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

7 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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. 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

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

카카오스타일 targets a broad fashion-conscious audience in South Korea, leveraging mobile apps and integrated payment solutions to drive revenue. Its business model focuses on platform services connecting users and partners, supported by strategic marketing campaigns featuring celebrities. The company has shown consistent growth, evidenced by milestones such as 2,000 billion KRW in sales and multiple venture investments. Partnerships and dedicated portals for careers and partners indicate a mature ecosystem. The company’s transparent business registration and certifications further reinforce credibility.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and domain-level protections such as clientDeleteProhibited status, indicating a baseline security maturity. However, the absence of DNSSEC, security headers, and explicit incident response information suggests room for enhancement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of cookie consent mechanisms and published security policies may pose compliance risks, especially under GDPR or similar regulations. Strengthening these areas would improve the overall security posture and user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to secure DNS infrastructure against spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, HSTS) to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Publish a detailed security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency.
  4. Add a cookie policy and consent mechanism to comply with privacy regulations.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to prevent vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React/Next.js stack, ensuring server-side rendering and good SEO. Hosting on AWS DNS infrastructure provides reliability. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and delivers fast performance. No CMS was detected, indicating a custom or proprietary solution. The absence of analytics or tracking scripts in the HTML suggests minimal user tracking, aligning with privacy-conscious practices. Overall, the technical implementation supports a high-quality user experience with opportunities to enhance security and privacy 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.
