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

Wodka Throwdown is a Finnish sports competition event website focused on organizing and promoting athletic competitions with a clear target audience of athletes and spectators. The site provides event schedules, ticketing information, and partner details, leveraging a Squarespace platform with integrated video and livestream capabilities. The technical infrastructure is modern and secure, with HTTPS and HSTS enabled, but lacks comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, which impacts compliance. The absence of WHOIS registration data raises legitimacy concerns, though the active social media presence and professional site design support business credibility. Strategic improvements in privacy compliance, contact transparency, and domain registration verification are recommended to enhance trust and security.

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

7 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

  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 Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…
  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

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 business operates in the niche sports event sector in Finland, organizing competitions with elite and Rx series athletes. Revenue is likely generated through ticket sales and possibly sponsorships, as indicated by partner logos. The company maintains a consistent brand presence online and on social media, targeting a mature audience interested in sports and related events. The partnership ecosystem includes local venues and sports-related brands. Growth indicators include scheduled events and multimedia content offerings. However, the lack of detailed company registration and contact information limits full business intelligence assessment.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with enforced HTTPS and HSTS headers, reducing risks of man-in-the-middle attacks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. However, the absence of privacy and cookie policies, as well as lack of incident response contacts or security frameworks, indicates gaps in compliance and readiness. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present, which could hinder responsible vulnerability reporting. Overall, the security maturity is moderate with room for improvement in governance and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to meet GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  2. Add clear contact information including security and incident response contacts.
  3. Implement a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure page to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.
  5. Verify and update domain WHOIS registration to ensure legitimacy and reduce risk.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Squarespace CMS, utilizing Typekit fonts and Plyr video player for multimedia content. Hosting is managed by Squarespace, providing reliable infrastructure and SSL certificates. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility. SEO optimization is basic with proper meta tags but could be improved with richer structured data and content. The site uses third-party scripts such as Liveto.io for livestreaming, which should be regularly audited for security. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but can benefit from enhanced SEO and accessibility 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.
