Security score

63/100

Risk levelMedium

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

Fielmann is a well-established European retail company specializing in eyewear and optical services, operating multiple localized websites for different countries and languages. The website is professionally designed using TYPO3 CMS and modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Moment.js, with Google Tag Manager implemented for analytics and marketing purposes. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices, although accessibility features could be improved. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS presumably enabled, but lacks visible security headers and explicit security policies. Privacy compliance is supported by a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism, though a dedicated cookie policy page is absent. Overall, the domain appears legitimate despite WHOIS privacy protection, consistent with a large retail brand's operational practices.

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

    • 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

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. 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';…

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

Fielmann holds a strong market position in the European eyewear retail sector, targeting consumers across multiple countries with localized content and services. The business model focuses on retail sales and optical services, supported by a network of partner sites in various countries. The company leverages digital marketing tools and analytics to optimize user engagement. The absence of direct contact information on the landing page suggests a centralized approach to customer service, likely handled on country-specific sites. The group website linkage reinforces corporate transparency and brand cohesion. Growth potential is supported by multi-country presence and consistent branding.

Security posture

The website shows a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS usage and Google Tag Manager integration. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security score. No forms collecting personal data are present on the landing page, minimizing immediate risk exposure. Privacy compliance is evident through a detailed privacy policy and cookie consent script, but the absence of a dedicated cookie policy page and incident response contacts indicates room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not publicly visible.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated cookie policy page and ensure clear, user-friendly cookie consent mechanisms to improve privacy compliance and user trust.
  3. Add explicit contact information for security incidents and data protection officer details to strengthen incident response and GDPR compliance.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerable components are used and maintain up-to-date software versions.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on TYPO3 CMS, a robust enterprise content management system, and uses popular JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Moment.js. Google Tag Manager is deployed for analytics and marketing tracking. The site is mobile optimized with responsive images and viewport settings. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous script loading improving page load times. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured content. However, no advanced accessibility features or ARIA roles were detected. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and accessibility improvements.
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.
