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

Sportwetten24.com is a German-language online portal specializing in comprehensive reviews, comparisons, and informational content about sports betting providers. The site targets sports betting enthusiasts primarily in Germany and German-speaking countries, offering detailed bonus information, betting tips, and news updates. The business model is affiliate-based, linking users to various betting operators with nofollow affiliate links. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern plugins and SEO tools, delivering a good user experience with mobile optimization and structured data for enhanced search visibility. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled, but lacks explicit security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises some legitimacy concerns, though the site’s content quality and professional presentation mitigate some risk. Overall, the site is a moderately credible resource for sports betting information but would benefit from improved transparency and compliance documentation.

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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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

Sportwetten24.com holds a leading position in the German online sports betting information market, providing users with detailed comparisons and reviews of betting providers, including bonus offers and betting odds. The portal serves a medium-sized audience of sports bettors and affiliates with multiple betting operators. Its revenue streams likely derive from affiliate commissions. The site demonstrates consistent branding and content quality, with a focus on football and other popular sports. The lack of visible company registration or contact details limits full business transparency. The portal’s ecosystem includes partnerships with numerous betting providers, but no direct subsidiaries or parent companies are identified. Growth indicators include frequent content updates and a broad range of betting-related topics.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates Google Tag Manager and analytics scripts, indicating a baseline security posture. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No sensitive data or credentials are exposed in the HTML content. The absence of explicit privacy and cookie policies, as well as incident response contacts, suggests gaps in compliance and security governance. No known vulnerabilities or malware indicators were detected in the provided content. The site would benefit from implementing comprehensive security headers, formal privacy documentation, and incident response mechanisms to enhance its security maturity and regulatory compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit GDPR compliance and user consent mechanisms.
  3. Provide clear and accessible contact information including security incident response contacts.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and plugins for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct usability testing to improve user experience across devices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress 6.5.5, utilizing common web technologies such as jQuery, Swiper.js for sliders, and FontAwesome for icons. SEO is enhanced via the Rank Math plugin and structured data (JSON-LD) is properly implemented for rich snippets. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are used for tracking user behavior. The site uses WP Rocket for caching and performance optimization. The design is responsive and mobile-friendly with good navigation clarity. No hosting provider details were found. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in accessibility and security headers. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and privacy compliance features.
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.
