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

Venuzle is an Austrian-based online platform specializing in the discovery and booking of sports venues, courses, and camps. It serves sports enthusiasts and local communities by providing a comprehensive directory and booking system for various sports facilities such as football fields, tennis courts, gyms, and specialized courses. The platform is supported by local government and regional partners, enhancing its credibility and reach within Austria. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with WooCommerce and WP Job Manager plugins, integrating Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel for marketing and analytics purposes. While the site is well-structured and offers a good user experience with mobile optimization, it uses outdated WordPress and WooCommerce versions, which may pose security risks. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enforced but lacking some modern security headers and cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the website is trustworthy, professionally maintained, and compliant with GDPR, but would benefit from technical updates and enhanced security practices.

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.

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

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

  2. Security headers

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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

Venuzle occupies a niche market in Austria, focusing on sports venue and course bookings. Its business model revolves around providing an online marketplace that connects sports providers with customers seeking to book facilities or enroll in courses. The platform's partnerships with local government entities and regional organizations strengthen its market position and trustworthiness. Revenue streams likely include booking fees or commissions. The target audience includes individuals and groups interested in sports activities across various Austrian regions. The platform demonstrates growth potential through its comprehensive listings and online booking capabilities. Strategic partnerships and a clear focus on regional sports services provide competitive advantages. However, the business should prioritize technical modernization and enhanced privacy compliance to maintain and grow its user base.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and employs anonymization in Google Analytics, indicating a baseline commitment to security and privacy. However, the use of outdated WordPress and WooCommerce versions introduces potential vulnerabilities. The absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present. The site lacks a cookie consent mechanism, which is a GDPR compliance gap. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires updates and enhancements to reduce risk and improve compliance. Regular patching, implementation of security headers, and transparent security policies are recommended to strengthen the security framework.

Recommendations

  1. Update WordPress core and all plugins, especially WooCommerce, to the latest stable versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against web attacks.
  3. Deploy a cookie consent banner and mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and improve user transparency.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan on the website to build trust and preparedness.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to proactively identify and remediate risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using the Listify theme and integrates WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality and WP Job Manager for listing management. It leverages several JavaScript libraries including jQuery, Select2, and NoUiSlider for enhanced UI components. Google Maps API is used for location services. The site uses Yoast SEO plugin for search engine optimization and MonsterInsights for Google Analytics integration. Performance is moderate with mobile optimization and responsive design implemented. However, the WordPress version (4.9.12) and WooCommerce (3.5.4) are outdated, which may affect security and compatibility. The site lacks some modern security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, indicating areas for technical improvement. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified in the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but would benefit from modernization and security hardening.
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.
