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

FALTERSHOP is a professional Austrian e-commerce platform specializing in the sale of books, DVDs, CDs, and FALTER-related products and subscriptions. The website targets German-speaking customers in Austria, offering a large catalog of over 1.5 million media items with free delivery for orders above €35. The business model focuses on retail and subscription services, positioning itself as a niche market leader for FALTER products and media retail in Austria. The site demonstrates consistent branding and good content quality, enhancing customer trust. Technically, the website is built on Magento with modern frontend technologies including ES6 JavaScript, Font Awesome, and Owl Carousel. Hosting appears to leverage AWS S3 for static content delivery. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO and basic accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in accessibility compliance. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced using RSA 4096 bit encryption and a cookie consent mechanism in place. However, explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not published, and some security headers are not explicitly confirmed. No vulnerabilities or suspicious content were detected. Privacy compliance is partial, with cookie policies present but no clear privacy or terms of service pages found. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professionally managed, with a solid business presence and technical foundation. Strategic improvements in privacy transparency, security policy publication, and accessibility would further enhance compliance and user trust.

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

FALTERSHOP operates in the Austrian retail sector, focusing on media products and subscriptions tied to the FALTER brand. Its competitive advantage lies in exclusive access to FALTER products and a vast catalog of books and media. The business model is e-commerce retail with subscription offerings, targeting consumers interested in literature, music, and film. Revenue streams include direct sales and subscription fees. The company maintains partnerships with related domains for subscriptions and customer account management. Growth indicators include a large product catalog and active promotion of topical and award-related book lists. The company appears well-established with consistent branding and a clear market niche.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS using strong encryption and a cookie consent mechanism indicating GDPR awareness. Security best practices such as no personal data sharing with third parties and use of secure forms are observed. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, and security.txt file represents compliance gaps. Security headers are partially confirmed but should be audited for completeness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not visible, suggesting room for improvement in transparency and preparedness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages prominently linked on the website.
  2. Implement and publish a formal security policy including incident response contact information.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve transparency.
  4. Conduct a security headers audit to ensure all recommended headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, etc.) are present and properly configured.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Magento, leveraging modern frontend technologies such as ES6 JavaScript modules, Font Awesome, Animate.css, and Owl Carousel for UI components. Static assets are served via AWS S3, indicating a scalable hosting infrastructure. The site includes privacy SDKs and cookie consent scripts, showing attention to privacy compliance. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO meta tags. Accessibility is basic and could be improved. The technical stack is modern but would benefit from ongoing updates and audits to maintain security and performance standards.
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.
