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

vFairs operates a comprehensive event management platform specializing in hybrid, in-person, and virtual events. The company offers a broad suite of services including event registration, ticketing, mobile apps, virtual event hosting, and engagement tools such as gamification and networking. Their market position is strong, supported by a large user base and high customer satisfaction ratings. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern integrations for analytics, marketing, and multilingual support, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforcement and cookie consent mechanisms, though some security headers and explicit incident response policies could be improved. Overall, the website is professional, user-friendly, and trustworthy, but the lack of WHOIS registration data introduces some uncertainty regarding domain legitimacy.

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

5 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.

    • 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. 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.

  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
    • 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

vFairs targets event organizers across multiple industries, providing a SaaS platform that supports event lifecycle management from planning to execution and analytics. Their business model is B2B SaaS with revenue streams likely from subscriptions and service fees. The company leverages partnerships and subdomains for resources, developer support, and compliance transparency. Their competitive advantage lies in the breadth of features and strong customer support. The website content and structure indicate a large, established company with a global reach, though explicit founding year and parent company information are not disclosed.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS and cookie consent. Use of HubSpot forms and third-party analytics is managed with privacy considerations. However, the absence of a published vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file limits transparency for security researchers. Security headers are not explicitly confirmed in the HTML, suggesting room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. Incident response contact information is not publicly available, which could hinder timely reporting of security issues.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting and improve security transparency.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  4. Provide explicit incident response contact channels to improve readiness and communication in case of security incidents.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and integrations to mitigate risks from external dependencies.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress CMS with extensive use of JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Slick Carousel for UI components. Integration with HubSpot for forms and marketing automation, along with multiple analytics and tracking services such as Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Facebook Pixel, and LinkedIn Insight Tag, indicates a sophisticated marketing and data collection infrastructure. Multilingual support is enabled via Weglot. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. Hosting provider details are not explicit, but the presence of multiple CDN and tracking domains suggests a distributed infrastructure. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts which require ongoing security management.
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.
