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

4 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 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. 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

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

tegut... holds a strong market position in the German retail sector, particularly in organic and regional food markets. Their competitive advantage lies in their long-standing reputation, extensive product range, and commitment to sustainability. Revenue streams likely include in-store sales, online sales, and loyalty program-driven promotions. The target customer base is health-conscious and environmentally aware consumers. The company maintains a robust partnership ecosystem, including affiliations with Amazon for online sales and active social media engagement. Awards and certifications further enhance their brand credibility and market trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enforced and the use of a Consent Management Platform (Usercentrics) to comply with GDPR requirements. Security best practices such as opt-out mechanisms for Google Analytics and secure form handling are observed. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not visibly declared, representing an area for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly detailed, which could be enhanced to improve transparency and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement explicit security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy) to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to enhance trust and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance transparency around data retention policies related to analytics and marketing tools.
  5. Continue to maintain and improve accessibility and mobile optimization to serve a broad customer base effectively.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Bootstrap for responsive design and user interaction. Integration with multiple marketing and analytics platforms (Google Tag Manager, TikTok Pixel, Emarsys) indicates a mature digital marketing strategy. Performance is moderate with deferred script loading and optimized images. Accessibility features like ARIA labels and keyboard navigation aids are present, contributing to a good user experience. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph data, and structured JSON-LD markup. The technical infrastructure supports a scalable and maintainable platform suitable for a large retail business.
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.
