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

Sofa Superstars is a specialized technology company focused on developing fantasy sports gaming platforms and fan engagement solutions for sports brands, clubs, and marketers. Founded in 2014, the company offers a variety of fantasy sports games including football, cycling, Formula 1, and social media integrated games such as the #CupCoach on Twitter. Their market position is that of a niche leader with innovative offerings that leverage mobile and real-time data technologies to enhance fan interaction. Technically, the website is built using modern web technologies including Bootstrap and jQuery, hosted likely on Amazon AWS infrastructure. The site is mobile optimized and presents a professional design with clear navigation. However, SEO and accessibility features are basic, and performance is moderate. The site uses Google Analytics and Tag Manager for user tracking but lacks visible cookie consent mechanisms. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and has domain transfer protections in place but lacks DNSSEC and important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and HSTS. No privacy or cookie policies are present, which impacts compliance posture. The WHOIS data is consistent and supports the legitimacy of the domain and business. Overall, the website is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced security practices and privacy compliance improvements to strengthen trust and regulatory adherence.

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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

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

Sofa Superstars operates in the technology sector, specifically in fantasy sports gaming and fan engagement. Their business model targets both B2B clients such as sports clubs and brands, and B2C end-users who are sports fans. The company leverages partnerships with notable organizations like KNVB and Twitter to enhance product credibility and reach. Revenue streams likely include licensing their fantasy sports platforms and custom development for clients. The company shows growth potential through innovative social media integration and multi-sport offerings. The partnership ecosystem includes sports federations and media outlets, supporting a strong market presence in the fantasy sports niche.

Security posture

The current security posture is moderate. The website uses HTTPS and has domain transfer lock enabled, which are positive indicators. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options exposes the site to potential risks like clickjacking and content injection. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. No incident response or security contact information is provided, limiting readiness for security events. The use of Google Analytics without visible consent mechanisms further impacts privacy compliance. Overall, the security culture appears basic and would benefit from formalized policies and technical enhancements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security.
  3. Add critical security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS to the web server configuration.
  4. Introduce a cookie consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and inform users about tracking.
  5. Provide clear security incident response contact information and consider publishing a security policy or vulnerability disclosure program.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern but basic technology stack including Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for scripting. Hosting is inferred to be on Amazon AWS based on DNS servers. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected, but SEO and accessibility features are minimal. The site lacks a CMS or advanced frameworks, indicating a custom or static site approach. There is opportunity to modernize by adopting progressive web app features, improving accessibility compliance, and enhancing SEO metadata. The absence of security headers and DNSSEC represents technical debt that should be addressed to reduce risk.
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.
