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

CrushSuite is a niche e-commerce solution focused on simplifying wine compliance and sales for Shopify merchants. Founded in 2019, it offers a specialized app that integrates compliance management, product syncing, tax calculations, and age verification directly within Shopify stores. The company targets wineries and wine retailers seeking to streamline their online sales while maintaining regulatory compliance. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with clear messaging and calls to action, supported by partner logos and customer testimonials. Technically, the website uses modern web technologies including ES modules, Google Fonts, and Cloudflare DNS services. It is optimized for mobile and SEO, with good performance and accessibility basics. The platform is hosted likely on Cloudflare infrastructure and integrates tightly with Shopify. No major technical issues or vulnerabilities were detected, though security headers could be improved and DNSSEC is not enabled. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses domain status locks to prevent unauthorized transfers or updates. However, it lacks published security policies, incident response contacts, and terms of service. Privacy compliance is basic with a privacy policy and cookie consent banner present, but no explicit GDPR compliance statements. No direct contact emails or phone numbers are publicly listed, limiting direct communication channels. Overall, CrushSuite demonstrates a solid business and technical foundation with a clear market niche and professional online presence. Security posture is adequate but could be enhanced with additional policies and technical controls. Privacy compliance is basic but present. The site is safe for general and mature audiences given its alcohol-related content. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, adding security headers, publishing terms of service and incident response policies, and improving privacy compliance disclosures.

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. 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.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  2. 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';…

  3. 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

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

CrushSuite occupies a specialized niche in the wine e-commerce compliance market, leveraging Shopify's platform to deliver a SaaS solution tailored to wineries and wine retailers. Its competitive advantage lies in deep integration with compliance providers like VinoShipper and features such as state-specific shipping rules, tax calculations, and age verification. The subscription pricing model with starter and pro tiers supports scalability for small to growing wineries. The presence of partner logos and testimonials indicates established industry relationships and customer trust. The company appears focused on the US market given the state compliance emphasis but does not explicitly state country. Growth potential exists through expanding compliance features and partnerships. The lack of direct contact emails and phone numbers suggests a primarily digital-first customer engagement model.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses domain status locks to protect domain integrity. However, it lacks advanced security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could mitigate common web attacks. No security or incident response policies are published, and no dedicated security contact channels are provided. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure or security certifications. Privacy compliance is basic with a privacy policy and cookie consent banner but no explicit GDPR compliance statements. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Overall, the security posture is moderate, suitable for a SaaS e-commerce app but with room for improvement in transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Create and publish a terms of service page to clarify user agreements and legal protections.
  4. Develop and disclose an incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels (e.g., security@crushsuite.com).
  5. Enhance privacy compliance disclosures to explicitly address GDPR and other relevant regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern JavaScript modules and Google Fonts, hosted behind Cloudflare DNS services, indicating a contemporary and performant infrastructure. It integrates tightly with Shopify as a platform, leveraging its ecosystem for e-commerce functionality. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or headless approach. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. Accessibility is basic but present. There is no evidence of heavy analytics or tracking scripts, which reduces privacy concerns but also limits marketing insights. The technical stack is appropriate for the business model but could benefit from additional security hardening and performance monitoring.
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.
