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

Fan Avenue is a French e-commerce retailer specializing in merchandising and derivative products related to music, cinema, TV series, and sports. Established since 2000, the company targets fans and collectors seeking licensed merchandise. The website is built on the PrestaShop platform, hosted by OVH sas, and integrates modern web technologies including Google Fonts, Google Maps API, and Google Tag Manager for analytics. The site is well structured with clear navigation and consistent branding, supporting a good user experience primarily for French-speaking audiences. From a technical perspective, the website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and domain status protections to prevent unauthorized domain transfers or deletions. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and several recommended HTTP security headers are missing, which could be improved to enhance security posture. Privacy compliance is basic, with a privacy policy present but lacking explicit GDPR compliance details and no cookie consent mechanism detected. Security-wise, the site shows moderate maturity with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure policy or security contact channels indicates room for improvement in incident response readiness. Overall, the website is functional, professional, and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security practices to meet higher compliance standards. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, implementing comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms, adding security headers, and establishing clear incident response contacts to strengthen trust and compliance.

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

11 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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

Fan Avenue operates in a niche e-commerce market focused on licensed merchandising for entertainment and sports sectors. Its long domain age and consistent branding suggest a stable market presence. The business model revolves around online retail sales targeting fans and collectors, leveraging partnerships with entertainment franchises. The company maintains active social media channels to engage its audience and drive traffic. While the site lacks explicit business registration details, the domain registration data and hosting provider are consistent with legitimate operations. Growth potential exists through expanding product lines and improving compliance to attract privacy-conscious customers.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enforced and domain status protections in place. However, the lack of DNSSEC and missing security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options present potential risks. No evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries was found. Privacy compliance is limited, with no cookie consent mechanism and minimal GDPR indicators. The absence of a security policy or incident response contacts reduces preparedness for security incidents. Enhancing these areas would improve resilience and regulatory compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  2. Implement a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR and ePrivacy regulations.
  3. Add HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Publish a detailed privacy policy with explicit GDPR compliance statements and data retention information.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and provide security contact channels to improve incident response readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the PrestaShop CMS platform, utilizing common web technologies such as Google Fonts, FontAwesome, and Google Tag Manager for analytics. Hosting is provided by OVH sas, a reputable provider. The site loads with moderate performance and is mobile optimized with good accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format. However, there is an opportunity to improve technical security by enabling DNSSEC and adding missing security headers. The site uses standard e-commerce forms but lacks visible advanced security controls such as CAPTCHA or multi-factor authentication prompts.
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.
