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

Cafe24 Corp. operates a well-established e-commerce platform primarily serving store owners, administrators, and suppliers. The analyzed login page is designed for administrative access, featuring multiple user roles and integration with Google services for analytics and tag management. The platform targets a global audience with a focus on e-commerce business management. Technically, the site uses standard web technologies including JavaScript and CSS, with third-party scripts from Google for analytics and tag management. The domain is registered with Gabia, Inc. since 2017, indicating a mature and stable online presence. From a security perspective, the site employs encrypted form fields and uses HTTPS, but lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or HSTS, which could enhance protection. No privacy or cookie policies are present on this page, and no consent mechanisms for tracking are visible, indicating gaps in privacy compliance. The absence of contact information and security policies reduces transparency. However, the domain WHOIS data is consistent and trustworthy, with no privacy protection masking registrant details. Overall, the website demonstrates a moderate level of technical maturity and business credibility but requires improvements in privacy compliance and security best practices. The content is safe for general audiences, with no adult or explicit material detected. Strategic enhancements in security headers, privacy disclosures, and user transparency would strengthen the platform's trustworthiness and compliance posture.

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

8 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

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

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

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

Cafe24 holds a strong position in the e-commerce platform market, providing essential services for online store management. Its business model focuses on platform-as-a-service offerings, targeting store owners and suppliers. The company benefits from a large user base and integration with global analytics tools, supporting data-driven business decisions. The lack of visible contact information and policies on this page suggests that such details may be hosted elsewhere, typical for large platforms. The company’s registration with a reputable registrar and consistent domain age support its legitimacy. Growth opportunities include enhancing privacy compliance and expanding transparent communication channels to improve customer trust and regulatory adherence.

Security posture

The current security posture shows basic protective measures such as encrypted login fields and HTTPS usage. However, the absence of critical security headers and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts indicate room for improvement. The use of third-party tracking scripts without visible consent mechanisms raises privacy concerns under GDPR and similar regulations. No immediate vulnerabilities or malware indicators were detected, but the platform would benefit from implementing comprehensive security headers, enabling DNSSEC, and publishing clear security and privacy policies. Incident response readiness and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not evident, which could impact rapid mitigation of security events.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit user consent mechanisms to comply with GDPR and other privacy laws.
  3. Add visible contact information and security incident response contacts to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities and ensure compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a standard technology stack with JavaScript, CSS, and integration of Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking. The hosting is managed through Gabia, Inc., a known registrar and hosting provider. Performance is moderate with basic mobile optimization and accessibility features. The site lacks advanced frameworks or CMS indicators in the provided content. There is no evidence of modern frontend frameworks or progressive web app features. The login forms use encrypted hidden fields, indicating some attention to secure data handling. SEO and metadata are minimal, with no Open Graph or JSON-LD structured data detected. Overall, the technical implementation is functional but could be enhanced with modern best practices and richer metadata for SEO and accessibility.
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.
