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

7 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

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  2. 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"

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

Nosalty.hu holds a dominant position in the Hungarian online recipe market, leveraging its parent company Central Médiacsoport Zrt.'s media expertise. The business model is primarily advertising-driven, supported by partnerships with major ad networks like Adocean and Criteo. The platform's extensive social media presence across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and Pinterest enhances brand reach and user engagement. The site targets a broad demographic of home cooks and food enthusiasts in Hungary, offering both free content and user-generated recipes. Strategic partnerships with domains like startlogin.hu for privacy management and sales.centralmediacsoport.hu for media sales indicate a mature ecosystem. The platform's growth is supported by continuous content updates, SEO optimization, and a strong technical foundation.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, integrated GDPR-compliant consent management, and use of reputable third-party analytics and advertising services. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options were not explicitly found in the provided data and should be confirmed. There is no public security policy or incident response contact information, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. Overall, the site follows best practices for web security and privacy but could benefit from publishing formal security documentation and incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Verify and explicitly implement security headers like CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and user trust.
  3. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate risks from external libraries.
  4. Enhance data retention disclosures related to analytics and tracking for improved privacy compliance.
  5. Maintain and update consent management mechanisms to align with evolving GDPR and ePrivacy regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack centered around React with ES6 modules, supported by Google Tag Manager and Google Publisher Tags for analytics and advertising. Integration with multiple ad networks and tracking services like Criteo, Gemius, and InMobi CMP indicates a sophisticated marketing infrastructure. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive images and accessible navigation. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in load times by optimizing third-party scripts. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting details are not explicit but likely managed by a professional provider given the site's scale. Technical risks include dependency on multiple third-party scripts which require ongoing security monitoring.
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.
