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

9 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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

GrowNow holds a strong market position in Poland and the broader European e-commerce sector, leveraging its affiliation with Serviceplan and Salestube. Its business model focuses on operational, consulting, and hybrid service delivery for brands aiming to expand on multiple marketplaces and their own e-commerce platforms. The company emphasizes integrated marketing, technology, and sales management services, supported by a team of over 400 experts. The presence of multiple partner domains and marketing tools indicates a robust partnership ecosystem and a data-driven approach to client growth. The company targets medium-sized to large brands seeking comprehensive marketplace solutions.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS, use of Google reCAPTCHA v3 on contact forms, and cookie consent mechanisms. No exposed sensitive data or obvious vulnerabilities were detected in the HTML content. However, the site lacks some recommended HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options, which could enhance protection against clickjacking and MIME sniffing attacks. The use of an older jQuery version (1.12.4) may pose minor risks and should be updated. There is no publicly available security policy or incident response contact information, which is a gap in transparency and readiness. Overall, the security posture is solid but can be improved with additional headers and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options HTTP headers to strengthen security.
  2. Update jQuery and other JavaScript libraries to their latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy page and provide clear incident response contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails).
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.
  5. Continue maintaining comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with transparent consent mechanisms.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.1 with a modern tech stack including Contact Form 7, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, HubSpot, LinkedIn Insight, and reCAPTCHA v3. It uses lazy loading for images (LazySizes), AOS for animations, and Slick Slider for carousels. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO meta tags including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in script optimization and caching. The site lacks explicit hosting provider information but appears professionally maintained. Technical debt is low, though updating legacy libraries like jQuery is advisable. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable e-commerce service platform.
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.
