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

The United Cup website serves as the official digital presence for the United Cup tennis tournament, a team-based hard court event held in Australia. It is affiliated with the ATP Tour and WTA Tennis organizations, providing tournament information, ticket sales, news, and media content to tennis fans and event attendees. The site is professionally designed with consistent branding and clear navigation, targeting sports enthusiasts and the tennis community. Technically, the site employs modern JavaScript libraries, New Relic monitoring, and Google advertising and analytics tools, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and no visible vulnerabilities, though some security headers could be improved. Privacy and cookie policies are present and linked to a reputable tennis organization, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of WHOIS data for the domain introduces some uncertainty regarding domain registration legitimacy. Overall, the site is trustworthy, professional, and well-maintained, serving its audience effectively.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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 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

The United Cup website positions itself as an important sports media and event platform within the tennis industry, leveraging partnerships with ATP and WTA. Its business model revolves around event promotion, ticket sales, and media content distribution. The site features a broad partnership ecosystem including major sponsors and strategic partners, enhancing its market credibility. The target customer segments include tennis fans, sports media consumers, and volunteers. Growth indicators include active news updates, video content, and social media engagement. The site’s operations reflect a medium-sized enterprise with a focus on sports entertainment and media.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data in the HTML content. It uses reputable third-party monitoring and analytics services such as New Relic and Google Tag Manager. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not detected, which could be improved to enhance protection against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is publicly available, indicating a potential gap in transparency. The lack of WHOIS data reduces trust in domain registration but does not directly impact site security. Overall, the site maintains a secure environment suitable for its business operations but could benefit from enhanced security policies and disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure legitimacy and reduce suspicion.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and advertising integrations to mitigate potential security risks.

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based front-end with integration of New Relic for performance monitoring and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. It loads fonts from Google Fonts and icons from FontAwesome. Advertising is managed through Google Ad Manager and DoubleClick. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO meta tags and structured navigation. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Performance is moderate with some room for optimization. Accessibility is basic but functional. The technical infrastructure supports a professional sports media site with standard industry tools and practices.
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.
