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

Signals AZ is a regional news and events media platform serving Prescott Valley and Northern Arizona, operated by Talking Glass Media LLC. The website offers local news articles, event listings, advertising opportunities, and multimedia content including podcasts and videos. It targets local residents and visitors seeking community information and entertainment. The site is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including Bootstrap, Google Maps API, and various plugins for enhanced functionality. The technical infrastructure is supported by AWS Cloudfront CDN and integrates analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Matomo, Facebook Pixel, and Google Tag Manager. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data, but could be improved by adding explicit security headers and a cookie consent mechanism. Privacy compliance is partial, with a comprehensive privacy policy present but lacking cookie consent and GDPR indicators. WHOIS data confirms legitimate domain registration consistent with the business identity. Overall, the website is professional, content-rich, and technically sound, with room for security and privacy enhancements.

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

4 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  3. 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

Signals AZ operates as a small media company focused on local news and events, monetizing through advertising and sponsored content. Its partnership with Talking Glass Media LLC and Fain Signature Group provides additional credibility and resources. The business model leverages digital content, newsletters, and multimedia to engage a regional audience. The presence of multiple social media channels and podcast integration indicates a diversified content strategy. The company appears well-positioned in its niche market with consistent branding and a steady flow of relevant content. Growth opportunities may include expanding digital advertising, enhancing user engagement, and improving compliance to attract broader audiences and advertisers.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and no visible exposure of credentials or sensitive information. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against certain web attacks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, which limits transparency and preparedness. The lack of a cookie consent mechanism also poses compliance risks. Overall, while no critical vulnerabilities are evident, the site would benefit from implementing additional security best practices and formalizing incident response and disclosure policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate cross-site scripting and related attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner to comply with privacy regulations and improve user transparency.
  3. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Include additional security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins for vulnerabilities and update accordingly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a well-established CMS (WordPress) with a variety of plugins to provide rich content and interactive features. The tech stack includes modern JavaScript libraries, Bootstrap for responsive design, and integration with external APIs like Google Maps and Amazon Polly. Hosting via AWS Cloudfront CDN supports performance and scalability. The site is mobile optimized with good SEO practices including meta tags and structured data. Some technical debt is noted in the form of missing security headers and lack of cookie consent implementation. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed and accessibility. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively but could be enhanced with focused security and privacy improvements.
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.
