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

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  2. 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

MSC Crociere operates as a subsidiary of MSC Cruises S.A., targeting the European cruise market with a focus on Italy. The business model centers on providing cruise vacations with value-added services such as onboard entertainment, dining, and excursions. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem with regional websites for various countries, enhancing market reach. Revenue streams likely include cruise ticket sales, onboard purchases, and loyalty program incentives. The website's multilingual and multi-regional structure indicates a strategic approach to global market penetration. The presence of advanced marketing and analytics tools suggests a data-driven approach to customer engagement and retention.

Security posture

The website employs strong security measures including HTTPS with excellent SSL configuration, comprehensive security headers, and modern service worker implementations for performance and security. Consent management is handled via Didomi, ensuring GDPR compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a publicly available security policy, vulnerability disclosure program, or incident response contact information represents a gap in transparency and readiness. The site would benefit from publishing these documents to enhance trust and preparedness. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be improved with better public communication of security practices.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate supply chain risks.
  5. Enhance transparency around data retention policies and user privacy controls.

The website is built on a modern technology stack featuring Vue.js for frontend interactivity, Marketo for marketing automation, Adobe Launch for tag management, and Dynatrace for performance monitoring. Hosting and CDN services are provided by Akamai, ensuring fast global delivery and resilience. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags, canonical links, and structured data (JSON-LD). The use of service workers and preloading techniques indicates a focus on performance optimization. No technical debt or deprecated technologies were observed, suggesting ongoing maintenance and modernization efforts.
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.
