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

Oxygen is a well-established media brand specializing in true crime television programming, owned by NBCUniversal. The website serves as a digital platform for streaming full episodes, providing crime news, and distributing related podcasts. It targets a general audience interested in true crime content and operates within the media industry. The site demonstrates a mature technical infrastructure leveraging Drupal 10 CMS, advanced analytics, and consent management tools, reflecting a high level of digital maturity. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement, consent mechanisms, and integration with trusted ad and analytics platforms, though explicit security headers should be verified. The absence of WHOIS data is a minor concern but likely due to privacy protection or query limitations. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and compliant with privacy regulations.

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

2 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. 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 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

Oxygen holds a competitive position as a niche true crime content provider within the larger NBCUniversal portfolio. Its business model focuses on content streaming, advertising revenue, and brand engagement through podcasts and news. The site integrates with multiple NBCUniversal partner domains, enhancing its ecosystem reach. The use of advanced marketing and analytics tools indicates a data-driven approach to audience targeting and monetization. While direct contact information is limited on the homepage, the presence of comprehensive privacy and cookie policies supports regulatory compliance. The brand's consistent design and content quality reinforce its market credibility.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security foundation with enforced HTTPS, use of OneTrust for cookie consent, and Adobe Pass for authentication. The inclusion of multiple third-party scripts necessitates ongoing vigilance to prevent vulnerabilities. Security headers are implied but not explicitly confirmed in the HTML; their implementation should be audited. No sensitive data exposure or vulnerabilities were detected in the analyzed content. Incident response and security policy documentation are not publicly evident, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from explicit documentation and header verification.

Recommendations

  1. Conduct a thorough audit to confirm all recommended security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) are implemented.
  2. Publish or link to a dedicated security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Regularly review and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards and improve user experience for all users.
  5. Consider providing clearer contact information for business and security inquiries to facilitate communication.

Technical notes

Notes

The site is built on Drupal 10, a modern and robust CMS, ensuring maintainability and scalability. It employs a comprehensive tech stack including Google Tag Manager, Adobe Launch, mParticle, and multiple ad networks, indicating sophisticated marketing and analytics capabilities. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. Hosting appears to be managed within NBCUniversal's infrastructure, providing reliability. Some technical debt may exist in the form of numerous third-party scripts which require careful management. Opportunities exist to enhance accessibility and security header implementation to further strengthen the technical posture.
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.
