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

Sparta IT Solutions operates the website sparta-it.it, positioning itself as a reliable supplier of enterprise IT hardware, including network equipment, servers, and branded hardware such as Supermicro, Cisco, HP, Lenovo, and others. The company targets business customers internationally, with a presence in 41 countries and a reseller network of over 400 partners. Founded in 2020, the company maintains a medium-sized business profile with a focus on B2B hardware distribution and logistics services. The website is multilingual, supporting multiple European languages, enhancing its accessibility to a broad audience. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using the Divi theme and WPML for multilingual support, with good SEO practices implemented via Yoast SEO. Performance and mobile optimization are adequate, though accessibility features are basic. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but lacking advanced security headers and DNSSEC. Privacy compliance is weak due to the absence of privacy and cookie policies or consent mechanisms. Contact information is clearly presented but no contact forms or social media links are evident. Overall, the site demonstrates a professional business presence with room for improvement in security and privacy compliance.

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

11 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

  2. 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

  3. 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';…

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

The company operates in the technology sector specializing in IT hardware supply and distribution. Its business model is B2B, serving enterprises and resellers globally. The presence of multiple localized domains indicates a strategic approach to international markets. The company leverages partnerships with major hardware brands and offers logistics services, positioning itself as a comprehensive hardware supplier. The website content and structured data reinforce the company's market position and credibility. The lack of detailed business registration numbers or VAT information on the site limits deeper verification but the domain registration data aligns with the business claims. The company shows growth potential with a broad reseller network and multilingual support, indicating a mature operational footprint.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communications, which is a fundamental security requirement. However, the absence of DNSSEC reduces DNS security, potentially exposing the domain to spoofing attacks. No security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, or X-Content-Type-Options were detected, which are important to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. There is no visible security policy or incident response contact information, nor a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. No forms were detected that collect sensitive user data, reducing immediate risk exposure. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended security headers, DNSSEC, and formal security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement DNSSEC to enhance domain name system security.
  2. Add standard security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to protect against common web attacks.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR-compliant consent mechanisms.
  4. Create a security.txt file and provide clear incident response contact channels to improve vulnerability disclosure and incident handling.
  5. Consider adding contact forms with secure input validation and CAPTCHA to facilitate customer communication while maintaining security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern and widely used CMS platform, WordPress, with the Divi theme providing a flexible and visually appealing design. The use of WPML enables multilingual content delivery, supporting internationalization. SEO is enhanced by Yoast SEO plugin, and Google Fonts are used for typography. The site loads with moderate performance and is mobile optimized with responsive design. Accessibility is basic, with no advanced ARIA roles or accessibility features detected. The site lacks advanced security configurations and some technical SEO enhancements such as structured data for contact or privacy policies. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid for a medium-sized business but could benefit from security and accessibility 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.
