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

SPORTO.si is a professionally maintained website representing the SPORTO conference, a leading sports marketing and sponsorship event in Slovenia and the wider region. The site provides comprehensive information about the event, including speakers, program, awards, partners, and ticketing. The business model revolves around event organization, sponsorship, and industry networking. The website uses a modern WordPress infrastructure with Elementor and several plugins to deliver a rich user experience. While the site is well-designed and content-rich, it lacks explicit privacy and terms of service pages, which are important for compliance and user trust. The security posture is good with HTTPS enabled and no visible vulnerabilities, but security headers are missing. Tracking and marketing scripts from Google, Facebook, and LinkedIn are used, indicating moderate user tracking. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professional but could improve privacy compliance and security best practices.

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

9 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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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.

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 · found on this site
  • 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

SPORTO positions itself as a key event in the sports marketing sector, attracting over 7500 participants and 250+ speakers from 30+ countries. The event has a strong partnership ecosystem including sponsors like Coca-Cola and regional partners. The business leverages conferences, awards, and publications to generate revenue and industry influence. The target audience includes sports organizations, marketing agencies, sponsors, and professionals in the sports business sector. The company behind the domain, CARPEDIEM d.o.o., is a Slovenian entity consistent with the website's regional focus. The event's longevity since 2004 and domain age since 2007 indicate stable market presence.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communication. It uses standard security practices such as asynchronous loading of tracking scripts to minimize performance impact. However, no security headers like Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. No sensitive data or credentials are exposed in the HTML content. The site lacks a published security policy or incident response contact, which are recommended for transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is moderate to good but can be improved with additional headers and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Provide clear contact information for security incidents and data protection inquiries.
  4. Review and audit third-party scripts to ensure no vulnerabilities or excessive tracking.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress using Elementor page builder and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern and SEO-friendly setup. It uses Bootstrap 4.6.1 for responsive design and jQuery for scripting. The site integrates multiple third-party services including Google Analytics, Google Ads, Facebook Pixel, and LinkedIn Insight for marketing and analytics. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading and lazy loading of images. The site is mobile optimized and uses structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine understanding. There is no indication of hosting provider from the HTML content. The technical stack is robust but could benefit from improved security headers and privacy disclosures.
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.
