VillaGaiety · Government · Isle of Man
Medium risk. 4 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view, SSL/TLS and 2 other checks.
VillaGaiety is a government-operated entertainment venue management organization based on the Isle of Man, managing premier cultural sites such as the Villa Marina and Gaiety Theatre. The website serves as a comprehensive portal for event information, ticketing, venue hire, and visitor information, targeting local residents and visitors interested in arts and entertainment. The business model revolves around event hosting, ticket sales, and venue services, positioning VillaGaiety as a leading cultural institution on the island. Technically, the website employs a mature technology stack including jQuery, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and integrates with the Ticketsolve platform for ticketing. The site is moderately performant, mobile-optimized, and includes accessibility features, though some improvements could be made. SEO practices are good with proper meta tags and structured navigation. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks explicit security headers and documented security policies. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies, and GDPR compliance indicators are present. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-aligned with its government affiliation. Recommendations include enhancing security headers, documenting security policies, and improving accessibility compliance to further strengthen the security posture and user experience.
Scanned
NIS2 Art. 21(2)
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.
4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.
GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data
What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS
TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.
Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception
What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS
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.
Prevents clickjacking attacks
What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"
DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.
SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email
What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email security

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
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.

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.
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.
Risk levels
Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.

No leaked records found

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
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.
