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.

Priority findings

6 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 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

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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

Ewalds occupies a solid position in the Slovak retail and wholesale home decor market, leveraging a long operational history and a large product inventory. Their competitive advantage includes a physical showroom, free shipping incentives, and a focus on handcrafted and seasonal decorations. The business targets both end consumers and wholesale clients, indicating diversified revenue streams. The integration of advanced marketing and analytics tools suggests a data-driven approach to customer engagement and sales optimization. The company maintains active social media channels on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and YouTube, supporting brand visibility and customer interaction. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified, indicating an independent operation. The website content and structure reflect a consistent brand image and professional communication.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced site-wide and CSRF tokens implemented. Cookie consent is managed via CookieYes with granular user controls, supporting GDPR compliance. The use of third-party analytics and marketing scripts is controlled through consent mechanisms, reducing privacy risks. However, explicit HTTP security headers such as HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and Content-Security-Policy were not confirmed in the HTML content and should be verified and implemented if missing. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The absence of a public security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security governance. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be enhanced with additional headers and published policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers including HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and Content-Security-Policy to strengthen protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance website accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

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.
