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

The website ita.whistleblowernetwork.net serves as a secure and anonymous whistleblower platform named REVEAL, focused on supporting investigations into anti-doping rule violations and criminal behavior in sports. It is branded and operated under EQS Group GmbH, a recognized compliance service provider. The platform targets individuals who wish to report sensitive information confidentially to help maintain integrity in sports. Technically, the site is built using Angular framework with Material Design components, delivering a modern and responsive user experience. However, SEO and accessibility features are basic, and no advanced analytics or tracking scripts are detected. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS implied but no explicit security headers visible in the HTML content. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism or terms of service found. Contact information and incident response details are not provided on the main page, which could be improved for transparency and trust. Overall, the domain is a subdomain with no direct WHOIS registration data, which is typical and not suspicious given the parent domain and branding alignment. The website is safe, professional, and serves a niche compliance function with moderate 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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • Critical

      DNS Resolution Failed

      Unable to resolve domain A records

      What to do: Verify domain is properly configured and not expired

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  3. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

  4. 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

EQS Group GmbH operates this whistleblower platform targeting the sports integrity sector, specifically anti-doping investigations. The business model revolves around providing a secure, anonymous channel for whistleblowers to report violations, supporting regulatory and investigative bodies. The platform's niche focus and association with EQS Group position it well within compliance and governance markets. The lack of direct contact details and limited public business information suggests a controlled disclosure approach, typical for sensitive whistleblowing services. The website's moderate size and medium complexity reflect a specialized service rather than a broad commercial offering. No evident partnerships or subsidiaries are linked directly from the site. The platform's growth potential lies in expanding awareness and trust among sports stakeholders and whistleblowers.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS usage implied but no explicit security headers detected in the HTML content. The presence of a noindex, nofollow meta tag indicates an intent to limit search engine indexing, enhancing confidentiality. No forms with visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found. However, the absence of cookie consent mechanisms and security headers like Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, or HSTS reduces the overall security maturity. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, limiting transparency. No analytics or tracking scripts reduce privacy risks but also limit monitoring capabilities. The platform would benefit from implementing standard security headers, publishing incident response contacts, and enhancing privacy compliance to meet GDPR and other regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Add a cookie policy and consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations.
  3. Publish clear contact information and incident response procedures to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Enhance SEO and accessibility features to improve discoverability and user experience.
  5. Regularly audit and update the technical stack and security posture to address emerging threats and compliance requirements.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Angular 19.2.14 with Material Design components, indicating a modern front-end framework usage. The site loads multiple JavaScript chunks and uses CSS for styling with responsive design considerations. Hosting appears to be managed by EQS Group, inferred from asset URLs. Performance is moderate with no explicit indicators of slow loading but no advanced optimization detected. Accessibility features are basic, with some ARIA labels and skip links present. SEO is limited due to the noindex, nofollow meta tag and minimal meta descriptions. No CMS is detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. No third-party analytics or marketing tools are embedded, reducing external dependencies and privacy concerns. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced SEO, accessibility, and security configurations.
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.
