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

Nick.com is the official global website for Nickelodeon, a leading children's entertainment brand owned by Paramount Global. The site offers access to popular children's shows such as SpongeBob SquarePants, Dora, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, targeting a young audience and their families. The website is professionally designed with excellent content quality and consistent branding, reflecting its enterprise-level status in the media industry. Technically, the site leverages modern JavaScript frameworks like React and integrates industry-standard tools for analytics and cookie consent management, ensuring a responsive and performant user experience across devices. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement and security headers, although explicit privacy and terms of service pages are not evident in the provided content.

Overall, the site is trustworthy, safe for general audiences, and well-optimized for SEO and accessibility.

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 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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

  3. 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

Nick.com operates as a digital platform for Nickelodeon's media content distribution, focusing on children’s entertainment. The business model centers on content licensing, brand engagement, and digital media delivery. The site supports brand loyalty and audience engagement through multimedia content and interactive features. Market positioning is strong as a globally recognized children’s entertainment brand with a large enterprise backing. The absence of direct contact information suggests a focus on brand presentation rather than direct customer service via the website. The use of advanced marketing and tracking tools indicates a mature digital marketing strategy. The site’s ecosystem includes integration with Paramount Global’s broader digital infrastructure.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and cookie consent mechanisms compliant with privacy regulations. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the lack of visible privacy policy and terms of service pages, as well as absence of explicit security or incident response contact information, represents a compliance gap. There is no evidence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file. Overall, the site is secure for users but could improve transparency and compliance documentation to enhance trust and regulatory adherence.

Recommendations

  1. Publish clear and accessible privacy policy and terms of service pages linked from the homepage.
  2. Provide explicit contact information for security incidents and general inquiries to improve transparency.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet or exceed WCAG standards for broader compliance.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to mitigate potential security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using React and modern JavaScript tooling, including Webpack for bundling. It uses Adobe Alloy for analytics and OneTrust for cookie consent management, indicating a sophisticated technology stack. The site is optimized for performance with preloading of critical scripts and images, and responsive design techniques ensure excellent mobile optimization. Accessibility considerations are present but could be further enhanced. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph data, and structured JSON-LD markup. Hosting details are not explicitly available, but the use of multiple CDN domains and privacy-focused WHOIS suggests enterprise-grade hosting and content delivery infrastructure.
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.
