0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

Manuka Doctor is an established e-commerce retailer specializing in genuine New Zealand Manuka honey, skincare, and supplements. The website targets consumers interested in natural health and skincare products, operating primarily in the UK market. The business leverages Shopify as its platform, integrating multiple third-party services for analytics, marketing, and customer engagement, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and standard security headers likely in place, complemented by GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms. However, the absence of explicit security policies and incident response information suggests room for improvement in transparency. WHOIS data retrieval failed due to a query on the full hostname rather than the domain, but the website content and integrations support legitimacy. Overall, the site presents a professional, trustworthy online retail presence with good technical and privacy compliance.

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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 company operates in the retail sector focusing on health and skincare products, with a business model centered on direct-to-consumer e-commerce. It maintains a consistent brand presence and uses loyalty and review platforms to enhance customer trust and retention. The integration of affiliate marketing (Awin) and multiple analytics tools indicates a data-driven approach to customer acquisition and retention. The website's payment options cover major credit cards and digital wallets, supporting broad customer accessibility. The lack of publicly available company registration or VAT information on the site limits deeper business intelligence. The company appears to be medium-sized with a focused product niche and a strong UK market presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enforced and use of reputable third-party security and analytics services. Cookie consent is implemented with opt-in/opt-out capabilities, supporting GDPR compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism reduces transparency and preparedness perception. Recommendations include publishing these policies and implementing a security.txt file. Regular audits of third-party scripts and consideration of DNSSEC would further enhance security. Overall, the site is secure but could improve in policy transparency and incident readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and customer trust.
  2. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and responsible reporting.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to meet compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and integrations to mitigate potential security risks.
  5. Consider enabling DNSSEC to strengthen domain name system security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Shopify, leveraging its CDN and e-commerce capabilities. It uses modern JavaScript libraries and integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Hotjar, Klaviyo, Yotpo, and LoyaltyLion. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and includes SEO best practices like meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, typical for Shopify-hosted stores with multiple third-party scripts. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The technical stack is modern and well-integrated, supporting a professional e-commerce experience with room for optimization in performance and accessibility.
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.
