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

8 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

  2. 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"

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

Vet33 operates as a specialized media outlet within the veterinary healthcare sector, providing valuable content and professional development resources. Its business model revolves around content publishing, advertising via Google DFP, and partnerships with related healthcare and veterinary sites. The platform targets veterinarians and related professionals, leveraging its parent company EDRA LSWR's reputation. The presence of multiple partner domains indicates a strong ecosystem and collaborative approach. The site’s content and structure support ongoing engagement with its audience, positioning it as a key information source in the Italian veterinary market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enforcement and standard security headers. The integration of Usercentrics for cookie consent shows attention to privacy regulations. However, the use of an outdated jQuery version (1.11.3) is a notable vulnerability that could expose the site to known exploits. There is no visible security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. The absence of a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure mechanism is a gap in responsible security practices. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be improved by updating libraries and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Upgrade jQuery to the latest secure version to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Implement and expose a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Enhance Content-Security-Policy headers to reduce risks from cross-site scripting and other attacks.
  5. Consider adding visible company contact information to improve trust and user support.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for DOM manipulation, and Slick Carousel for interactive sliders. Google Tag Manager and Google Publisher Tags are used for analytics and advertising management. Usercentrics provides GDPR-compliant cookie consent management. The site appears to be custom-built or uses a proprietary CMS, as no common CMS signatures were detected. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization especially on mobile devices. Accessibility features are basic, and SEO is well addressed through meta tags and structured navigation. The outdated jQuery version is a technical debt that should be addressed to maintain security and compatibility.
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.
