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 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Twitter, Cloudflare, Google APIs, Google Ads

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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 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

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

SlotBeats operates within the media sector, specifically targeting the iGaming and slot gaming niche. Its business model revolves around content publication and industry news dissemination, supported by advertising networks such as Broadstreet Ads and Google Adsense. The site is part of a broader ecosystem under SBC Media, linking to multiple partner domains that cover various aspects of gaming, sports betting, and related industries. This networked approach enhances its competitive advantage and market reach. The absence of direct contact information on the homepage suggests a focus on content delivery rather than direct customer service. Growth indicators include active content updates, multimedia offerings, and integration with social media channels. Strategic partnerships within the SBC Media network provide a robust platform for audience engagement and monetization.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security baseline with HTTPS enabled and domain management practices that include registrar locks to prevent unauthorized transfers or deletions. The use of Cloudflare DNS adds resilience and performance benefits. Cookie consent is actively managed, and analytics tools respect user privacy choices. However, the lack of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options represents areas for enhancement. No exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities were detected in the analyzed content. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security governance. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a media site but could be strengthened to mitigate emerging threats and improve user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to minimize risks from vulnerable libraries.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a well-supported WordPress CMS platform using the Newspaper theme and Rank Math SEO plugin, indicating a modern and SEO-optimized infrastructure. It integrates multiple third-party services including Matomo for privacy-focused analytics, Google Analytics, Hotjar for user behavior insights, and Broadstreet Ads for monetization. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and uses Google Fonts for typography. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and resource optimization. The technical stack is mature but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and accessibility improvements. The presence of structured data (JSON-LD) supports rich search results and social media integration, enhancing digital maturity.
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.
