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. 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 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. 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

Deliveroo's market positioning as a top food delivery service is supported by its extensive partner network, corporate services, and consumer-focused offerings like gift cards and subscription plans. The business model leverages a marketplace approach, generating revenue from delivery fees, partnerships, and subscription memberships. The company targets a broad consumer base seeking convenience and variety in food and retail delivery. Strategic partnerships and a strong social media presence enhance brand visibility and customer engagement. The domain age and WHOIS data confirm a well-established entity with consistent registration details, reinforcing business legitimacy.

Security posture

The website exhibits a high security maturity level with enforced HTTPS, modern security headers, and integration of bot detection and mitigation services such as PerimeterX and PX Cloud. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a publicly available dedicated security policy or incident response contact limits transparency. Compliance with GDPR is evident through privacy and cookie policies, but further improvements could include publishing a security.txt file and explicit incident response procedures to enhance trust and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information, such as a security@ or abuse@ email address.
  3. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Enhance transparency around data retention policies and user data handling.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.

Deliveroo's website is built on a modern React/Next.js framework, leveraging a headless CMS (Storyblok) for content management. The site uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing, OneTrust for cookie consent, and Stripe for payment processing. Bot mitigation technologies are integrated to protect against automated threats. The site demonstrates fast performance, excellent mobile optimization, and good accessibility features. Hosting and domain registration are managed by reputable providers, ensuring reliability. Opportunities exist to further modernize by enhancing security transparency and expanding compliance documentation.
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.
