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 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"

  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

The company operates in the technology and finance sectors, focusing on virtual event management services tailored for investor relations, corporate engagement, and financial institutions. Their business model is service-oriented, offering both managed and self-service platforms, including Zoom Events and OE Studio. The presence of global partnerships and a comprehensive service menu positions them competitively in the virtual events market. Their digital marketing ecosystem is robust, utilizing multiple ad networks and tracking services to optimize outreach. The company maintains active social media channels on LinkedIn, Twitter, and YouTube, enhancing brand visibility and client engagement.

Security posture

OpenExchange demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protection in place. The website uses security plugins to mitigate common WordPress vulnerabilities, and no exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and there is no publicly visible security policy or incident response contact information, which are areas for enhancement. The extensive use of third-party scripts and tracking pixels necessitates continuous security audits to prevent supply chain risks. Overall, the security posture is strong but could benefit from formalized policies and improved DNS security.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options.
  4. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate supply chain vulnerabilities.
  5. Improve website accessibility compliance to broaden user inclusivity and meet regulatory standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery, Swiper, AOS, Select2, and integrations with HubSpot and Google Tag Manager. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices implemented via Yoast SEO Premium. Hosting is provided by Bluehost Inc., and DNS is managed via Cloudflare name servers, though DNSSEC is not enabled. The site uses multiple marketing and analytics scripts, which while beneficial for business intelligence, require vigilant security management. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable online presence but could be optimized further for speed and accessibility.
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.
