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. 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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • 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

Atari operates as a large e-commerce retailer and digital content provider in the gaming industry, capitalizing on its iconic brand legacy since 1998. The business model focuses on direct-to-consumer sales of gaming hardware, software, and branded merchandise. The website's integration with Shopify and marketing tools indicates a focus on scalable online sales and customer engagement. The presence of customer review platforms and marketing pixels suggests active efforts in reputation management and targeted advertising. The company targets gamers, retro enthusiasts, and collectors, maintaining a consistent brand image and leveraging partnerships with fulfillment and review service providers. No evidence of subsidiaries or parent companies was found, indicating Atari operates independently or under a broader corporate structure not disclosed here.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enforced and domain status protections (serverDeleteProhibited, serverTransferProhibited, serverUpdateProhibited). Use of hCaptcha on forms adds protection against automated abuse. However, the absence of DNSSEC reduces DNS security. No explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected in the HTML content, which could be improved. There is no visible security policy, incident response contact, or vulnerability disclosure program, which are important for transparency and trust. No sensitive data exposure or vulnerable libraries were identified in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  3. Implement and expose explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide a public security policy and incident response contact information to increase transparency and trust.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Shopify platform using the Dawn theme and incorporates modern JavaScript modules and libraries such as Swiper.js and CreateJS. It uses third-party services for reviews (Judge.me), marketing (Google Ads, Facebook Pixel, Reddit), and product customization (Printful). The site loads multiple asynchronous scripts to enhance functionality and user experience. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The hosting is via Shopify's CDN, ensuring reliable uptime and scalability. Technical debt appears low, but the site could benefit from explicit security header implementation and improved privacy compliance mechanisms.
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.
