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

FactFinder operates in the eCommerce technology sector, targeting both B2B and B2C online retailers. Its competitive advantage lies in proprietary AI algorithms refined over two decades, enabling superior product discovery, personalization, and merchandising capabilities. The business model is subscription-based SaaS, supported by a strong marketing ecosystem including case studies, testimonials, and interactive demos. Partnerships with platforms like Loop54 and comprehensive documentation enhance customer engagement and integration ease. The company is medium-sized, headquartered in Germany, and part of Omikron Data Quality GmbH. Growth indicators include multiple awards and a diverse client portfolio across industries such as fashion, electronics, and food retail.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and anti-clickjacking measures implemented. Consent management is robust, reflecting GDPR compliance, and form inputs include domain validation to prevent disposable email usage. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and security.txt files indicates room for improvement in transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Security headers beyond basic measures are not evident, suggesting potential enhancements. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from formalized policies and disclosures to strengthen trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and compliance.
  2. Add an incident response contact email (e.g., security@ or abuse@) to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  3. Implement and publish a security.txt file to standardize vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Continue monitoring and updating third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack including jQuery, GSAP for animations, and the Foundation 5 framework for responsive design. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking, alongside consent management tools to comply with privacy regulations. The CMS appears to be Redaxo, inferred from form and URL patterns. Performance is optimized with asynchronous script loading and preconnect/dns-prefetch hints for external resources. Mobile optimization and accessibility are well addressed. Hosting details are not explicitly disclosed. Technical risks are minimal, with no outdated or vulnerable libraries detected. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and formalize security documentation.
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.
