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

2 findings 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 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

  2. 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

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

eBay's motorcycle-recycle1 store benefits from the parent company's established brand and infrastructure. The store operates within the automotive parts niche, targeting a specific segment of motorcycle enthusiasts and repair professionals. Revenue streams likely include sales commissions and listing fees. The partnership with PayPal enhances payment processing reliability. The store's presence on eBay's platform provides competitive advantages such as trust signals, buyer protection, and a large customer base. Growth indicators include eBay's continuous platform enhancements and market penetration in the UK. Strategic partnerships and compliance with privacy regulations support sustainable operations.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and no visible vulnerabilities in the HTML content. Privacy and cookie policies are detailed and GDPR compliant, indicating strong data protection practices. However, explicit security or incident response policies are not directly presented on the store page, which is typical for marketplace sub-stores. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt is noted but not critical given the platform context. Overall, the security measures align with industry best practices for e-commerce platforms.

Recommendations

  1. Enhance accessibility compliance to improve inclusivity and meet legal standards.
  2. Publish or link to explicit security and incident response policies to increase transparency.
  3. Implement or publicize a vulnerability disclosure program to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking technologies for security and privacy compliance.
  5. Maintain up-to-date SSL/TLS configurations and monitor for emerging threats.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern web technologies including React and CSS variables, indicating a contemporary front-end architecture. The platform is hosted on eBay's infrastructure, likely leveraging CDNs for performance optimization. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design elements and basic accessibility features. SEO practices are evident through meta tags and structured data usage. Performance is moderate, typical for a complex marketplace platform. Opportunities exist to enhance accessibility and streamline third-party integrations to reduce technical debt and improve load times.
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.
