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

The Nemzeti Sportfejlesztési és Módszertani Intézet (Sportintézet) is a Hungarian government-affiliated institution focused on advancing elite sports through applied science, health, diagnostics, analytics, dietetics, and education. It complements existing sports infrastructure and club work to accelerate Olympic sports development in Hungary. The website is professionally designed using WordPress and Elementor, with good navigation and mobile optimization. It employs modern SEO practices and includes a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and no visible vulnerabilities, though security headers and incident response contacts could be improved. Overall, the site reflects a legitimate, medium-sized government entity with a clear mission and target audience.

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

6 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  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

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

The Sportintézet operates as a government entity in Hungary, providing comprehensive support services to elite athletes and sports organizations. Its business model centers on resource integration and scientific support for sports development. The website indicates a focus on transparency and compliance, with clear contact information and privacy policies. The institution is positioned as a national leader in sports science and administration, targeting professional athletes, coaches, and sports bodies. The lack of commercial advertising or affiliate programs aligns with its government status. The presence of partner domains such as nsmi.hu and kozadat.hu suggests collaboration within the public sector ecosystem.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, cookie consent, and no exposed sensitive data. However, it lacks explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and does not provide a security policy or incident response contact information. No vulnerabilities or outdated libraries were detected in the HTML content. The use of reputable plugins and frameworks reduces risk, but ongoing monitoring and enhancement of security headers and incident response readiness are recommended to maintain compliance and resilience.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page including incident response contacts to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Elementor page builder and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and flexible technical infrastructure. It uses jQuery and Google Analytics for interactivity and analytics. The site loads with moderate performance and good mobile responsiveness. The presence of cookie consent and GDPR compliance plugins shows attention to privacy regulations. No hosting provider details were found in the HTML. The technical stack is standard for government websites, balancing ease of content management with compliance and user experience. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and accessibility compliance.
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.
