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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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. 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 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

The business operates in the e-commerce sector, focusing on alcoholic beverage retail with a specialty in natural wine spritzers. Its market positioning emphasizes artisanal quality and health-conscious attributes, differentiating from mass-market hard seltzers. The direct-to-consumer model is supported by subscription options and a strong social media presence on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. The parent company relationship with Scheid Family Wines suggests established industry backing. Marketing efforts utilize advanced tools for customer engagement and retargeting. The company appears to be small-sized but well-positioned for growth within its niche.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security posture with HTTPS enabled using TLS 1.3 and 1.2, OCSP stapling, and no detected vulnerable cipher suites. Security headers such as X-Frame-Options, Content-Security-Policy, and Strict-Transport-Security are implemented, though HSTS could be enhanced with includeSubDomains and preload flags. No exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities were detected. The site uses secure cookies with appropriate SameSite attributes. However, there is no explicit security policy or incident response information publicly available, and no security.txt file was found. Overall, the site is secure but could improve transparency and incident readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Enable HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload to strengthen HTTPS enforcement.
  2. Achieve certificate transparency compliance to improve SSL trust.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Regularly review third-party scripts and marketing integrations for security and privacy compliance.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on Shopify with Cloudflare CDN and edge servers, ensuring fast global delivery and performance. The tech stack includes modern JavaScript modules, Alpine.js for interactivity, and Splide.js for carousels. Marketing and analytics integrations include Klaviyo, Brevo, Google Analytics, and Facebook Pixel. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and basic accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph data, and structured JSON-LD. Performance is rated fast with no major technical debt observed. The site benefits from Shopify's robust infrastructure but should continue to monitor third-party scripts for potential risks.
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.
