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

Eesti Spordiregister, operated by Spordikoolituse ja -Teabe SA under the Estonian Ministry of Culture, serves as the official national registry and information portal for sports organizations, schools, facilities, and coaches in Estonia. It provides comprehensive data services including statistics, data submission portals, and public access to sports-related information, targeting sports entities and the general public. The platform is well-positioned as a trusted governmental resource in the Estonian sports sector. Technically, the website employs a mature technology stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, Highcharts, Leaflet, and other modern JavaScript libraries, ensuring a responsive and accessible user experience. The site is mobile-optimized and implements basic SEO and accessibility features. The infrastructure appears custom-built without reliance on popular CMS platforms, indicating tailored development for specific governmental needs. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses secure form inputs, but lacks some advanced security headers and does not publicly disclose a security policy or incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or malware were detected, and cookie consent mechanisms are in place, supporting GDPR compliance. The WHOIS data aligns well with the website's governmental nature, reinforcing legitimacy. Overall, the website demonstrates a solid security posture and technical maturity suitable for its governmental role, with room for improvement in security header implementation and transparency around security policies. The business credibility is high given its official status and clear contact information.

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. 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

    • 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

  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 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 Estonian Sports Register operates as a governmental/non-profit entity providing authoritative sports data and registry services. Its market position is unique as the official national sports registry, serving sports organizations, coaches, schools, and government stakeholders. The business model focuses on data collection, validation, and dissemination rather than commercial revenue generation. Partnerships with government bodies and sports institutions strengthen its ecosystem. Growth indicators include active data submission portals and integration with coach certification systems. The platform's strategic value lies in consolidating sports data for policy, funding, and public information purposes.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, secure form handling, and cookie consent compliance. However, it lacks explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could mitigate certain attack vectors. No public security policy or incident response contacts were found, limiting transparency. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file suggests an opportunity to enhance security culture and responsiveness. Overall, the site is secure for general use but could benefit from adopting additional best practices to strengthen defenses and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and user trust.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Upgrade jQuery and other third-party libraries to their latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance SEO and accessibility features to improve discoverability and usability for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom CMS with a robust technology stack including jQuery 1.11.3, Bootstrap, Highcharts, Leaflet, and other libraries supporting interactive maps, charts, and responsive design. While the stack is mature, the jQuery version is outdated and may pose security risks. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. The site is mobile-friendly and includes accessibility features such as text size adjustment and contrast options. SEO is basic with meta tags present but could be improved with structured data and Open Graph tags. Hosting details are not explicit, but the site uses HTTPS with a good SSL configuration.
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.
