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

2 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';…

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

Amazon.fr operates as a key regional arm of Amazon's global e-commerce ecosystem, serving millions of customers in France. Its competitive advantage lies in its vast product selection, efficient logistics, and strong brand recognition. The business model centers on online retail with multiple revenue streams including direct sales, third-party marketplace commissions, and advertising. The target customer segments range from general consumers to niche markets such as tech enthusiasts and book lovers. Growth indicators include continuous investment in technology and customer experience enhancements. The partnership ecosystem includes Amazon's global network and local service providers. Operationally, Amazon.fr benefits from Amazon's scale and innovation, maintaining a dominant market presence in French e-commerce.

Security posture

Amazon.fr demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, modern security headers, and robust client-side protections. The site uses advanced instrumentation for monitoring and error logging, indicating proactive security management. However, the absence of publicly available detailed security policies or incident response contacts suggests room for improvement in transparency. No vulnerabilities or security misconfigurations were detected in the analyzed content. Privacy compliance is well addressed with GDPR-aligned policies and consent mechanisms. The security culture appears strong, supported by Amazon's global standards, but could benefit from enhanced communication of security practices to users.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security frameworks and practices.
  2. Provide clear vulnerability disclosure guidelines or a security.txt file for researchers.
  3. Enhance visibility of incident response contacts for security and abuse reporting.
  4. Maintain and regularly update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving regulations.
  5. Continue investment in accessibility and mobile optimization to improve user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages Amazon's proprietary AmazonUI framework along with standard web technologies such as JavaScript, AJAX, and service workers to deliver a fast and responsive user experience. Hosting on Amazon AWS ensures scalability and reliability. The site includes comprehensive client-side instrumentation for performance and error tracking. SEO and accessibility features are well implemented, supporting broad user reach and compliance. Technical debt appears minimal with modern coding practices. Opportunities exist to further document technical security controls and enhance transparency around data protection measures.
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.
