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

Cia. Hering is a well-established Brazilian retail clothing franchise network with a strong market position as the largest clothing franchise in Brazil. The company operates an omnichannel business model, combining physical stores and e-commerce to provide convenience to its customers. The website reflects a professional corporate presence with multilingual support and investor relations information, indicating a mature business. Technically, the site is built on WordPress and uses common web technologies and services such as Cloudflare CDN and OneTrust for cookie consent. However, the site lacks a valid SSL certificate and proper HTTPS configuration, which is a critical security issue. Security headers are present but cannot compensate for the missing SSL. Privacy compliance is partial, with a cookie consent mechanism but no visible privacy policy or terms of service. Overall, the site demonstrates good business credibility but requires urgent security improvements to protect user data and enhance 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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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

  2. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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 consumers, franchisees, resellers, investors, and job seekers, offering franchise opportunities and managing multiple clothing brands. It is part of Grupo Soma, a larger corporate group. The website content emphasizes the company's history, market leadership, and commitment to sustainability and digital transformation. The presence of investor relations and annual reports indicates transparency and corporate governance. The business model relies heavily on franchising and omnichannel retail, positioning Cia. Hering as a key player in the Brazilian retail sector.

Security posture

The website's security posture is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of HTTPS support, exposing users to potential data interception risks. While security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security are configured, HSTS is not enabled, and modern TLS protocols are disabled. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, and no security contact channels are visible. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented, indicating some privacy awareness. Overall, the site requires immediate remediation of SSL/TLS issues and enhancement of security policies to meet modern standards and compliance requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site.
  2. Enable and enforce HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload directives.
  3. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the website footer or main menu.
  4. Implement a public vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update security headers and cookie consent mechanisms to ensure GDPR and other privacy regulation compliance.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with common plugins such as Yoast SEO and Contact Form 7. It uses jQuery and Vimeo Player for media content. Hosting and CDN services are provided by Cloudflare, which offers performance and security benefits. However, performance metrics are missing, and the site is flagged as slow. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and mobile menus. SEO is supported by Yoast SEO plugin and proper meta tags including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Accessibility is basic but present. The lack of valid SSL and disabled TLS protocols represent significant technical risks. The site uses OneTrust for cookie consent, indicating some privacy compliance efforts.
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.
