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.

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

PING maintains a strong market position as a leading golf equipment brand with a large product catalog and specialized services such as custom fitting and trade-in programs. Their target audience includes golfers across demographics, including juniors and women. The company leverages partnerships with PLD Putters and WebFit for specialized product lines and fitting services, enhancing their ecosystem. Revenue streams are primarily from direct e-commerce sales and service offerings. The website's integration of multiple analytics and marketing tools indicates a mature digital marketing strategy. The absence of explicit incident response or security policy pages suggests an area for improvement in transparency. The domain's long registration history and consistent WHOIS data reinforce business credibility.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, domain status flags preventing unauthorized transfers, and use of reputable payment processing via BrainTree. Consent management is handled by Osano, supporting GDPR compliance. The site uses Application Insights and Segment for monitoring and analytics, indicating active operational security monitoring. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a minor security gap. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are found, limiting external security communication. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is strong but could benefit from enhanced transparency and DNS security improvements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options if not already implemented.

Notes

The website is built on ASP.NET WebForms with Kentico CMS, hosted likely on Microsoft Azure, leveraging a modern JavaScript tech stack including Segment, CustomerIO, and Algolia for search. The site uses Application Insights for telemetry and monitoring, and integrates with BrainTree for payment processing. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. The site includes comprehensive meta tags and Open Graph data for SEO and social sharing. The presence of multiple analytics and marketing tools indicates a mature digital infrastructure. Technical risks are minimal, with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Opportunities exist to modernize some legacy ASP.NET components and enhance DNS security.
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.
