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

Amway Korea Ltd. operates as a subsidiary of the global Amway Corporation, providing health, beauty, and home care products through a direct selling business model in South Korea. The company has a long-established presence since 1997, reflected in the domain age and consistent registrant information. The website serves primarily as a portal redirecting users to the main content, with minimal visible content on the landing page. Technical infrastructure includes the use of jQuery and NetFunnel for traffic management, hosted on NS1 nameservers. Security posture is moderate but lacks visible security headers and DNSSEC, which are recommended for improvement. Privacy and cookie policies are not present on the landing page, indicating a gap in compliance and transparency. Overall, the website is legitimate and consistent with the business identity but could benefit from enhanced content, security, and privacy features.

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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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

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

Amway Korea holds a strong market position as a large retail entity in the direct selling sector, targeting Korean consumers interested in wellness and beauty products. The business model relies on multi-level marketing and direct sales, supported by a global parent company. The website's minimal content and lack of visible marketing or analytics tools suggest a focus on brand presence rather than direct e-commerce. Partnership with Gabia for domain registration and use of Alticor contact details reinforce corporate legitimacy. Growth opportunities include improving digital engagement and compliance with privacy regulations.

Security posture

The current security posture shows moderate maturity with HTTPS usage and domain transfer protection. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS reduces defense-in-depth. DNSSEC is not enabled, which could improve DNS security. No visible incident response or security policy pages were found, limiting transparency. The use of NetFunnel indicates some traffic management controls. Recommendations include implementing security headers, enabling DNSSEC, and publishing clear privacy and security policies to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options.
  2. Enable DNSSEC to protect DNS integrity and prevent spoofing.
  3. Publish clear and accessible privacy and cookie policies to improve compliance and user trust.
  4. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility to improve user experience.
  5. Develop and publish incident response and security policy documentation to demonstrate security maturity.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a basic technology stack centered on jQuery 3.2.1 and NetFunnel for traffic control. The hosting environment is inferred from NS1 nameservers, indicating a reliable DNS provider. The site lacks modern frameworks or CMS indicators, suggesting a custom or legacy implementation. Performance is moderate with no explicit optimization or accessibility features detected. SEO is basic with standard meta tags and Open Graph data but no structured data markup. The minimal landing page content limits user engagement and SEO potential. Technical debt is evident in the lack of modern security practices and privacy compliance features.
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.
