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

Augenart is a small, specialized retail optician business located in Ettlingen, Germany, combining traditional eyewear services with artistic elements. The company offers comprehensive eye refraction tests, custom eyewear manufacturing in their own workshop, VIP consultations, and contact lens fittings. Their market position is that of a local boutique optician with a unique blend of craftsmanship and art, targeting discerning customers seeking personalized eyewear solutions. Technically, the website employs modern front-end technologies such as Bootstrap, jQuery, Owl Carousel, and Swiper Slider, with Google Fonts and a cookie consent solution integrated. The site is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Hosting appears to be via generic nameservers, likely from a European hosting provider. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS (assumed though not explicitly confirmed), implements a cookie consent banner, and does not expose sensitive data in the HTML. However, no HTTP security headers were detected, and there is no explicit security policy or incident response information. The WHOIS data is limited but consistent with the business profile, showing no suspicious patterns. Privacy compliance is addressed with a privacy policy and cookie consent, indicating GDPR awareness. Overall, Augenart's website is professional, trustworthy, and suitable for its business purpose. Security posture is adequate but could be improved with additional headers and policies. The business credibility is high given the clear contact information, certifications, and detailed service descriptions. No critical issues or content safety concerns were identified.

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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  2. 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

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

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

Augenart operates in the retail sector, focusing on eyewear and optician services with a unique artistic angle. Their competitive advantage lies in combining high-quality craftsmanship with creative design and personalized VIP consultations. The business model centers on direct retail sales, custom manufacturing, and specialized services such as eye refraction and contact lens fitting. The target customers are local consumers in Ettlingen and surrounding areas who value quality and individuality. The company demonstrates growth potential through online appointment booking and a professional web presence. Partnerships or subsidiaries are not evident. The company emphasizes trust through certifications and transparent contact details, supporting a strong local market presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is presumably enabled, and cookie consent is implemented, supporting privacy compliance. However, the absence of HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options limits protection against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small retail business but would benefit from enhancements to align with best practices and regulatory requirements such as GDPR and NIS2.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance protection against web attacks.
  2. Verify and enforce HTTPS across the entire website to ensure secure data transmission.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit third-party libraries and scripts to avoid vulnerabilities and ensure up-to-date components.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic security training to foster a security-aware culture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end technology stack with Bootstrap for responsive design, jQuery for scripting, and popular carousel libraries (Owl Carousel, Swiper Slider) for interactive content. Google Fonts are used for typography, and a third-party cookie consent library (wpcc.io) manages privacy compliance. The site appears to be hosted on servers using generic nameservers (ns1.your-server.de, ns3.second-ns.de), likely indicating a European hosting provider. Performance is moderate with no explicit speed optimizations detected. The site is mobile-friendly and SEO-optimized with proper meta tags and structured navigation. There is no evidence of a CMS, suggesting a custom or static site build. Technical risks include lack of security headers and unknown SSL configuration, which should be addressed to improve overall robustness.
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.
