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

5 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"

    • 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. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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

Playable operates in the technology sector, targeting enterprise marketers seeking innovative engagement solutions. Its business model centers on SaaS delivery of gamification tools, supported by integrations with major marketing platforms and analytics services. The company emphasizes data security and privacy compliance, evidenced by ISO certification and GDPR-aligned policies. Partnerships with Cookie Information, HubSpot, Vimeo, Microsoft, LinkedIn, and Facebook enhance its marketing and tracking capabilities. Customer success stories and industry badges reinforce its competitive advantage. The company is medium-sized, based in Denmark, and maintains consistent branding and quality content to support growth and customer trust.

Security posture

Playable exhibits a mature security posture with key strengths including ISO 27001:2022 certification, robust SPF and DMARC email authentication with reject policies, and use of TLS 1.3 and 1.2 protocols without known vulnerabilities like Heartbleed or FREAK. The presence of a detailed cookie consent mechanism and privacy policies indicates strong data protection practices. However, the absence of DNSSEC, HSTS, OCSP stapling, and incomplete CAA records represent areas for enhancement. No explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies were found, which could be a compliance gap. Overall, the security culture appears proactive but could benefit from formalizing incident response and improving DNS and HTTPS security controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce HTTPS and prevent downgrade attacks.
  2. Implement DNSSEC to protect DNS integrity and prevent spoofing or cache poisoning attacks.
  3. Enable OCSP stapling to improve TLS certificate revocation checking performance and security.
  4. Correct and define CAA DNS records to restrict certificate issuance to authorized CAs.
  5. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
Technical notes

Notes

Playable's technical infrastructure is based on WordPress CMS hosted on Google Cloud with DNS managed by AWS Route53. The site uses modern web standards including TLS 1.3, asynchronous loading of analytics and marketing scripts, and lazy loading for media assets. SEO is enhanced by Yoast SEO plugin and structured data in JSON-LD format. Performance is moderate with a page load time of approximately 4.2 seconds and 57 resources loaded. Mobile optimization and accessibility are good, supported by responsive design and ARIA attributes. The technology stack includes integrations with HubSpot, Vimeo, Microsoft Bing, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Cookie Information for consent management. Technical risks include lack of DNSSEC and HSTS, and incomplete certificate transparency compliance, which could impact security and trust.
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.
