Medium risk. 8 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view, Security headers and 1 other check.

Security score

61/100

Risk levelMedium

0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

The website racinghorses.eu is currently inaccessible due to a security challenge page implementing a proof-of-work CAPTCHA mechanism. This indicates the presence of a Web Application Firewall or similar security control blocking direct access to the site's content. The WHOIS data shows the domain is registered to Kauno technologijos universitetas, an academic institution, which does not align with the domain name or expected business content. No business descriptions, contact information, or privacy policies are available on the page, limiting the ability to assess the business or compliance posture. Technically, the site uses JavaScript with cryptographic functions and is hosted behind AWS Cloudfront CDN. However, no security headers or HTTPS details are visible in the provided data. Overall, the site appears to be either under protection or misconfigured, resulting in minimal accessible content and low trustworthiness.

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

8 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

  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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

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.

Dark web exposure

Add-on

Leaked records that mention racinghorses.eu, from OffSeq Breach.

No leaked records found

Breach holds no records for racinghorses.eu right now. New leaks arrive continuously, so monitoring on Breach alerts you if that changes.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Due to the lack of accessible content and business information, it is not possible to determine the market positioning, business model, or target audience of the website. The registrant being an academic institution suggests the domain may be used for research or educational purposes rather than commercial activities. No partnerships, subsidiaries, or certifications are evident. The absence of contact details and policies further reduces business credibility.

Security posture

The security posture is partially positive due to the presence of a proof-of-work CAPTCHA challenge, which can mitigate automated attacks. However, the lack of visible HTTPS enforcement, security headers, and privacy compliance measures are significant gaps. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is available. The site’s security score is low, primarily due to blocked content and missing standard security practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and expose standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options to enhance security posture.
  2. Ensure HTTPS is properly configured and enforced site-wide with valid certificates.
  3. Publish clear privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and other regulations.
  4. Provide accessible contact information and business details to improve trust and credibility.
  5. Review and optimize the CAPTCHA challenge to balance security with user accessibility and experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses advanced JavaScript cryptographic functions and Web Workers to implement a proof-of-work CAPTCHA challenge, indicating a modern approach to bot mitigation. Hosting is via AWS Cloudfront CDN, which suggests scalable infrastructure. However, the lack of visible meta tags, SEO optimization, and accessibility features indicates technical immaturity. The site’s performance is moderate but limited by the challenge page. No CMS or frameworks are detected. The technical debt appears moderate due to missing standard web practices and incomplete content delivery.
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.
