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

3 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 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Cloudflare

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

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

TryBooking UK Ltd targets event organisers across multiple sectors including education, charity, business, music, theatre, and sports clubs. Its business model is based on charging low ticketing fees only on paid events, with free events incurring no fees, making it attractive for cost-conscious organisers. The company leverages customer testimonials and strong social media presence to build trust and credibility. The platform integrates with popular payment providers and offers API access for developers, indicating a scalable and extensible service. Founded in 2014, the company has established a solid market position in the UK event ticketing space. The lack of visible contact emails or phone numbers on the main site suggests a preference for digital self-service and support channels. Partnerships or subsidiaries are not explicitly identified in the data.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and employs cookie consent banners aligned with GDPR requirements, indicating good privacy compliance. It uses reputable third-party analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Google Tag Manager, and Zoho SalesIQ. However, the site lacks visible security headers like Content-Security-Policy and does not publish a dedicated security policy or incident response contact, which are best practices for transparency and trust. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The absence of WHOIS data is a concern for domain registration transparency but does not directly impact website security. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved with enhanced header policies and published security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  2. Implement and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Verify and publish domain registration details to improve transparency and trustworthiness.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
  5. Enhance contact options by providing verified company emails or phone numbers for support and security inquiries.

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including Tailwind CSS for styling, Font Awesome for icons, and JavaScript libraries for interactivity and analytics. It integrates multiple third-party services such as Zoho SalesIQ for customer engagement, Microsoft Clarity for user behavior analytics, and Google Tag Manager for tag management. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and lazy loading for images and videos, contributing to good performance. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph data, and JSON-LD structured data for organization, website, and software application schema. No CMS or hosting provider details were explicitly identified. The site uses asynchronous and deferred script loading to improve page load times. Overall, the technical implementation is robust and aligned with modern web development 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.
