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

dodenhof is a prominent retail and e-commerce business based in Germany, offering a wide range of fashion, lifestyle, furniture, and electronics products. Positioned as a leading shopping destination in Northern Germany, it provides customers with a comprehensive online shopping experience supported by a professional website built on the Magento platform. The company leverages modern web technologies and integrates marketing and tracking tools such as Google Tag Manager, Emarsys, and Trustpilot to enhance customer engagement and analytics. Technically, the website demonstrates a mature digital infrastructure with responsive design, good SEO practices, and a robust technology stack centered around Magento and various JavaScript libraries. Hosting is managed via DomainControl DNS services, and the site enforces HTTPS, ensuring secure communications. Cookie consent mechanisms are implemented, reflecting awareness of GDPR compliance requirements, although explicit privacy and terms of service pages were not detected in the provided content. From a security perspective, the site shows good practices such as HTTPS usage and secure script loading, but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies or incident response contacts. No vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns were detected, indicating a stable security posture. The domain WHOIS data is consistent with an active and legitimate registration, though registrant details are minimal. Overall, dodenhof presents a professional, trustworthy, and secure online presence suitable for its retail business model. Strategic improvements could focus on enhancing privacy documentation, publishing security policies, and reinforcing security headers to further strengthen compliance and 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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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.

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

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

dodenhof operates as a large retail and e-commerce entity targeting general consumers interested in fashion and lifestyle products. Its market position as a leading shopping center in Northern Germany provides competitive advantages including a broad product range and strong brand recognition. The business model combines physical retail with online sales, supported by a sophisticated Magento-based platform. Revenue streams likely include direct product sales and possibly partnerships with brands featured on the site. The company maintains active social media channels and integrates marketing tools to drive customer acquisition and retention. Growth indicators include continuous updates to product offerings and marketing campaigns. The partnership ecosystem includes marketing and analytics providers such as Emarsys and Trustpilot, enhancing customer insights and trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS and use of security-related JavaScript modules. Cookie consent mechanisms indicate compliance with privacy regulations. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, as well as lack of published security policies or incident response contacts, represent gaps in security transparency and defense-in-depth. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. The site would benefit from formalizing its security posture documentation and implementing additional HTTP security headers to mitigate common web threats. Overall, the security culture appears adequate but could be enhanced to meet higher compliance standards such as ISO 27001 or NIST frameworks.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the website footer.
  2. Implement and verify HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Establish and publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and mobile optimization to improve user experience and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Magento e-commerce platform with extensive use of RequireJS, jQuery, and various Magento and third-party JavaScript modules. It integrates marketing and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager, Emarsys, and Trustpilot widgets. The site uses a custom theme with multiple CSS and JS assets optimized for desktop and mobile. Hosting is managed via DomainControl DNS services. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility. The technical implementation reflects a mature infrastructure but could benefit from modernization efforts such as improved security headers, enhanced accessibility, and streamlined script loading to reduce technical debt and improve resilience.
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.
