Botas is an e-commerce retailer specializing in traditional Czech handcrafted footwear for men and women. Founded in 2020, the company positions itself as a heritage brand offering both classic and modern shoe styles. The website is built on the Shopify platform, leveraging a modern tech stack including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Microsoft Clarity, Mixpanel, and Cookiebot for consent management. The site demonstrates good digital maturity with fast performance, mobile optimization, and consistent branding. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced, domain transfer locks, and cookie consent mechanisms, though DNSSEC is not enabled and some security headers could be improved. Privacy compliance is basic, lacking explicit privacy and terms of service pages, and no direct contact information is found in the analyzed content. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy with moderate risk due to missing compliance documentation.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
Botas operates in the niche market of quality footwear retail, targeting customers interested in authentic Czech shoe craftsmanship. The business model is direct-to-consumer e-commerce via Shopify, enabling international reach. The company leverages multiple marketing and analytics tools to optimize customer engagement and retargeting. The brand emphasizes heritage and quality, which may provide competitive advantage in its segment. The absence of visible contact details and compliance documents suggests room for improvement in customer trust and regulatory adherence. The company appears small in size but with a clear market focus and growing digital presence.
Security posture
The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain status flags preventing unauthorized transfers or updates. Cookie consent is managed via Cookiebot, supporting GDPR compliance. Multiple analytics and marketing scripts are used, which increases the attack surface but no vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected. DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended enhancement for DNS security. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which could hinder transparency and response readiness. Overall, the site is secure but could benefit from additional security headers and published policies.
Recommendations
Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security.
Publish comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
Add clear contact information including email and phone for customer and security incident reporting.
Implement additional HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize security risks.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built on Shopify, utilizing its CDN and infrastructure for hosting and performance. It uses modern web fonts from Google Fonts and Shopify's font CDN. The site loads multiple analytics and marketing scripts asynchronously, including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Microsoft Clarity, Mixpanel, and Fathom Analytics. Cookie consent is managed by Cookiebot with a visible consent dialog. The site is mobile optimized and performs well with fast loading times. Accessibility is basic but present. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No CMS other than Shopify is detected. Hosting is via Shopify's platform with Cloudflare DNS. The technical implementation is solid with room for minor improvements in accessibility and security headers.
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.
