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.
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"
This scan found 17 issues across 6 checks. Monitoring re-runs those checks daily, emails you when something material changes and records each fix, so you can show progress.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The platform leverages WordPress CMS with SEO and advertising plugins to maintain a professional online presence. It uses modern analytics tools such as Matomo and Google Tag Manager to monitor user engagement and optimize marketing efforts. The absence of explicit contact information and privacy policies suggests areas for improvement in transparency and compliance. The website's external links to social media platforms indicate an active engagement strategy. However, the lack of WHOIS data raises questions about domain registration legitimacy, which could impact trust among discerning users or partners.
Security posture
The website employs HTTPS with good SSL configuration, ensuring encrypted communications. Cookie consent mechanisms are in place, reflecting awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of security headers and vulnerability disclosure policies indicates room for enhancement in security best practices. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The site would benefit from publishing clear privacy, terms of service, and security policies to strengthen compliance and user trust. Implementing a security.txt file and additional HTTP security headers would further improve the security posture.
Recommendations
Publish comprehensive privacy and terms of service pages to improve compliance and user trust.
Implement additional HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options.
Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and incident response.
Provide clear and accessible contact information including company emails and phone numbers.
Regularly audit WHOIS registration details to ensure domain legitimacy and transparency.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built on a WordPress platform using a modern tech stack including Google Tag Manager, Matomo analytics, and advanced ad management plugins. The site demonstrates good SEO practices with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine visibility. Performance is moderate with mobile optimization rated good, though accessibility features are basic and could be improved. The site uses multiple external domains for fonts, analytics, and advertising, which is typical for media websites. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional user experience but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and security configurations.
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.
