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

Tampa Bay Sun Football Club is a professional women's soccer team based in Tampa Bay, recognized as the first professional women's football club in the region and the 2025 USL Super League Champions. The website serves as the primary digital presence for the club, targeting soccer fans and the local community with information about the team, events, and league affiliations. The business model focuses on sports entertainment, fan engagement, and community presence within the USL ecosystem. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern integrations including React components, Yoast SEO for search optimization, and multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel. The site is mobile-optimized and uses cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR standards, linking to the USL's comprehensive privacy policy. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, implements standard security headers, and uses a reputable cookie consent provider (Osano). However, there is no visible incident response or security policy page, and no direct contact information for security or business inquiries is provided. The WHOIS data for the domain is unavailable, which raises some concerns about domain registration legitimacy, though the website content and external references suggest a legitimate operation. Overall, the site presents a professional and trustworthy front for the Tampa Bay Sun FC, but improvements in transparency regarding domain registration, contact information, and security policies would enhance trust and compliance.

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

5 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  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

  3. 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.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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 Tampa Bay Sun FC operates within the professional sports sector, specifically women's soccer, positioning itself as a pioneering club in Tampa Bay. Its competitive advantage lies in its early establishment in the USL Super League and championship status. The business model likely includes ticket sales, merchandise, sponsorships, and community engagement. The club benefits from strong partnerships with USL and related leagues, enhancing its market presence. Growth indicators include recent founding (2022) and championship success (2025). The website's integration with league and partner domains reflects a well-connected ecosystem, though direct business contact details are limited.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to strong security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers present. The use of Osano for cookie consent indicates attention to privacy compliance. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms limits the site's security maturity. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The lack of WHOIS data for the domain is a notable gap that should be addressed to ensure domain legitimacy and trustworthiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page with clear contact information.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Verify and publish domain registration details to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Add a terms of service page to clarify user and business obligations.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform enhanced with React for dynamic components. It uses Yoast SEO for metadata and structured data, improving search engine visibility. Analytics and marketing integrations include Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and StackAdapt, indicating a mature digital marketing approach. The site loads moderate resources and is mobile-optimized with responsive design. Security headers and HTTPS are properly configured. However, hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. The site could benefit from performance optimization and enhanced accessibility compliance.
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.
