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

EHI Geprüfter Online-Shop operates as a certification provider specializing in e-commerce, offering seals, authentic customer reviews, and secure legal texts to promote safe and fair online shopping experiences. The website targets German online retailers and businesses seeking to enhance trust and compliance. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with the Divi theme, leveraging modern web technologies and privacy-conscious analytics via Matomo with disabled cookies. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and no evident vulnerabilities, though security headers and explicit privacy compliance measures are lacking. Overall, the site presents a professional and trustworthy front but would benefit from enhanced privacy disclosures and contact transparency.

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

7 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.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  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';…

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 holds a strong position in the German e-commerce certification market, providing essential trust signals to online shops. Its business model revolves around certification and quality assurance services, targeting medium-sized e-commerce businesses. The presence of social media channels and structured data indicates a mature digital presence. However, the lack of visible contact details and privacy policies may limit user trust and regulatory compliance. The company appears to maintain a focused partnership ecosystem, though no explicit partner domains were identified.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS and privacy-respecting analytics. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are published, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. The site does not implement cookie consent mechanisms, potentially impacting GDPR compliance. Overall, the security maturity is moderate with room for improvement in policy transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies prominently on the website.
  2. Implement a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and ePrivacy regulations.
  3. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security incident response channels.
  5. Consider publishing a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress CMS with the Divi theme, using jQuery and FontAwesome for UI components. Google Fonts and Matomo analytics are integrated, with Cloudflare providing DNS and likely CDN services. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly with proper meta tags and structured data. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and resource optimization. Accessibility is basic, suggesting opportunities for enhancement to meet WCAG standards. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from additional security hardening and privacy features.
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.
