Security report for footlocker.hk
Foot Locker, Inc. · Retail · United States
Medium risk. 4 critical or high findings in Security headers, GDPR outside view and 1 other check.
Foot Locker, Inc. is a globally recognized leader in the retail footwear and apparel industry, operating approximately 2,400 stores across multiple continents. The company’s website serves as a corporate and investor relations portal, providing comprehensive financial reports, proxy statements, and webcast event information. The site targets sneaker enthusiasts, investors, and retail consumers, emphasizing its portfolio of well-known brands such as Foot Locker, Kids Foot Locker, Champs Sports, WSS, and atmos. The business model focuses on retail sales through physical stores and licensed locations, maintaining a strong market position as a sneaker authority. Technically, the website is built on Adobe Experience Manager, leveraging Adobe Helix RUM and CQ Analytics for performance monitoring and user tracking. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices, with a professional design and clear navigation. However, some security best practices such as explicit security headers and cookie consent mechanisms are not evident. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain www.footlocker-inc.com raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy, although the website content and linked domains strongly align with the official Foot Locker brand. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data in its HTML content. Nonetheless, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests room for improvement in transparency and security maturity. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional but would benefit from enhanced security and privacy compliance features. The overall risk assessment is moderate with recommendations to improve domain registration transparency, implement security headers, establish cookie consent, and publish security-related policies to strengthen user trust and regulatory 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
4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
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';…
- High
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
- 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
- GDPR Art. 7
- ePrivacy Art. 5(3)
- NIST PT-4: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 PT-4: Consent
- High
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
- RFC 8996
- RFC 7568

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 notes
Notes
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.
