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

Unisono is a centralized licensing platform operated by Sabam in collaboration with PlayRight and SIMIM, providing streamlined copyright licensing services for music, theatre, audiovisual works, and other creative domains in Belgium. The platform targets businesses and event organizers requiring legal authorization to use copyrighted works, offering online licence applications and comprehensive information. The website reflects a mature digital presence with modern technologies such as Drupal 8, Bootstrap, and integrated analytics tools like Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity. Privacy and cookie policies are clearly presented with consent mechanisms, supporting GDPR compliance. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced, though some security headers could be improved. WHOIS data is restricted, which is typical for privacy but limits domain ownership transparency. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with its business objectives.

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

4 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 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 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

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 website positions Unisono as a key player in the Belgian copyright licensing market, leveraging partnerships with Sabam and related organizations. Its business model centers on licensing fees and royalty collection for public use of creative works. The platform's online services and clear communication channels indicate a customer-focused approach. The presence of detailed FAQs, news updates, and multilingual support enhances user engagement. The company benefits from a strong brand legacy (Sabam's 100th anniversary in 2022) and a large member base. The integration with Sabam's e-services domain for licence applications suggests a robust operational ecosystem. No suspicious or fraudulent indicators were found, supporting high business credibility.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and uses modern security practices such as asynchronous loading of tracking scripts and cookie consent banners. However, explicit security headers like X-Frame-Options and Content-Security-Policy were not detected in the HTML source, which could be improved to mitigate clickjacking and content injection risks. The WHOIS data is not publicly available, which is common but reduces transparency. No signs of malware, phishing, or exposed sensitive data were found. The use of reputable third-party analytics and marketing tools is balanced with privacy compliance efforts. Overall, the security posture is good but could benefit from enhanced HTTP header configurations and regular security audits.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers including X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Content-Security-Policy.
  2. Enhance WHOIS transparency if possible to improve domain trustworthiness.
  3. Conduct regular third-party script audits to prevent supply chain vulnerabilities.
  4. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to align with evolving GDPR and ePrivacy regulations.
  5. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve security communication.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 8 CMS with Bootstrap 3.4.1 for responsive design and Font Awesome for icons. It uses Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity for analytics and user behavior tracking, alongside a cookie consent solution from Cookie Script. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA roles. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous script loading to improve page speed. The site structure is clear with well-organized navigation menus and multilingual support. Some legacy Bootstrap version usage suggests potential modernization opportunities. No critical technical debt or vulnerabilities were identified from the HTML content.
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.
