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

  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

K-Edge USA holds a strong market position within the niche of cycling accessories, particularly bicycle computer mounts. Their business model is direct-to-consumer e-commerce via Shopify, supported by integrations for customer reviews and email marketing. The company benefits from a loyal customer base of professional cyclists and enthusiasts, which is reinforced by trust signals such as verified reviews and consistent branding. The lack of publicly available contact emails or phone numbers suggests a preference for contact via web forms, typical for e-commerce stores. The domain age and registration details support legitimacy. The company appears focused on product quality and customer experience, with potential growth through enhanced security transparency and expanded contact options.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enforced and no visible exposure of sensitive data. Use of security analytics tools like TriplePixel indicates proactive monitoring. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that should be addressed. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response information are published, which limits transparency in security management. Cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policies are in place, supporting GDPR compliance. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be improved by publishing security policies, implementing additional HTTP headers, and providing clear incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and incident response procedures.
  3. Create and maintain a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance contact information availability by adding verified company emails and phone numbers for support and security.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and marketing tools to ensure no vulnerable libraries are included.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Shopify, utilizing Liquid templates and modern JavaScript libraries. It integrates multiple third-party services for marketing, analytics, and customer reviews, including Klaviyo, Judge.me, and TriplePixel. Hosting is supported by GoDaddy domain registration and Cloudflare DNS services. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). The site uses asynchronous script loading and preconnect/dns-prefetch hints to optimize resource loading. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts which require ongoing security monitoring. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust and suitable for a small to medium e-commerce business.
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.
