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.

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

JTL-Software GmbH operates in the e-commerce sector, focusing on software solutions that streamline online retail operations. Their competitive advantage lies in offering an integrated suite of products that cover ERP, shop systems, warehouse management, and marketplace connectivity, enabling merchants to manage multichannel sales efficiently. Revenue streams likely include software licenses, cloud hosting, extensions, and support services. The target customers are online merchants ranging from startups to large enterprises in the DACH region. The company fosters a strong partner ecosystem with over 300 specialized partners and multiple subsidiaries providing complementary services. Growth indicators include a large user base, numerous awards, and active community engagement. Strategic partnerships with payment providers and marketplaces enhance their market reach and product value.

Security posture

JTL-Software GmbH exhibits a mature security posture with adherence to key best practices such as valid SSL/TLS certificates supporting modern protocols (TLS 1.3 and 1.2) and absence of major vulnerabilities like Heartbleed or FREAK. However, the lack of DNSSEC, HSTS, and CAA records indicates areas for improvement in DNS and certificate security. The company maintains GDPR compliance with comprehensive privacy and cookie policies and employs a detailed consent management platform covering multiple third-party tracking and marketing services. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies are not explicitly found, suggesting potential gaps in transparency and readiness. The presence of a designated data protection officer with contact information reflects a commitment to data protection governance. Overall, the security culture appears robust but could benefit from enhanced DNS security and formal vulnerability disclosure mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement DNSSEC to secure DNS queries and prevent spoofing attacks.
  2. Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) with includeSubDomains and preload to enforce HTTPS.
  3. Add CAA DNS records to restrict which certificate authorities can issue certificates for the domain.
  4. Enable OCSP stapling on the web server to improve SSL certificate revocation checking performance and security.
  5. Publish a security.txt file and a clear vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and facilitate responsible reporting.
Technical notes

Notes

The website infrastructure is based on WordPress CMS with Bootstrap framework and jQuery library, ensuring responsive and modern UI/UX. It uses Bitrix24 CRM forms for lead capture and integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Matomo, Microsoft Clarity, Facebook Pixel, and LinkedIn Insight Tag. Hosting is provided by Hetzner with DNS managed by first-ns.de and second-ns.de/com. Performance metrics indicate moderate load times with optimized resource usage. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and SEO, leveraging Yoast SEO Premium plugin and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine visibility. Technical risks include missing DNSSEC and HSTS, which could expose the site to DNS spoofing and downgrade attacks. Overall, the technical stack is modern and robust but could be further hardened for security.
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.
