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

AfterShip is a technology company specializing in e-commerce email marketing automation, targeting Shopify store owners and online retailers. Their platform enables no-code scenario-based email campaigns such as newsletters, welcome emails, order follow-ups, and birthday emails, enhancing post-purchase customer engagement. The company positions itself as a key player in the e-commerce automation space with a broad integration ecosystem. Technically, the website leverages modern frameworks like React and Next.js, supported by a robust analytics and marketing stack including Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, HubSpot, and Bing Ads. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile responsiveness, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and employs standard security headers, indicating good baseline security hygiene. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response information, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests room for improvement in transparency and security maturity. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy, though the lack of WHOIS data transparency and presence of a suspicious tracking domain slightly reduce the trust score. Strategic enhancements in security communication and WHOIS transparency would further strengthen the company's credibility.

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

1 finding 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 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

AfterShip operates in the e-commerce technology sector, offering SaaS solutions for email marketing automation and post-purchase customer engagement. Their competitive advantage lies in seamless integrations with major e-commerce platforms like Shopify and partnerships with marketing and logistics providers such as Klaviyo, Attentive, and Shipbob. The business model focuses on subscription-based services targeting medium to large e-commerce businesses seeking to improve customer retention and marketing efficiency. Growth indicators include extensive use of analytics, marketing automation, and a broad partner ecosystem. The company maintains a consistent brand presence and professional content, supporting its market position as a reliable technology provider.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with enforced HTTPS, modern security headers, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. The use of reputable third-party analytics and marketing tools is balanced with privacy compliance measures such as cookie consent banners and comprehensive privacy policies. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response plans, and vulnerability disclosure channels indicates gaps in security transparency and readiness. The presence of a suspicious tracking domain (mv.icu) warrants further scrutiny to ensure no privacy or security risks to users. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from enhanced communication and formalized security governance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and user trust.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program, including a security.txt file.
  3. Review and audit third-party tracking domains to remove or replace suspicious sources like mv.icu.
  4. Provide clear contact information for a Data Protection Officer or security contact to comply with GDPR and enhance trust.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

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.
