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

The dpa-Shop website is a German-based e-commerce platform specializing in providing fresh digital content for web publishers, including news, sports live feeds, and web graphics. The site targets media companies and content distributors, offering subscription and pay-per-view models for digital content. The platform is built on WordPress with WooCommerce and WPML for multilingual support, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. The website is well-designed, mobile-optimized, and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and a cookie consent mechanism, but lacks visible security headers and explicit security policies. The absence of WHOIS data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, which impacts overall trustworthiness. Privacy compliance is partial, with cookie consent present but no clear privacy policy or terms of service detected. Contact information is not explicitly provided, limiting direct communication channels. Overall, the website is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security documentation.

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

  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 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 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. 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

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

dpa-Shop operates in the media sector, focusing on digital content distribution for web publishers. Its business model revolves around selling digital media products and subscriptions, targeting professional media outlets and publishers. The use of WooCommerce and multilingual support suggests a scalable e-commerce operation. The lack of visible company registration or contact details may indicate a smaller or niche operation or a need for improved corporate transparency. The platform's partnership ecosystem is not explicitly visible, and no related or subsidiary domains were identified. The site’s content and product offerings position it as a specialized provider in the German media content market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and a cookie consent mechanism implemented via OneTrust. However, there is no evidence of advanced security headers such as CSP, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options, which are recommended best practices. The absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests limited formal security governance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The missing WHOIS data and domain registration information reduce trust and raise potential legitimacy concerns. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be improved with better documentation and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve transparency and compliance.
  2. Add explicit security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Provide clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and customer trust.
  4. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible security reporting.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS registration details to ensure domain legitimacy and improve trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality and WPML for multilingual support. It uses common web technologies including jQuery and Vue.js for interactive elements. The site loads multiple minified CSS and JS assets, indicating optimization efforts. Cookie consent is managed by OneTrust, a recognized compliance tool. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. However, hosting provider details are not evident, and no advanced CDN or security services like Cloudflare were detected. The site would benefit from enhanced security headers and improved SEO metadata completeness.
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.
