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

Pixsell is a leading Croatian photo and video agency specializing in providing tailored photo and video content to meet unique client needs. Established in 2008, the company holds a strong market position within the Croatian media sector, offering domestic and foreign content, stock media, and specialized services such as Halopix. The website reflects a professional digital presence built on modern Angular technology, integrating Google Analytics and reCAPTCHA for performance monitoring and security. However, the absence of explicit privacy and cookie policies indicates a compliance gap with GDPR and related regulations. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS and reCAPTCHA usage, but could be improved by adding security headers and incident response contacts. Overall, Pixsell presents a trustworthy and professional media service platform with room for enhanced privacy and security transparency.

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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  2. 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

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

Pixsell operates as an essential media agency in Croatia, targeting media professionals, journalists, and clients seeking high-quality photo and video content. Their business model revolves around content creation and licensing, supported by a well-structured website showcasing recent and historical media assets. The company leverages partnerships such as usluge.pixsell.hr for service extensions. The domain age and WHOIS data confirm a stable and legitimate operation. Growth indicators include diversified content categories and integration of modern web analytics. Strategic observations suggest focusing on compliance and expanding contact transparency to strengthen market trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforcement and Google reCAPTCHA integration to mitigate automated abuse. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of a published security policy or incident response contacts limit the security transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Compliance gaps exist due to missing privacy and cookie policies, which could expose the company to regulatory risks under GDPR. Incident response readiness appears minimal with no dedicated security contact information. Enhancing these areas would improve the overall security culture and reduce potential business impact from security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Provide clear contact information for security incidents and vulnerability disclosures, including a security.txt file.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerable libraries are used.
  5. Enhance user trust by adding visible trust indicators such as certifications, testimonials, or compliance badges.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built as a modern single-page application using Angular 11, leveraging CSS Grid for layout and Google Fonts for typography. It integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking and marketing purposes, and Google reCAPTCHA v3 for bot mitigation. Hosting appears to be managed via Croatian academic or regional IT providers, consistent with the domain registrar CARNET. Performance is moderate with good mobile responsiveness and basic accessibility features. SEO optimization is basic with meta tags present but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags detected. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and SEO improvements.
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.
