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. 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

  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 29 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography

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

The company leverages a multi-channel approach combining physical locations and an online shop to serve a diverse customer base. Their business model focuses on retail sales, storage solutions, and value-added services like engraving and custom minting. The presence of trust indicators such as certifications and professional branding supports a strong market reputation. The use of multiple analytics and marketing tools suggests active customer engagement and growth orientation. However, the absence of explicit privacy and terms of service pages may be a gap in compliance and customer transparency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enforcement, use of nonce attributes in scripts, and consent-based analytics tracking. Security headers are likely implemented, and no exposed sensitive data or vulnerabilities were detected in the provided content. However, the lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security governance. The site would benefit from adding vulnerability disclosure mechanisms and clearer privacy compliance documentation to enhance trust and regulatory adherence.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  3. Provide explicit incident response contact information to improve security transparency and readiness.
  4. Enhance cookie consent mechanisms with granular options and clear explanations to improve GDPR compliance.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and tracking tools to mitigate potential security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Shopware CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery and custom Shopware scripts. Analytics are managed via Matomo and Google Analytics with consent mode enabled, complemented by TikTok Pixel for marketing. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility features and SEO meta tags. Hosting appears to be managed via domaincontrol.com nameservers, typical for commercial sites. Performance is moderate, with deferred script loading and responsive design. Opportunities exist to improve technical documentation and compliance-related content.
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.
