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

The website 'Χρυσή Εταιρεία' operates as a Greek business awards platform that recognizes companies with the best customer ratings. It aggregates and analyzes online reviews from trusted sources such as Google Maps and Facebook to identify top-performing companies in various sectors and regions within Greece. The platform offers a searchable directory of award-winning companies and allows these companies to use a special logo for marketing purposes. The target audience includes both businesses seeking recognition and consumers looking for reliable service providers. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including JavaScript and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. The site is mobile-optimized and features a professional design with clear navigation. However, it lacks some advanced security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, which are important for GDPR compliance and enhanced security posture. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with a good SSL configuration, but no explicit security headers were detected. There is no publicly available security policy, incident response information, or vulnerability disclosure program. The WHOIS data is unavailable or privacy protected, which is common for .eu domains but limits domain age and registrant verification. Overall, the site appears legitimate and professional but could improve its security and privacy compliance. Strategically, the platform should focus on implementing security best practices, enhancing privacy compliance with cookie consent, and publishing clear contact and security policies to build greater trust with users and partners.

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. 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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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';…

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 platform positions itself as a niche awards and review aggregator for Greek companies, leveraging customer feedback from major online platforms to establish credibility. Its business model revolves around promoting top-rated companies and offering them marketing advantages such as logo usage and exclusive marketing packages. The site links to partner domains in other European countries, indicating a broader regional network. The absence of direct contact details on the main page suggests a focus on digital engagement primarily through forms. Growth potential lies in expanding partnerships and enhancing user engagement through richer content and transparency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible sensitive data exposure. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of a cookie consent mechanism indicate gaps in security best practices and GDPR compliance. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. The use of Google Tag Manager introduces moderate user tracking, which should be balanced with privacy considerations. Overall, the security posture is adequate but requires improvements to meet higher compliance and trust standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to comply with GDPR and improve user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to demonstrate preparedness and build trust.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance contact information visibility by providing verified company emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based frontend with asynchronous loading of Google Tag Manager scripts for analytics. The HTML structure is valid and includes responsive design elements for mobile optimization. SEO is supported by appropriate meta tags and Open Graph properties. However, no CMS or backend platform is explicitly detected. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. Accessibility features are basic but present. The site lacks advanced security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, which are technical debt areas to address.
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.
