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. 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  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

Pulselive operates in the sports technology sector, targeting sports organizations and fans globally. Its business model focuses on B2B digital solutions, offering platforms and toolkits to enhance fan engagement and content management. The company benefits from strong partnerships with high-profile sports entities, enhancing its market credibility and reach. The presence of consultative services indicates a comprehensive approach to client engagement. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a controlled communication channel via contact forms, typical for enterprise clients. The company is a subsidiary of Sony, indicating strong corporate backing.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates OneTrust for cookie consent, reflecting compliance with privacy regulations such as GDPR. Security headers are implied but not explicitly confirmed in the HTML content. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The use of HubSpot forms suggests secure data collection practices. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. The WHOIS data absence is a potential red flag but may be due to technical or privacy reasons.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear and accessible privacy policy and terms of service to enhance transparency and compliance.
  2. Implement and publicly disclose a security policy and incident response contact information.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Verify and correct WHOIS registration data to ensure domain legitimacy and trust.
  5. Enhance security headers explicitly and perform regular security audits to maintain best practices.

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including JavaScript, Google Tag Manager, and OneTrust for cookie management. It leverages HubSpot for contact forms, indicating integration with marketing automation tools. The site is optimized for mobile and desktop with responsive design and lazy loading of images.

Overall, the technical implementation supports a high-quality user experience with good SEO and accessibility features.
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.
