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

NavalToday.com is a specialized online news platform delivering expert coverage and press releases focused on the naval, maritime, and offshore energy sectors. The website targets industry professionals and businesses seeking timely and relevant information about naval technology, vessels, and related industry developments. The business operates under Navingo BV and appears to have been active since at least 2020, positioning itself as a niche media provider within the maritime and energy industries. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern SEO and analytics tools such as Yoast SEO Premium, Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, and Google Tag Manager. It employs a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism powered by CookieYes, supporting GDPR compliance and user privacy preferences. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and features a professional design with clear navigation. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses cookie consent best practices. However, no explicit security headers were detected in the provided data, and there is no visible security policy or incident response information. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy, although the website content and branding appear professional and trustworthy. Overall, NavalToday.com demonstrates a solid digital presence with good content quality and privacy compliance but would benefit from enhanced transparency in domain registration and explicit security policies to strengthen trust and security posture.

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. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Ads

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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
    • 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

NavalToday.com operates as a focused industry news provider within the naval and offshore energy sectors, serving a medium-sized business entity under Navingo BV. The business model centers on delivering press releases, expert analysis, and industry news to professionals and companies in maritime and energy markets. The website is part of a network including offshore-energy.biz, offshorewind.biz, and dredgingtoday.com, indicating strategic partnerships within related maritime and energy domains. Revenue streams likely include advertising and sponsored content. The company maintains a consistent brand and professional content quality, supporting a high trust level among its target audience.

Security posture

The website maintains a good security baseline with HTTPS and a robust cookie consent mechanism that supports GDPR compliance. However, the lack of detected security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others suggests room for improvement in hardening the site against common web threats. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is publicly available, which could hinder rapid response to security issues. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a notable risk factor, as it impairs domain legitimacy verification and may raise concerns among security-conscious users or partners. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced with additional transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive security headers to improve protection against common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a clear privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the homepage to enhance compliance and user trust.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure transparency and legitimacy.
  4. Establish and publicize an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy, including a security.txt file.
  5. Continue to monitor and optimize website performance and accessibility to maintain a high-quality user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using Yoast SEO Premium for search optimization and Google Tag Manager for analytics management. It integrates multiple analytics services including Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity, and uses CookieYes for GDPR-compliant cookie consent management. The site is mobile responsive and employs modern CSS and JavaScript libraries such as jQuery. Advertising is managed via Google DoubleClick and Microsoft Advertising networks. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading and optimized images. Technical risks include missing security headers and incomplete WHOIS data, which could impact trust and security posture.
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.
