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

Fittingbox is a well-established French technology company specializing in augmented reality and 3D digital solutions for the eyewear industry. Founded in 2006, it holds a leading market position by offering innovative services such as Virtual Try-On technology, a 3D viewer, precise PD measurement tools, and the world's largest 3D frame database. Their business model focuses on B2B services targeting eyewear professionals and e-commerce platforms, enhancing customer experience and boosting sales. The website reflects a mature digital presence with comprehensive content, strong branding, and client testimonials that reinforce trust and credibility. Technically, the website is built on the HubSpot CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries like jQuery, Splide.js, and Slick Carousel for interactive features. It integrates Google Analytics 4, Facebook Pixel, and HubSpot tracking for marketing and analytics purposes. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and SEO-friendly, hosted on AWS infrastructure with a secure HTTPS configuration. The domain is long-standing and registered with Gandi SAS, showing consistent ownership and no privacy protection, which aligns with the company's transparency. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and employs domain transfer protection. However, it lacks explicit DNSSEC and some recommended security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options. Privacy compliance is strong, with clear privacy and cookie policies and an active consent mechanism. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact is noted as an area for improvement. Overall, Fittingbox demonstrates a robust digital and business maturity with a secure and professional online presence. The company is well-positioned in its niche market with a trustworthy reputation. Strategic recommendations include enhancing DNS security, publishing security policies, and implementing additional security headers to further strengthen their security posture.

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

4 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  3. 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
  4. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Potential Subdomain Takeover

      Subdomain api.fittingbox.com points to unregistered service rest-api-gateway-3-0-2-1880008917.eu-west-1.elb.amazonaws.com

      What to do: Remove or fix CNAME record to prevent subdomain takeover

      • WSTG-CONF-10
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory

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

Fittingbox operates as a specialized technology provider in the eyewear sector, leveraging augmented reality and 3D modeling to serve eyewear retailers and e-commerce businesses globally. Their competitive advantage lies in their patented Virtual Try-On technology and the extensive 3D frame database, which supports over 195,000 references and 1,200 brands. The company targets eyewear professionals seeking to digitize their product offerings and improve customer engagement online and in-store. Revenue streams likely include software licensing, digital asset production, and integration services. The presence of major eyewear brand logos and testimonials indicates strong industry partnerships and market acceptance. The company’s growth is supported by continuous innovation and a comprehensive digital marketing strategy.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption and domain transfer lock status, reducing risks of domain hijacking. The cookie consent banner and privacy policy demonstrate compliance with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of DNSSEC and some key HTTP security headers suggests room for improvement in defense-in-depth strategies. No signs of malware, phishing, or exposed credentials were found. The use of reputable third-party analytics and marketing tools is balanced with privacy controls. Lack of a public security policy or incident response contact may limit transparency in security incident handling. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by adopting additional security best practices and publishing formal security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the fittingbox.com domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and verify HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy page and provide incident response contact information to enhance transparency and trust.
  4. Consider creating and hosting a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and responsible reporting.
  5. Regularly audit third-party libraries and scripts to ensure no vulnerable versions are in use and maintain secure dependencies.

Notes

The website is built on the HubSpot CMS platform, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery 3.6.0, Splide.js for carousels, and Slick Carousel for testimonials.

Hosting is on AWS infrastructure, indicated by AWS DNS servers. Performance is moderate with optimized images and lazy loading. SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph, Twitter cards, and JSON-LD structured data. Accessibility features are present but could be further enhanced with ARIA roles and landmarks. Overall, the technical implementation is modern and well-maintained, supporting a professional user experience.
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.
