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

AfterShip is a leading SaaS provider specializing in post-purchase eCommerce solutions, including shipment tracking, returns management, AI-powered delivery prediction, and warranty management. The company targets eCommerce businesses, marketplaces, and logistics providers, offering integrations with major carriers and eCommerce platforms such as Shopify, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Magento, and Amazon. The website reflects a mature digital presence with a professional design, comprehensive content, and extensive use of modern web technologies and analytics tools. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement and security headers, though explicit security policies and incident response information are not publicly disclosed. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification, but the overall business credibility and technical implementation suggest a legitimate and trustworthy operation.

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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 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

AfterShip holds a strong market position in the eCommerce technology sector, focusing on enhancing customer experience post-purchase. Its business model revolves around SaaS offerings with multiple integrations, enabling seamless shipment tracking and management across various platforms and carriers. The company leverages partnerships with major eCommerce platforms and technology providers to expand its ecosystem. Revenue streams likely include subscription plans and premium services. The website's content and structure indicate a large-scale operation with consistent branding and trust signals such as SSL and privacy compliance. Growth indicators include AI-powered features and marketplace connectors, positioning AfterShip as an innovative player in the logistics and eCommerce space.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a high level of security maturity with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and secure cookie attributes. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analysis. However, the lack of publicly available security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a gap in transparency and readiness communication. Compliance with GDPR is indicated through privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security posture is robust but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security documentation and establishing clear incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance frameworks.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Provide clear contact information for a Data Protection Officer or security team to improve trust and compliance.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency around data retention policies and incident response procedures.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including React and Next.js, supported by a headless CMS (Storyblok) and integrated with multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, HubSpot, Microsoft Clarity, and Bing Ads. Hosting appears to be managed by Automizely or a related provider. The site exhibits fast performance, excellent mobile optimization, and good accessibility features. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The technical infrastructure supports a scalable and responsive user experience, suitable for a large enterprise SaaS platform. Opportunities exist to further improve technical documentation and security transparency.
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.
