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

Golf and co is a specialized e-commerce retailer focused on golf equipment and accessories, targeting primarily the Italian market with a multi-country European presence. The company operates under SPACEFOOT SAS, a French legal entity, providing customer service from France. The website offers a comprehensive catalog of golf products including clubs, balls, bags, carts, shoes, clothing, gloves, and accessories from well-known brands. The business model is retail e-commerce with secure payment options and customer-friendly return policies. Technically, the website is built on a Magento (OpenMage) platform, leveraging modern web technologies and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, and Actito, with a GDPR-compliant consent management platform in place.

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

6 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. 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"

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

Golf and co positions itself as a niche specialist in golf equipment retail, leveraging a multi-country e-commerce strategy to serve European customers. The company benefits from partnerships or sister sites in related sports retail sectors, enhancing its market reach. Its business model focuses on direct online sales with a strong emphasis on customer service and secure transactions. The presence of multiple well-known brands and a wide product range indicates a competitive offering. The company appears medium-sized with a consistent brand image and good trust signals such as secure payment badges and clear policies. The French legal entity operating an Italian domain suggests a cross-border business structure common in EU e-commerce.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, use of invisible Google reCAPTCHA on forms, and a consent management platform ensuring GDPR compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security headers like Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options is a gap that should be addressed to enhance protection against common web attacks. The WHOIS data anomaly is a concern but does not directly impact the website's operational security. Incident response and security policy pages are not found, indicating room for improvement in transparency and preparedness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security.
  3. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve transparency.
  4. Add a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and incident response procedures.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a Magento (OpenMage) e-commerce platform with a modern frontend stack including jQuery, Slick Carousel, and lazy loading for images. It integrates Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Google Ads for marketing and analytics, alongside Actito for marketing automation and AppConsent for GDPR compliance. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and preloaded fonts for performance. While performance is moderate, there is room for improvement in accessibility and security headers. The WHOIS data inconsistency suggests a need for domain registration review. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional e-commerce experience with standard industry tools.
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.
