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

Foot-store.at is an Austrian-based e-commerce retailer specializing in football-related products including shoes, apparel, and equipment. The website targets football players and fans, offering a wide range of branded products with a focus on fast delivery and competitive pricing. The business operates in the retail sector with a medium-sized market presence in Europe. Technically, the site is built on Magento (OpenMage variant) and integrates modern marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, and reCAPTCHA for security. The website demonstrates good mobile optimization and user experience with clear navigation and professional design. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and some security best practices in place, though it lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is basic, with a cookie consent mechanism present but no clear privacy or terms of service pages. WHOIS data aligns with the business claims, showing consistent registrant information and domain age appropriate for the business. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professional but would benefit from enhanced privacy disclosures and security policies to improve 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

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

  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
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 23 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates

  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 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 Content-Security-Policy header

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

Foot-store.at occupies a niche in the football retail market, leveraging a broad catalog of football shoes, apparel, and accessories from major brands like Nike, adidas, Puma, and others. The business model is direct online retail with a focus on European customers, particularly Austria and France. The site emphasizes fast shipping and customer service, including localized support in France. The company uses advanced marketing tools and ad networks to drive traffic and conversions. However, the absence of visible contact details and formal policies may impact customer confidence. The platform's use of Magento suggests a scalable infrastructure capable of supporting growth. Strategic partnerships with major brands and marketing platforms indicate a mature marketing ecosystem. Growth opportunities include expanding transparency in privacy and security practices and enhancing direct customer engagement channels.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and integrates Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate automated abuse. It uses Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking, with a consent management platform indicating some GDPR compliance efforts. However, the site lacks explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options, which are recommended to harden against common web attacks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The absence of published security policies and incident response contacts limits transparency and preparedness perception. Overall, the security posture is moderate but can be significantly improved by implementing additional HTTP security headers, publishing security and privacy policies, and providing clear incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages prominently accessible on the website.
  2. Implement and configure HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Provide clear and verified contact information including company email addresses and phone numbers for customer and security inquiries.
  4. Enhance GDPR compliance disclosures with detailed cookie and data processing information.
  5. Establish and publish an incident response policy with dedicated security contact channels to improve trust and readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Magento (OpenMage), a widely used e-commerce platform, indicating a robust and scalable infrastructure. It uses modern web fonts, responsive design, and slick slider for UI components, ensuring good user experience across devices. Integration with Google services (Analytics, Tag Manager, Ads) and Actito marketing automation shows a mature digital marketing setup. Performance is moderate with preloaded fonts and asynchronous script loading. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with more ARIA attributes and semantic HTML. SEO is supported by meta tags and structured navigation. No critical technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected, but security header implementation is lacking. Hosting provider details are not explicit in the HTML content. Overall, the technical implementation supports business goals but has room for security and accessibility enhancements.
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.
