Handball-Store.ch is a specialized e-commerce retailer focused on handball sports equipment, including shoes, balls, clothing, and accessories. The website targets handball players, teams, and clubs primarily in German-speaking regions, offering a comprehensive product catalog with fast shipping options. The business operates in the retail sector within Switzerland, maintaining a consistent and professional online presence. Technically, the site is built on Magento (OpenMage), leveraging modern marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Google Ads, and Actito for marketing automation. The website is mobile-optimized with good navigation and content relevance. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and uses reCAPTCHA for bot protection, but lacks some security headers and explicit security policies. Privacy compliance is partially implemented with a consent mechanism but lacks visible privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the site is legitimate and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security documentation.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The company positions itself as a niche specialist in handball equipment retail, serving a focused market segment with a broad product range from multiple brands. Its business model is direct online sales with an emphasis on fast delivery and competitive pricing. The presence of a related domain (handball-store.de) suggests a partnership or sister site targeting the German market. The company likely generates revenue through product sales and possibly marketing partnerships. The website's structured navigation and extensive product categorization indicate a mature e-commerce operation with potential for growth in the European handball sports market.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and use of Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate automated abuse. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. There is no visible security policy or incident response contact information, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. The lack of a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file further indicates limited formal security communication. Privacy compliance is partially addressed through a consent mechanism, but the missing privacy and cookie policies represent compliance gaps under GDPR. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a small e-commerce site but requires improvements to meet best practices and regulatory expectations.
Recommendations
Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy accessible from the website footer.
Implement and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
Provide explicit contact information for security incidents and designate a data protection officer if applicable.
Add a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure page to facilitate responsible reporting.
Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to identify and remediate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built on Magento (OpenMage), a widely used e-commerce platform, indicating a solid technical foundation. It uses modern web fonts and preloads them for performance optimization. The integration of Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and Google Ads enables effective marketing and user behavior tracking. The site includes a consent management platform for GDPR compliance, although policy documents are missing. The HTML structure is well-organized with comprehensive navigation menus and search functionality. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility. The site is mobile-optimized, providing a good user experience across devices. Overall, the technical implementation supports the business goals but could benefit from enhanced security and compliance features.
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.
