Risk levelMedium

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

The Racing System website offers a niche software solution for race timing and results production, targeting race organizers and volunteers. The business appears small and focused on providing an easy-to-use, reliable timing system with error checking and data export features. The website content is static, dated, and lacks modern web technologies or interactive features. The technical infrastructure is minimal, with no evidence of HTTPS or security headers, indicating a basic and outdated setup. Security posture is weak due to the absence of encryption, privacy policies, and contact information. The WHOIS data is missing or indicates the domain is unregistered, which raises concerns about the legitimacy and trustworthiness of the domain despite the accessible content. Overall, the site is functional but outdated and lacks critical security and compliance features.

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. 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 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

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 business operates in a niche market providing race timing software, likely relying on direct downloads and volunteer usage. The lack of modern marketing, analytics, or contact channels suggests a low-scale operation. The absence of WHOIS registration data is unusual and may indicate domain registration issues or outdated WHOIS records. The business model appears to be software sales or distribution without evident e-commerce or subscription mechanisms. The target audience is specialized, and the market position is modest with no visible partnerships or certifications. Growth and modernization opportunities exist but are unexploited.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a low security maturity level with no HTTPS, no security headers, and no privacy or cookie policies. There is no evidence of incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. The absence of contact information and security policies further weakens the security posture. The outdated nature of the site and lack of modern frameworks increase risk exposure. Immediate improvements are needed to secure data transmission and comply with privacy regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate to secure user connections.
  2. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and other regulations.
  3. Publish clear contact information including support and security incident contacts.
  4. Update website technology stack to modern standards including responsive design and accessibility.
  5. Verify and update domain registration information to ensure legitimacy and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built with basic static HTML without any modern frameworks or CMS. There are no scripts, analytics, or tracking technologies detected. The site lacks mobile optimization and accessibility features. Performance is likely slow due to dated design and lack of optimization. The absence of HTTPS and security headers indicates technical debt and potential risks. The site would benefit from modernization including responsive design, SEO improvements, and security 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.
