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. 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 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 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. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048
  4. DNS health

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

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain:

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory

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

Business profile

Sky Accessibility operates as a specialized service within the broader Sky Group, targeting customers with accessibility needs. Its market positioning leverages Sky's established brand and infrastructure, focusing on inclusivity and compliance with accessibility standards. The business model centers on enhancing customer experience and regulatory compliance rather than direct revenue generation. Partnerships with organizations like RNIB and Dementia Friends strengthen its credibility and service quality. The platform supports Sky's broader corporate social responsibility and customer retention strategies, indicating a mature and strategic approach to accessibility. The website's integration with Sky's main domains and use of enterprise-grade CMS and analytics tools reflect a high level of digital maturity. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers suggests a controlled communication channel through official Sky help pages, maintaining brand consistency and security. Growth indicators include ongoing content updates and collaborations, positioning Sky Accessibility as a key component of Sky's customer service ecosystem.

Security posture

The security posture of Sky Accessibility is solid, with HTTPS enforced and modern security practices implied through the use of consent management and analytics platforms. No direct security headers were visible in the provided data, but the use of Adobe Launch and Sourcepoint indicates attention to privacy and data protection. The absence of exposed sensitive data and the use of asynchronous script loading reduce attack surface risks. However, the lack of a visible security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and may affect user trust in security matters. No vulnerabilities or suspicious scripts were detected. The site does not appear to be behind a WAF challenge or security block, indicating stable and accessible hosting. Recommendations include adding explicit security headers, publishing a security policy, and providing incident response contact information to enhance security maturity and compliance with best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and user guidance.
  2. Implement and visibly advertise a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Ensure all recommended security headers (X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy) are present and configured.
  4. Provide clear incident response contact channels to improve transparency and user trust.
  5. Continue monitoring third-party scripts and consent mechanisms to maintain GDPR compliance and security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack featuring React and Next.js frameworks, supported by Contentstack CMS for content management. It uses Adobe Launch for tag management and analytics, and Sourcepoint for GDPR-compliant consent management. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and accessibility features, consistent with its mission. Performance is moderate, likely due to rich media content and multiple external resources. The technical implementation reflects a mature digital infrastructure suitable for an enterprise media company. Opportunities exist to optimize loading times and enhance security header configurations to reduce technical risks.
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.
