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

TIM San Marino S.p.A. operates as a telecommunications provider in the Republic of San Marino, offering a range of services including fiber internet, mobile telephony, fixed telephony, and digital TV. The website targets residential and business customers within San Marino, positioning itself as a leading local telecom operator. The business model focuses on providing bundled telecom services and devices, supported by a professional online presence with clear service offerings and customer support channels. Technically, the website is built on WordPress 6.8.1, utilizing common libraries such as jQuery and Owl Carousel for UI components. SEO is enhanced via the Yoast SEO plugin, and the site includes structured data for improved search engine understanding. However, performance is suboptimal with a slow page load time of over 7 seconds, and accessibility features are basic. From a security perspective, the site lacks a valid SSL certificate and does not support HTTPS, which is a critical vulnerability. No modern TLS protocols or security headers are enabled, exposing users to potential risks. Privacy compliance is well addressed with comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, including consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR requirements. Overall, while the business and content aspects are strong and trustworthy, the security posture is weak and requires urgent remediation to protect user data and maintain trust. Strategic improvements in SSL deployment, security headers, and performance optimization are recommended to elevate the site's security and technical maturity.

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. 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

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  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

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

TIM San Marino holds a strong market position as the primary telecom operator in San Marino, offering a comprehensive portfolio of fixed and mobile services. The company leverages a direct-to-consumer business model with online and physical store presence. Revenue streams include subscription fees for fiber internet, mobile plans, optional services, and device sales. The target customer segments include residential users, youth (e.g., +MOBILE Under24), and business clients. The company maintains active communication channels and social media engagement, indicating a focus on customer experience and brand loyalty. Growth indicators include recent network modernization plans and app development. The partnership ecosystem includes Telecom Italia branding and infrastructure collaboration. The website reflects a mature digital presence but could benefit from enhanced technical and security investments.

Security posture

The current security maturity level of the website is low due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of HTTPS support, which is a fundamental security requirement. The server does not support any TLS protocols, and no security headers such as HSTS are implemented. Vulnerabilities related to insecure transport and missing best practices expose the site and its users to risks including data interception and man-in-the-middle attacks. Compliance with GDPR is supported by privacy and cookie policies, but incident response readiness and security policy disclosures are not evident. The site does not provide dedicated security contact channels. Overall, the security culture appears limited, and immediate actions are necessary to address critical gaps and align with industry standards.

Recommendations

  1. Install and maintain a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3) and disable deprecated protocols.
  3. Implement security headers such as HSTS, Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Establish and publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information.
  5. Optimize website performance to reduce load times and improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform version 6.8.1, using jQuery 3.4.1 and jQuery UI for frontend interactions, and Owl Carousel for image sliders. SEO is enhanced with the Yoast SEO plugin, including JSON-LD structured data and Open Graph tags for social sharing. The site loads 69 resources with a total page size of 1286 KB but suffers from a slow load time of 7.7 seconds, indicating potential optimization needs. Accessibility features are basic, with some ARIA roles and semantic HTML present. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified. The lack of SSL and security headers represents a significant technical risk. The site includes multiple forms for user login, registration, and coverage verification, which require secure transport to protect user data.
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.
