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

3 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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  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

SportPesa operates in the competitive online gambling sector, targeting sports fans worldwide with a broad portfolio of betting and gaming products. Its licensing in the Isle of Man and partnerships with data providers like Sportradar and Betgenius enhance its credibility and service quality. The business model relies on user engagement through promotions, jackpots, and a mobile-first approach. The presence of multiple payment methods and a global footprint indicate a scalable and growth-oriented operation. Strategic partnerships and a strong brand presence on social media further support its market position.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. The use of third-party analytics and push notification services is managed without apparent vulnerabilities. However, the absence of a public security policy and incident response contact limits transparency. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure or data protection officer information, which could be improved to enhance trust and compliance. Overall, the security maturity is solid but could benefit from enhanced documentation and user-facing security assurances.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency.
  2. Implement and disclose a vulnerability disclosure program to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for security vulnerabilities.
  5. Expand contact information to include phone support and physical office details for better user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The site uses a modern JavaScript framework (AngularJS) combined with various third-party analytics and push notification tools, indicating a mature technical infrastructure. Performance is moderate with responsive design and SEO best practices implemented. The absence of a known CMS suggests a custom-built platform, which may require ongoing maintenance to avoid technical debt. Hosting details are not explicit, but the use of HTTPS and security headers indicates a professionally managed environment. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and streamline third-party integrations for enhanced performance and security.
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.
