdata Analytics, LinkedIn Insight Tag, and Seznam Analytics. Cookie consent is managed by Cookiebot, ensuring compliance with GDPR cookie requirements. The site is hosted behind Cloudflare DNS, providing DNS management and likely CDN services. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is well implemented with Yoast SEO plugin and structured data in JSON-LD format. The site uses multiple language versions, indicating internationalization efforts. Technical risks are low but could be further mitigated by enabling DNSSEC and improving security headers.
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.
