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

3 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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

NetEnt operates primarily in the technology sector, providing B2B gaming solutions to regulated online gaming operators. Its competitive advantages include a broad portfolio of games, pooled jackpots, branded games, and comprehensive back-office services. The company benefits from a strong regulatory framework with licenses from the UK Gambling Commission, Malta Gaming Authority, and Gibraltar authorities, enhancing trust and market access. Revenue streams likely derive from licensing fees, service contracts, and gaming royalties. The target customer segments include online casinos and gaming operators in regulated markets. Growth indicators include multi-awarded status and recent acquisition by Evolution, a major industry player. The partnership ecosystem includes Evolution as the parent company, with subsidiaries in multiple jurisdictions. Strategic observations highlight a focus on compliance, responsible gaming, and continuous innovation in gaming technology.

Security posture

NetEnt's security maturity is solid, with HTTPS enforced site-wide, integration of Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate automated abuse, and a cookie consent banner supporting privacy compliance. The absence of explicit security policies and incident response contacts suggests room for improvement in transparency and readiness communication. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party analytics and tracking pixels is balanced with privacy mechanisms. Overall, the security posture supports business continuity and regulatory compliance but would benefit from publishing a security.txt file and enhancing HTTP security headers to further harden the site.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  2. Implement and expose a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  3. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and libraries to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Improve accessibility features to ensure compliance with standards and enhance user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages WordPress CMS with a modern front-end stack including jQuery, Modernizr, Owl Carousel, and Fancybox for UI components. Analytics and marketing tools include Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel, integrated with cookie consent mechanisms. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses asynchronous loading for scripts to improve performance. Hosting details are not explicitly identified but the site uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. Technical debt appears low, but opportunities exist to modernize accessibility and security headers. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable online presence.
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.
