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

Christensen Arms operates as a specialized manufacturer and retailer of hunting and long-range precision rifles, targeting firearm enthusiasts and hunters. The company has a well-established online presence with a professional e-commerce website built on WordPress and WooCommerce, supported by SEO and marketing tools such as Yoast SEO and Google Tag Manager. The domain is long-standing, registered since 1998, which aligns with the company's founding year, indicating a stable business history. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies and is hosted on Bluehost, with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. Security practices include HTTPS enforcement and bot protection via reCAPTCHA, but lack advanced security headers and DNSSEC, which could be improved. Privacy compliance is weak, with no visible privacy or cookie policies, and no GDPR indicators, which poses a compliance risk. The security posture is moderate, with no critical vulnerabilities detected but room for improvement in security headers and disclosure policies. The absence of contact information and incident response details limits transparency. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional but should enhance privacy and security compliance to reduce risk and improve user trust.

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

7 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 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 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. 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.

    • High

      SPF DNS Lookup Limit Exceeded

      SPF record requires 11 DNS lookups (max 10)

      What to do: Reduce includes and mechanisms to stay under limit

  4. 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

Christensen Arms holds a niche market position in the firearms retail sector, focusing on high-quality hunting and precision rifles. Their business model combines manufacturing with direct online sales, leveraging e-commerce platforms. The company targets hunters and precision shooters, offering specialized products that differentiate them from general firearm retailers. The website's integration with marketing and analytics tools suggests active customer engagement and growth orientation. The lack of visible contact details and compliance documentation may affect customer confidence and regulatory adherence. The company benefits from a long domain history and consistent branding, supporting its credibility in the market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and clientTransferProhibited domain status to prevent unauthorized transfers. However, the absence of DNSSEC and key security headers such as Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy reduces its defense-in-depth. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present, limiting transparency and incident response readiness. The use of reCAPTCHA helps mitigate automated threats. Privacy compliance is lacking, with no privacy or cookie policies detected, which may expose the company to regulatory risks. Overall, the security posture is adequate but requires enhancements to meet best practices and compliance standards.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement comprehensive Content Security Policy and other security headers (X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy).
  3. Publish clear privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms to comply with GDPR and other regulations.
  4. Create a security.txt file and vulnerability disclosure page to improve transparency and incident response.
  5. Add visible and verified contact information including emails and phone numbers to enhance trust and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with WooCommerce, leveraging popular plugins like Yoast SEO and Google Tag Manager for SEO and analytics. Hosting is provided by Bluehost, a reputable provider. The site uses modern JavaScript libraries and asynchronous script loading for performance optimization. Mobile responsiveness and SEO optimization are good, though accessibility features are basic. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed and security header implementation. The technical stack is mature but could benefit from modernization in security practices and enhanced privacy compliance.
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.
