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

World of Tanks EU is the European portal for the popular MMO tank battle game developed by Wargaming.net. The website serves as a gateway for players to access game information, community features, clan wars, and tournaments. It targets gamers interested in mid-20th century armored warfare and offers a free-to-play business model with in-game purchases. The site is well-branded and maintains a consistent professional appearance, reflecting its position as a leading online multiplayer game in Europe. Technically, the site employs a modern JavaScript stack including jQuery, Lodash, and Google Tag Manager, with cookie consent managed by OneTrust, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS, uses CSRF tokens, and implements cookie consent mechanisms, though it lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. Overall, the site is accessible, trustworthy, and professionally maintained, with room for improvement in privacy and security transparency.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

  2. 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

The website represents a large technology company specializing in online gaming, specifically MMO tank battles. Its market positioning is strong within the European gaming community, leveraging a free-to-play model supported by microtransactions. The business benefits from a robust community ecosystem including clans and tournaments, enhancing player engagement and retention. Partnerships with regional domains and official Wargaming portals strengthen its ecosystem. The absence of direct contact information on the main page suggests a focus on digital self-service and community support. The company’s branding and high user ratings indicate a well-established market presence with significant user trust.

Security posture

The security posture of the website is solid with mandatory HTTPS and CSRF protections in place. The use of OneTrust for cookie consent demonstrates compliance efforts with privacy regulations such as GDPR. However, the lack of visible security headers like Content-Security-Policy and absence of published security or incident response policies represent gaps in transparency and defense-in-depth. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The site would benefit from publishing a security.txt file and explicit vulnerability disclosure guidelines to enhance trust and readiness. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be improved with additional best practices and documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the main site.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information, including a security.txt file for vulnerability disclosures.
  4. Enhance accessibility features and conduct an accessibility audit to improve inclusivity.
  5. Increase transparency on data retention policies and user tracking to improve privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a mature and widely adopted technology stack including jQuery, Lodash, and Google Tag Manager, supported by Wargaming's own SDK scripts. The site loads resources from multiple CDNs and employs OneTrust for cookie management, indicating a focus on compliance and user experience. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, especially in mobile responsiveness and accessibility. The site lacks a detected CMS, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. The hosting and domain registration are consistent with a professional gaming company. Technical risks are low but could be mitigated by updating security headers and improving privacy documentation.
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.
