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

Aftersell is a SaaS company offering a Shopify post purchase upsell application designed to help ecommerce brands increase average order value and customer retention. The company positions itself as a leader in ecommerce upselling with over 40,000 brands using its platform and claims to boost sales by 30%. The website is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and integrates with multiple marketing and analytics platforms, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. However, the domain WHOIS data is missing or inconsistent, which raises some concerns about domain registration transparency. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS and no exposed sensitive data, but the site lacks explicit privacy and cookie policies, as well as incident response information. Overall, the website is trustworthy and business credible but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance and clearer domain registration details.

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. 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 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';…

  2. 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

Aftersell operates in the ecommerce sector, targeting Shopify store owners and ecommerce brands seeking to increase revenue through upselling. Its business model is SaaS-based, providing tools for cart, checkout, and post purchase upsells. The company leverages partnerships with firms like Rokt and mParticle, enhancing its market position. The presence of extensive case studies, testimonials, and integrations indicates a well-established ecosystem. The lack of WHOIS transparency is a notable gap but does not currently undermine the business credibility significantly. The company focuses on growth-stage ecommerce brands and offers advanced targeting and analytics features, positioning itself competitively in the ecommerce marketing technology space.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a strong SSL configuration and uses reputable third-party analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, HubSpot, and Intercom. No security headers were detected in the HTML content, suggesting room for improvement in HTTP security headers like CSP and HSTS. There is no public security policy or incident response information, which is a gap in transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the content. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be enhanced by publishing security policies and implementing additional HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement and configure HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Provide clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure information accessible on the website.
  4. Clarify domain registration details or ensure WHOIS information is publicly available to improve trust.
  5. Enhance transparency by listing certifications or compliance frameworks adhered to by the company.

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.
