Koentopp Guitars · Other · N/a
Medium risk. 6 critical or high findings in Security headers, GDPR outside view and 1 other check.
Koentopp Guitars is a small artisanal business specializing in handcrafted guitars by luthier Dan Koentopp. The website serves as a showcase for their custom guitar offerings, testimonials, and blog content, targeting musicians and guitar enthusiasts seeking high-quality custom instruments. The business appears well-established with a domain age consistent with its founding year, positioning itself as a niche player in the custom guitar market. Technically, the website uses a basic but functional technology stack including HTML5, CSS3, jQuery 1.9.1, and Bootstrap for UI components like the carousel. Hosting is provided by GoDaddy. The site shows moderate performance and basic mobile optimization but lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features. No CMS is detected, suggesting a custom or static site build. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS but lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and HSTS. DNSSEC is not enabled, and no privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating compliance gaps with GDPR and other privacy regulations. Forms exist for newsletter subscription but no explicit security controls are visible. Contact information is clearly provided, enhancing trust. Overall, the website is functional and professional but could improve significantly in privacy compliance and security posture. Strategic improvements in these areas would reduce risk and enhance user trust.
Scanned
NIS2 Art. 21(2)

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

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.
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.
Risk levels
Leaked credentials and lookalike domains from OffSeq Breach. The counts are free; the detailed lists are paid add-ons.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
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.
