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

Shen Yun Symphony Orchestra is a cultural performing arts organization based in New York, specializing in blending traditional Chinese music with Western symphony orchestra elements. The website promotes upcoming performances and highlights the orchestra's unique artistic mission inspired by 5,000 years of Chinese civilization. The company positions itself as a niche cultural entity with a focus on live event ticket sales and cultural preservation. Technically, the website uses modern web technologies including React, Google Fonts, and multiple third-party analytics and advertising scripts. The site is mobile-optimized and well-structured but lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, which is a compliance concern. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled and domain protections in place, but DNSSEC is not enabled and security headers are missing. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but could improve privacy compliance and security best practices.

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

9 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 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. 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

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 organization operates in the media and performing arts sector, targeting classical music and cultural event audiences. Its competitive advantage lies in its unique fusion of Eastern and Western musical traditions and original compositions. Revenue is primarily generated through ticket sales for live performances. The company maintains a consistent brand image and leverages partnerships with established venues such as Lincoln Center. The website reflects a medium-sized organization with a recent founding date, aligned with the domain registration. The partnership with shenyun.org indicates a broader organizational ecosystem. Marketing efforts include extensive use of digital advertising and tracking technologies.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and domain status flags provide protection against unauthorized changes. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers reduces the overall security posture. No incident response or security policies are published, and no dedicated security contact channels are provided. The extensive use of third-party tracking scripts increases the attack surface and privacy risks. There are no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data, but privacy compliance is weak due to missing policies and consent mechanisms. The organization should prioritize implementing security headers, enabling DNSSEC, and publishing clear privacy and security policies to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to improve DNS security.
  3. Add standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security incident response contacts.
  5. Audit and minimize third-party tracking scripts to reduce privacy risks and improve user trust.

Key observations

  1. Website is professionally designed with a clear cultural and artistic focus.
  2. No privacy or cookie policies are present, which is a compliance gap.
  3. Extensive use of third-party tracking and advertising scripts.
  4. No contact emails or phone numbers explicitly provided on the main page.
  5. No security or incident response policies published.
  6. Domain registration is recent but consistent with the business.
  7. No DNSSEC enabled, which is a minor security weakness.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React-based frontend with chunked JavaScript and CSS assets, indicating a modular and maintainable codebase. It uses Google Fonts for typography and integrates multiple analytics and advertising platforms including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Twitter Analytics, and Bing Ads. The site is hosted with GoDaddy.com, LLC as per WHOIS data. Performance is moderate with video content and multiple external scripts, which may impact load times. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO meta tags are well implemented. Accessibility features are basic but present. There is no evidence of a CMS, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts and lack of DNSSEC.
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.
