Polsat Box is a prominent Polish media and telecommunications company specializing in digital television subscription services. The website serves as a portal for customers to explore offerings, manage subscriptions, and access support. The site is professionally designed with good content quality and clear navigation, targeting Polish consumers interested in media services. Technically, the website employs modern JavaScript frameworks, cookie consent tools, and Google Tag Manager for analytics, indicating a mature digital infrastructure.

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. 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 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube

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

  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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

Polsat Box operates in the media and telecommunications sectors, offering subscription-based digital television services primarily to the Polish market. The business model relies on recurring revenue from subscriptions. The company maintains a professional online presence with consistent branding and trust signals such as privacy and cookie policies. The website integrates marketing and analytics tools to support customer acquisition and retention. Lack of publicly available WHOIS data and direct contact details suggests a focus on controlled communication channels, possibly to streamline customer interactions. The company appears well-positioned in its market with a large audience base.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms in place, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of visible security headers like Content-Security-Policy and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts indicate areas for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The use of third-party scripts such as Google Tag Manager and OneTrust requires ongoing monitoring to mitigate supply chain risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be enhanced by adopting additional best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response contact information.
  2. Add and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Verify and publish WHOIS domain registration details to improve trust and transparency.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern web technologies including JavaScript modules, Tailwind CSS, and OneTrust for cookie management. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and includes mechanisms to capture UTM parameters for marketing attribution. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. No CMS or hosting provider information was detected. The site lacks explicit accessibility features but maintains good SEO practices with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Technical debt appears low, but security header implementation and WHOIS transparency are areas for technical improvement.
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.
