Risk levelMedium

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

McCourt Global, Inc is a private family-owned company with a long-standing legacy since 1893, focused on diversified sectors including real estate, sports, technology, media, and capital investment. The company emphasizes social impact and community value alongside financial results, led by Executive Chairman Frank McCourt and an international leadership team. The website reflects a mature business with strong branding, comprehensive content, and clear navigation targeting investors, partners, and community stakeholders. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern SEO and accessibility practices, but suffers from critical security shortcomings due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and HTTPS support. This exposes the site and its users to significant risks. Privacy compliance is well addressed with a cookie consent mechanism and a comprehensive privacy policy. Business credibility is high, supported by philanthropic initiatives and partnerships with academic institutions. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but urgently requires security improvements to protect its digital presence.

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 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

    • 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

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

McCourt Global holds a strong market position as a multi-generational family business with diversified investments and operations in real estate development, sports team ownership (notably the Los Angeles Dodgers and Olympique de Marseille), and technology innovation through Project Liberty. The company leverages philanthropic efforts and strategic partnerships to enhance its brand and social impact. Its business model integrates capital investment with community and social value creation, targeting a broad audience including investors, civic leaders, and technology innovators. The company has demonstrated growth through acquisitions, new initiatives like Project Liberty Labs, and global expansion. The website content and linked domains reveal a well-established partnership ecosystem and a focus on sustainable and inclusive development.

Security posture

The website's security posture is weak due to the lack of a valid SSL certificate and absence of HTTPS, which is a critical vulnerability. No modern TLS protocols are enabled, and security headers such as HSTS are missing. While SPF and DMARC records are properly configured for email security, the lack of HTTPS undermines user trust and exposes data to interception. No explicit security or incident response policies are published on the site, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are found. The site uses Matomo analytics, which is privacy-conscious, and a cookie consent banner is present, indicating some attention to privacy compliance. Immediate remediation of SSL/TLS issues is essential to improve security and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and install a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and disable deprecated protocols.
  3. Implement HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload directives.
  4. Enable OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve security and performance.
  5. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency.
  6. Regularly audit and update DNS and email security records to maintain integrity.
  7. Continue to maintain and improve privacy compliance with clear cookie and data policies.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Yoast SEO plugin for search optimization and Matomo for analytics, indicating a modern and privacy-aware technology stack. Hosting appears to be on Amazon AWS infrastructure. The site includes multimedia content such as embedded Vimeo videos and uses Google Fonts for typography. Performance is slow with a load time of over 7 seconds, which could be improved by optimizing resources and caching. The site is mobile optimized and accessible with good navigation clarity. Technical debt is moderate due to missing SSL and security headers, which pose risks to business operations and user trust. Modernization efforts should prioritize security hardening and performance optimization to enhance user experience and protect corporate assets.
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.
