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

Covetrus Care Plans operates a professional website focused on providing pet wellness plans and programs, targeting veterinary professionals and pet owners. The business is positioned within the healthcare sector, specifically veterinary wellness, and is a part of the larger Covetrus organization. The website presents a consistent brand image with good content quality and a clear focus on its services. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using Elementor and integrates several marketing and analytics tools such as Pardot and Google Analytics, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data, but lacks visible security headers and explicit privacy or cookie policies, which are areas for improvement. Overall, the site is safe, professional, and trustworthy, but could enhance privacy compliance and security posture to better align with industry best practices.

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

6 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

  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

    • 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

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

The company targets a niche market in veterinary healthcare by offering wellness plans for pets, likely generating revenue through service subscriptions or partnerships with veterinary clinics. The presence of Pardot marketing automation suggests active lead generation and customer engagement strategies. The lack of explicit contact information on the site may indicate a focus on B2B relationships or controlled customer interactions. The website's integration with Covetrus branding implies a strong parent company backing, which supports credibility and market presence. No suspicious or unrelated domains are linked, indicating a focused partnership ecosystem.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and no visible sensitive data leaks. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces its defense-in-depth capabilities. The site uses multiple third-party scripts, which could introduce vulnerabilities if not regularly audited. There is no public vulnerability disclosure or incident response information, which limits transparency and preparedness. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies, which could expose the company to regulatory risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate but requires enhancements to meet higher standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add security headers to improve protection against common web attacks.
  3. Provide clear contact information including support and security incident contacts.
  4. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response plan.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform with Elementor page builder, leveraging popular JavaScript libraries and marketing tools. Performance is moderate with some optimization potential. Mobile responsiveness is good, but accessibility features are basic and could be improved. SEO optimization is present but minimal, with meta tags and structured data included but no advanced SEO strategies evident. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The site uses multiple analytics and marketing scripts, which require careful management to avoid performance degradation and privacy issues. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security controls.
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.
