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

2 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 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. 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

Esselunga operates in the retail sector with a strong market position in Italy. This website serves as a recruitment and career portal, supporting the company's talent acquisition efforts. The business model focuses on attracting and managing job applicants through a dedicated digital platform integrated with SAP SuccessFactors. The target audience includes students, professionals, and job seekers interested in retail and related functions. The site reflects a large enterprise with consistent branding and a clear focus on career services. No direct contact details or certifications are displayed, but the site leverages trusted third-party platforms for recruitment and analytics.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and anti-clickjacking scripts in place. Cookie consent mechanisms include accessibility considerations and focus traps, indicating attention to privacy and security compliance. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which is a recommended best practice for domain security. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the provided content. The absence of explicit security policies or incident response contacts limits transparency. Overall, the site is secure for typical user interactions but could improve by adopting additional security headers and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement Content-Security-Policy and other security headers to mitigate XSS and related attacks.
  3. Publish clear security and incident response policies accessible to users.
  4. Add explicit contact information for security incidents and general inquiries.
  5. Regularly update and audit third-party libraries and dependencies.

Technical notes

Notes

The site is built on a robust technology stack including jQuery, Bootstrap 3.4.1, FontAwesome, and SAP SuccessFactors Career Site Builder platform. It integrates Google Tag Manager and YouTube widgets for analytics and media content. The site is mobile responsive with good accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA roles. Performance is moderate with some room for optimization. The use of inline scripts and CSS is controlled, and the site avoids deprecated technologies. Hosting provider details are not explicit. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly recruitment 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.
