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

TechHosted is a well-established annual IT conference organized by LANACO, a prominent technology company in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The conference serves as a key platform for IT professionals, business leaders, and students to connect, share knowledge, and explore innovative technologies. With a decade-long history, TechHosted has positioned itself as a leading event in the regional IT industry, supported by reputable partners and media outlets. The website reflects a professional and modern digital presence with strong branding and clear communication of its services and event details. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including jQuery, HTML5 video, and SVG graphics, alongside robust analytics and tracking tools such as Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, and Facebook Pixel. The site is optimized for performance, mobile responsiveness, and SEO, providing a smooth user experience. Security practices include HTTPS enforcement and secure form handling, although formal security policies and incident response contacts are not publicly documented. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates good baseline protections with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Privacy compliance is addressed through a cookie consent banner and a privacy policy page, indicating awareness of GDPR requirements. However, the absence of a published security policy or vulnerability disclosure mechanism suggests room for improvement in transparency and incident readiness. Overall, TechHosted presents a trustworthy and credible online presence aligned with its business objectives. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security documentation, publishing incident response contacts, and implementing additional security headers to further strengthen the security posture and user trust.

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

  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

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

Business profile

TechHosted operates in the technology sector as a major IT conference platform in Bosnia and Herzegovina, targeting IT professionals, business leaders, and students. Its business model revolves around event organization, knowledge sharing, and networking, supported by partnerships with leading IT vendors. The company leverages its strong regional presence and LANACO's reputation to maintain competitive advantage. Revenue streams likely include sponsorships, partner collaborations, and attendee registrations. The partnership ecosystem is robust, featuring global IT brands and local media partners, enhancing market reach and credibility. Growth indicators include consistent event organization over a decade and expanding partner networks. The website content and structure reflect a mature digital strategy supporting business goals.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and no evident exposure of sensitive information. Use of secure forms with validation and cookie consent mechanisms align with privacy best practices. Integration of reputable analytics and tracking tools is managed with user consent, indicating compliance awareness. However, the lack of a publicly available security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents gaps in transparency and preparedness. Security headers are not explicitly detected, suggesting potential improvements. Overall, the site is secure for typical user interactions but would benefit from enhanced documentation and proactive security communication to stakeholders.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a formal security policy on the website to inform users about security practices.
  2. Add incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and tracking tools for security risks.

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.
