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. 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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

OpenTable Taiwan holds a strong market position as a premier restaurant reservation service in Taiwan, supported by a large network of restaurants and international brand recognition. The business model centers on facilitating online bookings and restaurant discovery, targeting a broad consumer base. The company benefits from a global ecosystem of sister sites and partners, including mobile app tracking providers. The platform's comprehensive content and localized offerings indicate a mature digital presence with potential for further growth. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers on the main site suggests reliance on help portals for customer support, which aligns with scalable digital service models.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, robust security headers, and CSRF protection mechanisms. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of a public security policy or incident response contact channels represents a compliance gap and an opportunity for improvement. Privacy compliance is well addressed with comprehensive privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. The site’s integration with reputable analytics and consent platforms further supports its security and privacy maturity. Overall, the security risks are low, but transparency enhancements are recommended.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Enhance direct contact information availability for improved customer trust and support.
  5. Continue monitoring and updating third-party libraries and tracking tools to mitigate emerging vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack featuring React and Apollo GraphQL, enabling dynamic and responsive user experiences. Integration with analytics (Mixpanel, Facebook Pixel) and consent management (OneTrust) tools reflects a mature digital marketing infrastructure. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO enhancement and supports multiple international domains for global reach. Performance is moderate with preconnect and dns-prefetch optimizations, though further performance tuning could improve load times. Accessibility and mobile optimization are good, supporting a wide range of users. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting details are not disclosed but the presence of multiple CDN domains indicates use of content delivery networks for scalability.
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.
