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

HC Farver is a Danish online retailer specializing in affordable, high-quality paint products. The website targets consumers and professionals looking for cost-effective painting supplies with benefits such as free shipping over a certain order value and fast delivery. The business operates primarily as an e-commerce platform with a clear focus on retail paint sales. Technically, the website is built on the Shopware CMS platform and integrates various modern technologies including Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo for marketing automation, and Anyday.io for payment solutions. The site implements a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR, offering users granular control over cookie categories. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS, uses Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect forms, and employs cookie consent banners, but lacks visible security policy or incident response information. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification, and no direct contact information is found on the site, which slightly reduces business credibility. Overall, the website is professionally designed, technically sound, and privacy-conscious, but could improve transparency and trust by publishing more business and security information.

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

3 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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';…

  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

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

HC Farver positions itself as a discount online paint retailer in Denmark, focusing on delivering quality products at low prices. The business model is straightforward e-commerce retail, targeting both individual consumers and professionals. The company leverages partnerships with marketing and payment service providers such as Klaviyo and Anyday.io to enhance customer engagement and payment flexibility. The website's use of multiple Google services indicates a data-driven marketing approach. However, the lack of visible contact details and company registration information may hinder customer trust and limit B2B partnership opportunities. The company appears to be a small-sized entity with a focused market niche. Growth potential could be enhanced by improving transparency and expanding business information availability.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with mandatory HTTPS enforced and integration of Google reCAPTCHA v3 to mitigate automated abuse. The cookie consent implementation is detailed and GDPR-compliant, reflecting awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of explicit security headers in the visible content and lack of published security policies or incident response contacts represent gaps in transparency and best practices. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The site would benefit from publishing a security policy, incident response procedures, and a vulnerability disclosure program to enhance trust and preparedness. Regular audits of third-party scripts and continuous monitoring are recommended to maintain security integrity.

Recommendations

  1. Publish explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Add visible contact information including company email and phone numbers to improve business credibility and customer trust.
  3. Create and publish a security policy and incident response plan accessible to users and partners.
  4. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Shopware CMS platform, utilizing a modern tech stack including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Klaviyo marketing tools, and Anyday.io payment integration. The site loads multiple JavaScript modules for enhanced shopping experiences, checkout processes, and CMS extensions. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, and content delivery is supported by CDN services. Performance is moderate with deferred script loading and preconnect hints for external resources. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and viewport meta tags. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. SEO is well addressed with comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph, and Twitter card metadata. The technical infrastructure supports a professional e-commerce experience but would benefit from enhanced security headers and more transparent business and security documentation.
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.
