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

Thrustmaster is a well-established company specializing in the design and manufacture of gaming hardware and accessories for PC and consoles, serving gamers ranging from amateurs to experts. The company has a strong market presence with a professional website that reflects its brand and product offerings effectively. The technical infrastructure is based on WordPress with modern JavaScript libraries and analytics tools, indicating a mature digital presence. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enabled and some security best practices observed, though there is room for improvement in implementing comprehensive security headers. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. However, the lack of WHOIS domain registration data raises some concerns about domain legitimacy, which should be further investigated to ensure trustworthiness. Overall, the website is professional, secure, and compliant, supporting the company's credibility in the gaming hardware market.

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

2 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 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. 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 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

Thrustmaster operates in the technology sector, focusing on gaming peripherals such as wheels, joysticks, and gamepads. The business model centers on manufacturing and retail, targeting a broad gamer demographic. The company benefits from a consistent brand image and trust signals such as official social media presence and structured data markup. The website supports marketing and analytics efforts through tools like Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity, enabling data-driven decision-making. Despite the missing WHOIS data, the company's digital footprint and content quality suggest a stable market position with potential for growth and partnership expansion.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS enforced and no visible exposure of sensitive data. Use of security plugins to prevent user enumeration is a positive indicator. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests opportunities to harden defenses against common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or malware indicators were detected in the analyzed content. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from enhanced header configurations and published security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve protection against web attacks.
  2. Publish clear security and incident response policies on the website to increase transparency and trust.
  3. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS domain registration data to strengthen domain legitimacy and trustworthiness.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and analytics tools to ensure they do not introduce vulnerabilities or privacy risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including jQuery and Select2 for UI enhancements. SEO is supported by the Yoast SEO plugin, and analytics are managed via Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity. The site shows good mobile optimization and moderate performance. Some technical debt is evident in the lack of full security headers and limited accessibility features. Hosting provider details are not explicit, but the presence of CDN and external libraries suggests a distributed infrastructure. Opportunities exist to improve performance and security through updated configurations and enhanced compliance with web standards.
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.
