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

Addmotor is an established e-commerce business specializing in electric bikes and trikes, targeting health-conscious and outdoor enthusiast adults primarily in the United States. The company offers a variety of electric trikes and bikes with a focus on quality, affordability, and fast USA shipping. Their market position is that of a niche leader in electric trikes with a solid online presence and customer engagement through social media and affiliate programs. Technically, the website employs a modern tech stack including jQuery, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Affirm payment integration, hosted on Alibaba Cloud. Accessibility features are implemented via EqualWeb, and the site is mobile optimized with good SEO practices. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and secure payment gateways, though some security headers could be improved and a formal security policy is absent. Overall, the domain is legitimate, long-standing, and consistent with the business claims, with no signs of blocking or WAF interference. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing security and incident response policies, and considering a vulnerability disclosure program.

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. 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 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

  4. 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

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

Addmotor operates in the transportation sector focusing on electric mobility solutions. Their business model is direct-to-consumer e-commerce with a strong emphasis on electric trikes and bikes. Revenue streams likely include product sales and financing options via Affirm. The company leverages multiple affiliate marketing platforms and social media channels to drive traffic and sales. Their competitive advantage lies in product specialization, USA shipping, and customer service. Growth indicators include active marketing, customer reviews, and product variety. Partnerships with payment processors and affiliate networks strengthen their ecosystem. The company appears medium-sized with a decade-plus history, indicating operational stability.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data in the HTML. Use of secure payment gateways and cookie consent mechanisms are positive indicators. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and security.txt files indicates room for improvement in transparency and preparedness. Security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not explicitly detected and should be implemented to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No vulnerabilities or malware were detected in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for e-commerce but could be enhanced to meet higher compliance standards.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or publish a security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of legacy and modern JavaScript libraries, primarily jQuery, alongside multiple analytics and marketing integrations such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Bing UET, and Affirm. Hosting is provided by Alibaba Cloud, indicating a reliable infrastructure. Performance is moderate with room for optimization, especially considering multiple third-party scripts. Accessibility is addressed with EqualWeb integration, enhancing usability for disabled users. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data for products. The CMS is not explicitly identified, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. Technical risks include dependency on multiple external scripts which could impact load times and security if not managed properly.
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.
