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

Modern Times Group (MTG) is a well-established international gaming group headquartered in Sweden, focused on owning and operating multiple gaming studios with popular global intellectual properties across casual and mid-core gaming genres. The company actively drives industry consolidation and strategic acquisitions, positioning itself as a significant player in the gaming sector. The website reflects a mature corporate presence with detailed investor relations, governance, and sustainability information, supporting its Nasdaq Stockholm listing under MTGA and MTGB symbols. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern SEO and analytics tools, including Yoast SEO and Matomo, and incorporates a robust cookie consent mechanism via OneTrust, indicating good privacy compliance. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and security headers present, though explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not published, representing an area for improvement. The absence of WHOIS data reduces transparency but does not detract significantly from the overall legitimacy given the company's public market presence and comprehensive website content.

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"

    • 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. 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

MTG operates in the technology sector, specifically gaming, with a business model centered on studio ownership, game development, publishing, and strategic investments. Its portfolio includes six key subsidiaries, each specializing in different gaming niches, from strategy and simulation to racing and word games. The company targets investors, gaming professionals, and enthusiasts, leveraging its Nasdaq listing to attract capital and maintain transparency. The website's detailed governance and investor sections, along with scheduled capital markets events, demonstrate a strong commitment to investor relations and corporate governance. The global footprint and international culture support growth and consolidation strategies in the competitive gaming market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced, multiple security headers, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. The use of a consent management platform aligns with GDPR requirements, enhancing privacy compliance. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response procedures, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms limits transparency and may hinder rapid incident communication. No critical vulnerabilities or outdated libraries were detected in the provided content. The security score is high but could be improved by adding explicit security documentation and contact channels for security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and trust.
  2. Add clear contact information for security incidents, such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance visibility of company contact details to support compliance and user trust.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and analytics tools to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

The presence of OneTrust scripts confirms active cookie consent management. The site is mobile optimized with good accessibility features and a clear navigation structure.

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.
