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

Cycology Clothing US is an e-commerce retailer specializing in cycling apparel and gear, targeting cycling enthusiasts primarily in the United States and other supported international markets. The company offers unique and original cycling clothing designs, emphasizing quality fabrics and free shipping over a certain order value. The website is built on the Shopify platform, leveraging a modern tech stack including Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, Facebook SDK, Klaviyo, and Hotjar for marketing, analytics, and customer engagement. The site demonstrates good digital maturity with responsive design, SEO optimization, and integration of customer reviews and loyalty programs. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement, security headers, and CAPTCHA protections, though there is room for improvement in publishing formal security policies and vulnerability disclosures. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain reduces trust slightly, but the active and professional online presence mitigates this concern. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and professional e-commerce experience with moderate risk.

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

3 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.

    • 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.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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 business operates in the retail and e-commerce sectors, focusing on niche cycling apparel. It maintains multiple country-specific domains indicating an international market approach. The business model is direct-to-consumer online sales, supported by marketing automation and customer loyalty tools. Competitive advantages include unique designs and quality materials. The company uses a variety of marketing and analytics tools to optimize customer acquisition and retention. The presence of multiple partner domains suggests a networked brand strategy. Growth indicators include active marketing, international shipping options, and integration of back-in-stock notifications. The company appears medium-sized with a professional digital footprint but lacks publicly disclosed corporate registration details.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented. Use of CAPTCHA on forms and absence of exposed sensitive data are positive indicators. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates gaps in formal security governance. The use of multiple third-party scripts necessitates ongoing vulnerability management. Compliance with GDPR is indicated by privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms. No critical vulnerabilities or malware indicators were detected. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by formalizing policies and disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  2. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  3. Enhance Content-Security-Policy headers to reduce risk from third-party scripts.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Improve accessibility compliance to broaden user inclusivity and meet legal standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Shopify using the Dawn theme, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as Swiper.js and jQuery. It integrates multiple marketing and analytics platforms including Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, Facebook SDK, Klaviyo, Hotjar, and Okendo for reviews. Hosting is via Shopify's CDN, ensuring good availability and performance. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses proper meta tags for SEO. Accessibility features are basic but present. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in script loading and optimization. The technical infrastructure supports a scalable e-commerce operation but requires continuous monitoring of third-party dependencies for security and performance.
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.
