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

3 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

  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

  • 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

Profimedia operates in the media sector, targeting media professionals, marketing agencies, and commercial clients requiring high-quality images and videos. Their business model revolves around licensing and distribution of digital media content, supported by a large network of photographers and partnerships like Shutterstock. The company’s extensive image database and daily addition of new content indicate strong growth and market leadership. Their services cover a broad spectrum from licensing to custom photography and exhibitions, catering to diverse client needs. The website’s professional design and clear contact information reflect a mature business operation with a focus on customer engagement and trust.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and a Content Security Policy in place, mitigating common web threats. No sensitive data is exposed in the HTML content, and third-party scripts are limited to reputable services like Google Analytics and Smartsupp Chat. However, the absence of additional security headers such as X-Frame-Options and Strict-Transport-Security suggests room for improvement. There is no public incident response or security policy page, nor a vulnerability disclosure mechanism, which could enhance transparency and readiness. Overall, the security measures are adequate for the business type but could be strengthened to align with best practices and compliance standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement additional security headers including X-Frame-Options, X-XSS-Protection, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program, including a security.txt file, to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Monitor and update third-party scripts regularly to mitigate risks from external dependencies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using React and modern JavaScript, with CSS and SVG graphics for a responsive and visually appealing design. It uses Google Fonts for typography and integrates Smartsupp Chat for customer interaction. Analytics are handled via Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager, indicating a data-driven approach to user engagement. The site loads moderately fast and is optimized for mobile devices. SEO practices are good with proper meta tags and structured navigation. However, no CMS or hosting provider information is explicitly detected. The technical implementation supports a professional and scalable digital presence, though some improvements in accessibility and security headers are recommended.
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.
