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

Erewhon operates as an organic grocer and cafe, targeting health-conscious consumers seeking organic and natural food products. The website reflects a retail business model with a focus on organic groceries and cafe services. The company appears to be established since 1995, indicating a mature presence in the market. The website uses modern web technologies including React and Next.js, integrates Google Maps API for location services, Stripe for payments, and Forter for fraud prevention. Accessibility is addressed through the AccessiBe widget, enhancing usability for users with disabilities. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced and fraud prevention scripts in place; however, there is room for improvement in security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is weak due to the absence of visible privacy and cookie policies or consent mechanisms. No contact information or business certifications are explicitly provided on the site, which may impact user trust. Overall, the website is professional and functional but would benefit from enhanced transparency and compliance 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

9 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 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

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

Erewhon positions itself in the organic retail sector, serving a niche market of organic product consumers. The business model combines retail grocery sales with cafe services, likely generating revenue from both product sales and food service. The website's technical infrastructure leverages modern JavaScript frameworks and third-party services for payments and fraud prevention, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. The absence of explicit contact details and compliance documentation suggests potential gaps in customer engagement and regulatory adherence. The company’s long domain age supports its legitimacy and market presence. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries from the provided data. Marketing efforts include Facebook Pixel and Google Analytics for user tracking and retargeting. Strategic focus on improving privacy compliance and publishing clear business and security policies could enhance credibility and customer trust.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS, uses reputable third-party services for payment processing (Stripe) and fraud prevention (Forter), and includes tracking pixels for analytics and marketing. However, no security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. There is no published security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file further reduces the security maturity level. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the provided content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended headers, publishing security policies, and establishing clear incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and configure essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  4. Add clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer support and security incident reporting.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Next.js and React, indicating a modern and scalable front-end framework. Integration with Google Maps API and Stripe suggests a focus on location services and secure payment processing. The use of Forter indicates proactive fraud prevention measures. Accessibility is enhanced via the AccessiBe widget, showing attention to inclusive design. Performance appears moderate with deferred script loading and preconnect hints. SEO is basic with canonical tags and Open Graph metadata present but minimal descriptive content. No CMS was detected, implying a custom or headless architecture. Hosting provider details are limited to the domain registrar (GoDaddy). The technical stack is modern but could benefit from additional SEO and security enhancements.
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.
