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

Charlotte Tilbury is a well-established luxury beauty brand specializing in makeup, skincare, and fragrance products. The website targets the European market with localized content and currency options. The brand operates a sophisticated e-commerce platform leveraging modern web technologies such as React and Next.js, ensuring a fast and responsive user experience. The site demonstrates strong branding consistency and professional design, reinforcing its market position as a premium retailer. Security measures including HTTPS and comprehensive security headers are in place, contributing to a robust security 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

No critical or high findings. These medium findings are worth fixing next.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Medium

      Privacy policy may not be GDPR compliant

      Privacy policy lacks explicit GDPR compliance elements

      What to do: Update privacy policy to explicitly address GDPR requirements and user rights

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Medium

      No MTA-STS Policy

      MTA-STS enforces TLS for email delivery

      What to do: Implement MTA-STS to prevent downgrade attacks

  3. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • Medium

      DNSSEC Not Enabled

      DNSSEC is not configured for this domain

      What to do: Enable DNSSEC to prevent DNS spoofing attacks

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Charlotte Tilbury operates in the retail sector focusing on luxury cosmetics and skincare. The business model is primarily e-commerce with a loyalty program to enhance customer retention. The company targets consumers interested in high-end beauty products across Europe, supported by localized shipping and currency options. The brand benefits from strong market recognition and a consistent digital presence. Partnerships with advertising and analytics providers like AppsFlyer and Google Analytics support marketing efforts. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers in the analyzed content suggests reliance on web forms for customer interaction. The company is likely a large enterprise given its global reach and sophisticated digital infrastructure.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, presence of key security headers, and secure handling of user authentication forms. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms align with GDPR requirements, indicating compliance focus. However, the lack of a public security policy or incident response contact information represents an area for improvement. The missing WHOIS data raises minor concerns but is mitigated by the professional nature of the site. Overall, the security risk is low with recommendations to publish vulnerability disclosure and incident response details to enhance trust.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  4. Enhance transparency by listing the Data Protection Officer contact information.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and tracking pixels for security compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern JavaScript frameworks, primarily React and Next.js, enabling server-side rendering and optimized performance. The use of SVG icons and responsive CSS ensures excellent mobile optimization and accessibility. The site loads multiple deferred JavaScript chunks and uses external CDN resources for fonts and cookie consent scripts. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags and hreflang attributes for internationalization. Performance appears fast with preloading of critical CSS and scripts. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or headless CMS solution. Hosting provider details were not found in the provided data. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and well-implemented, supporting a high-quality user experience.
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.
