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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

pressrelations holds a strong market position as a leading media monitoring and analysis provider with a broad international footprint and a diverse client base including major corporations like Samsung and Generali. Their business model combines SaaS platforms with expert consulting, targeting B2B clients in the media and communications sector. The company leverages AI technology to enhance service offerings and maintain competitive advantage. Their partnership ecosystem includes integrations with major analytics and social platforms. Growth indicators include recent office expansions and continuous product development. The company maintains a professional brand image with consistent messaging and trust signals such as client testimonials and certifications.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and privacy-focused cookie management. Tracking technologies are implemented with anonymization and user consent. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, explicit security headers like Content Security Policy and HSTS are not evident, representing an area for improvement. There is no public security policy or incident response contact information, which could enhance transparency and readiness. Compliance with GDPR is indicated through privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from additional hardening and disclosure.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive security headers such as CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Establish and publicly disclose a security policy and incident response contact channels to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking technologies to ensure compliance with privacy regulations and minimize tracking risks.
  5. Enhance WHOIS data transparency if possible to improve domain trustworthiness and reduce suspicion from missing registration information.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the TYPO3 CMS platform, a mature and flexible content management system. It uses modern web technologies including compressed CSS and JavaScript assets for performance optimization. Integration with Google Tag Manager, Hotjar, and social media pixels indicates a sophisticated analytics and marketing infrastructure. The site is mobile responsive with good accessibility and SEO practices, including proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in loading speed. No hosting provider details were identified from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable web presence.
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.
