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

Die Natur is a small Austrian e-commerce retailer specializing in agricultural and gardening products such as protective covers, composting materials, pest control, and specialist literature. The website is primarily in German and targets agricultural professionals and gardening enthusiasts within Austria. The business operates a niche online store with a focus on specialized products and offers delivery services. Technically, the site is built on an older osCommerce platform with multiple legacy JavaScript libraries, which may pose security risks. The site uses HTTPS and implements basic GDPR compliance mechanisms such as a privacy policy and cookie consent banner. However, it lacks modern security headers and explicit contact information on the website. Overall, the website is functional with good content quality and moderate technical implementation but would benefit from modernization and enhanced security practices.

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. 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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. 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

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

  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 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 384-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 company positions itself as a niche retailer in the Austrian agricultural and gardening market, offering specialized products like Strohschutzvlies and compost protection materials. Its business model is direct online sales with a focus on product variety within its sector. The presence of social media links and a cookie consent banner indicates some digital maturity, but the absence of detailed contact information and security policies suggests room for improvement in transparency and customer engagement. The hosting by GRUBER WEBSERVICES indicates a regional hosting provider partnership. No evidence of subsidiaries or parent companies was found, suggesting an independent small business operation.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and includes a cookie consent mechanism, indicating awareness of privacy and security requirements. However, the use of outdated JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.7.2 introduces potential vulnerabilities. The absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces the site's defense-in-depth posture. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is published, which limits transparency in security management. The lack of direct contact information for security or abuse reporting further weakens incident response readiness. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires updates and formalization of security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Update all JavaScript libraries and dependencies to current secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement standard HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish clear contact information including security and abuse reporting channels to improve incident response capabilities.
  4. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility to improve user experience and compliance with accessibility standards.
  5. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to foster transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a legacy osCommerce platform with multiple older jQuery plugins and UI components. The CSS grid system is based on the 960 Grid System, and Google Fonts are used for typography. The site is hosted by GRUBER WEBSERVICES, a regional hosting provider. Performance is moderate with some room for improvement in mobile responsiveness and accessibility. The HTML structure is valid but dated, and SEO optimization is basic. Modernization of the tech stack and adoption of responsive design frameworks would improve technical robustness and user experience.
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.
