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

Sportland Magazine is a leading Estonian lifestyle and sports online magazine operated by Sportland Eesti AS, a medium-sized retail and media company established in 2010. The website offers a rich variety of sports news, lifestyle articles, event coverage, and product recommendations targeted primarily at Estonian sports enthusiasts and lifestyle readers. The company maintains a consistent brand presence with active social media channels and a well-structured website optimized for SEO and mobile devices. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern JavaScript libraries and tracking tools such as Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel, hosted behind Cloudflare DNS services. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data, though improvements like implementing a Content-Security-Policy header and publishing a security.txt file are recommended. Privacy compliance is adequate with a comprehensive privacy policy in Estonian, but lacks a cookie consent mechanism and explicit GDPR compliance indicators. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-positioned in its market segment.

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. 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';…

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

Sportland Eesti AS operates in the retail and media sectors, focusing on sports and lifestyle content distribution and brand promotion. The business model leverages content marketing to support retail sales of sports products and events. The company enjoys a strong market position in Estonia as the publisher of the largest circulation lifestyle and sports magazine. Its target audience includes active sports participants and lifestyle consumers in Estonia. The website's content quality and branding consistency support customer engagement and trust. The company benefits from partnerships with major brands and maintains a digital ecosystem with integrated social media and advertising platforms. Growth indicators include regular content updates and event sponsorships. No direct subsidiaries or parent company information was found, indicating an independent operation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and no visible exposure of sensitive information. Use of asynchronous loading for tracking scripts reduces page load impact. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and lack of a published vulnerability disclosure or incident response policy represent gaps in security best practices. No signs of malware, phishing, or other malicious activity were detected. The site does not implement a cookie consent mechanism, which may be a compliance risk under GDPR. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by adopting additional headers and formal security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate XSS and related attacks.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to provide a clear vulnerability disclosure channel.
  3. Add a cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR and ePrivacy Directive requirements.
  4. Include explicit security and incident response policies accessible from the website footer.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including jQuery and various plugins such as Photo Gallery. It uses Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing. Hosting is supported by Cloudflare DNS services, enhancing availability and security. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices including structured data (JSON-LD) and Open Graph tags. Accessibility features are basic but present. The site uses standard fonts from Google Fonts and includes lazy loading for emojis. Technical debt appears low, but opportunities exist to improve security headers and cookie management. Overall, the infrastructure supports a professional and scalable online presence.
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.
