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.

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 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

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

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 Media holds a strong market position as part of the Grupa Polsat Plus, serving as a key player in Poland's media advertising sector. Their competitive advantage lies in their extensive channel portfolio and established brand presence. Revenue streams likely derive from advertising sales across TV channels and digital media. The target customer segments include advertisers seeking nationwide and thematic TV audiences. Growth indicators include active content updates and integration with multiple marketing and analytics platforms. The partnership ecosystem includes Grupa Polsat Plus and adFlow, among others. Strategic observations suggest the company maintains a solid operational base but could benefit from enhanced digital security and privacy compliance to strengthen market trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data. However, the use of an outdated jQuery version introduces potential vulnerabilities. The absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. There is no visible vulnerability disclosure or incident response contact information, which could hinder timely security issue reporting. Privacy compliance is partially addressed via a privacy policy PDF, but the lack of a cookie consent mechanism is a compliance gap under GDPR. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not evident from the website content. Overall, the security posture is functional but requires improvements to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Upgrade jQuery and other JavaScript libraries to their latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  3. Introduce a clear cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with GDPR and improve user privacy transparency.
  4. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible security reporting.
  5. Enhance privacy policy visibility and include data retention and user rights information to strengthen GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional technology stack centered around jQuery 1.11.0, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook SDK, and Gemius tracking scripts. The site employs a jQuery Cycle2 slideshow plugin for dynamic content display. While functional, the use of an outdated jQuery version poses security risks and indicates technical debt. The site is moderately optimized for mobile devices and accessibility, but lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features. Hosting provider and CMS are not explicitly identified. Performance is moderate, with multiple external scripts potentially impacting load times. There is an opportunity to modernize the tech stack, improve performance, and enhance accessibility and SEO to better serve users and advertisers.
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.
