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 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

    • 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

  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"

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

The company NET Média Zrt. operates multiple media properties including Portfolio.hu and subsidiaries like Pénzcentrum, Sportonline, Hellovidék, and Agrárszektor, positioning itself as a major media group in Hungary's financial and general news sectors. The website's revenue streams include advertising, premium subscriptions, and event sponsorships. The target customers are investors, financial professionals, and the economically interested public. The presence of structured data, social media integration, and premium content indicates a mature digital media operation with a strong market presence in Hungary.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses a consent management platform for GDPR compliance, indicating a good security baseline. It employs multiple security and analytics scripts from reputable providers. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, explicit privacy policy and terms of service pages were not found in the provided content, which is a compliance gap. There is no visible security.txt or vulnerability disclosure mechanism. Security headers appear to be present but not explicitly detailed. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved with clearer policies and incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Publish and link comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages prominently on the website.
  2. Add explicit contact information for security incidents and data protection officer details to improve compliance and trust.
  3. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosures and improve security transparency.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and advertising networks to minimize security risks.
  5. Enhance HTTP security headers explicitly (e.g., Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options) to strengthen protection.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including jQuery, Moment.js, Firebase services, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Gemius Audience, and multiple advertising networks such as AdOcean and InMobi. It integrates a consent management platform compliant with TCF 2.2. The site is mobile-optimized and uses responsive images and structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and ads. The site lacks a detected CMS but likely uses a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not explicit. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional media operation with room for performance tuning and security header enhancements.
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.
