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

Akris CH operates a professional luxury fashion e-commerce website targeting women in Switzerland and Liechtenstein. The site offers high-end designer clothing and handbags, positioning itself as a premium brand with a consistent and elegant online presence. The business leverages Shopify as its platform, integrating advanced search (Algolia), marketing tools (Cookiebot, Mailchimp), and customer engagement features (Wishlist King, Globo Form Builder). The website content is rich, well-structured, and professionally designed, providing a seamless user experience with clear navigation and mobile optimization. Technically, the site is built on a modern e-commerce stack with Shopify hosting behind Cloudflare CDN. It uses multiple third-party scripts for analytics, marketing, and customer interaction. However, a critical security issue is the absence of a valid SSL certificate, resulting in no HTTPS encryption and no enabled TLS protocols. This severely impacts the security posture and user trust, despite the presence of strong security headers and content security policies. Privacy compliance is well addressed with explicit privacy and cookie policies, GDPR consent mechanisms, and transparent data collection practices. Contact information is available primarily via contact forms and multiple regional email addresses, supporting customer service and boutique inquiries. Overall, while the business and technical maturity are strong, the lack of proper SSL/TLS configuration is a major risk that must be remediated urgently to protect customer data and maintain brand reputation.

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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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

Akris CH is a medium-sized luxury retail business focused on the Swiss market, offering premium designer fashion and accessories. The company maintains a strong brand identity with consistent messaging and a comprehensive product catalog segmented by collections and categories. The e-commerce model is direct-to-consumer via Shopify, supported by integrated marketing and analytics tools. The presence of multiple regional contact emails indicates a geographically segmented customer support strategy. The site’s partnership ecosystem includes Shopify, Algolia, Cookiebot, and other SaaS providers enhancing search, compliance, and customer engagement. The business shows signs of digital maturity with advanced search and personalization features, though performance metrics are not explicitly available. The company’s market position is that of a high-end luxury brand with a focus on quality and exclusivity.

Security posture

The website demonstrates good security practices in HTTP headers, including strict transport security, content security policy, X-Frame-Options, and XSS protection. However, the SSL/TLS configuration is critically deficient: no valid SSL certificate is detected, no TLS protocols are enabled, and no cipher suites are configured. This exposes the site to risks of data interception and undermines user trust. The site does not implement OCSP stapling or session resumption, and certificate transparency compliance is lacking. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are found on the site. Overall, the security posture is poor due to the missing HTTPS encryption, despite other header protections.

Recommendations

  1. Immediately install and configure a valid SSL certificate to enable HTTPS and secure user data.
  2. Enable modern TLS protocols (TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3) and strong cipher suites to protect data in transit.
  3. Implement OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve SSL performance and reliability.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to avoid introducing vulnerabilities.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Shopify, leveraging its e-commerce platform capabilities and integrating Algolia for search, Cookiebot for cookie consent, Globo Form Builder for forms, and Wishlist King for customer engagement. Hosting is via Cloudflare CDN, providing performance and security benefits. The site uses modern JavaScript modules and asynchronous script loading to optimize performance. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Accessibility is basic but present, with responsive design and ARIA roles in modals. Performance metrics are not provided, but the site uses lazy loading for images and videos. The main technical risk is the lack of SSL/TLS, which is critical for e-commerce sites handling sensitive customer data.
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.
