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

Sim Broadcasts is a specialized media company focused on providing livestream broadcast services for sim racing events. Founded in 2020 and operating primarily in the US, it serves sim racing enthusiasts and event organizers by offering a range of services including event broadcasting, scheduling, corporate services, and community engagement through supporters clubs and voice servers. The company maintains an active presence on major social media platforms and streaming services such as Twitch and YouTube, reinforcing its niche market position. Technically, the website is built using modern web technologies including React, Font Awesome, and Google Fonts, hosted behind Cloudflare which provides DNS and CDN services. The site is mobile optimized with good SEO practices and moderate performance. However, accessibility features are basic and there is room for improvement in security headers and privacy compliance. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and has domain transfer protections in place, but lacks DNSSEC and security headers which are recommended for enhanced protection. No privacy or cookie policies are published, indicating compliance gaps with GDPR and other privacy regulations. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are also absent, which could impact trust and security readiness. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy with a moderate security posture. Strategic improvements in privacy compliance, security headers, and incident response transparency would enhance its risk profile and user trust.

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

Sim Broadcasts operates in the niche media sector focused on sim racing livestreams, targeting a specialized audience of sim racing enthusiasts and event organizers. Its business model revolves around service provision for broadcasting races, supported by sponsorships and community engagement. The company leverages partnerships with platforms like Twitch and YouTube to distribute content and maintains a presence on social media for marketing and community building. The domain registration and business founding dates align, supporting credibility. The company appears small in size but well-positioned within its niche, with growth potential through expanded services and corporate offerings.

Security posture

The current security posture of Sim Broadcasts is moderate. The use of HTTPS and clientTransferProhibited domain status are positive indicators. However, the absence of DNSSEC, security headers, and published security policies or incident response contacts represent gaps. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of privacy and cookie policies suggests non-compliance with GDPR and related regulations, which could pose legal risks. The site would benefit from implementing security best practices including security headers, DNSSEC, and formalized incident response procedures to improve resilience and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with user consent mechanisms to ensure GDPR compliance.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to improve protection against common web attacks.
  4. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React framework with chunked JavaScript files and uses Font Awesome for icons and Google Fonts for typography. It integrates Twitch embed scripts for livestream functionality. Hosting is via Cloudflare, providing CDN and DNS services, which supports performance and security. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, accessibility features are basic and no CMS is detected, indicating a custom or static site approach. Performance is moderate, with video and image assets used for rich media content. Technical debt appears low but security enhancements are recommended.
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.
