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

NABU-Shop is an e-commerce website operated by NABU, a prominent German non-profit organization dedicated to nature conservation. The website offers a variety of products related to nature protection, including bird food, nesting aids, books, and merchandise. The platform targets nature enthusiasts and supporters of environmental causes, providing them with useful products to support conservation efforts. The site is well-branded, consistent with NABU's mission, and serves as a retail channel to complement the organization's activities. Technically, the website is built on the Magento e-commerce platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries and extensions such as RequireJS, jQuery, and Amasty modules. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking and performance monitoring, alongside Cookiebot for GDPR-compliant cookie consent management. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices, although some accessibility features could be enhanced. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS and employs secure form handling with Magento's CSRF protections. Cookie consent mechanisms are in place, and no exposed sensitive data or vulnerabilities were detected in the provided content. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options were not visible and should be verified. The WHOIS data shows no privacy protection but lacks detailed registrant information, which is typical for domains hosted on generic DNS providers. Overall, the domain appears legitimate and consistent with the organization's profile. The overall risk assessment is low, with the website presenting a professional, secure, and privacy-compliant presence. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, improving accessibility, and publishing a dedicated security policy and incident response contacts to further strengthen trust and 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

3 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 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. 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

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

NABU-Shop operates within the retail and non-profit sectors, leveraging the strong brand of NABU to market nature conservation products. The business model focuses on e-commerce sales of specialized products such as bird feeders, food, and educational materials. The target market includes environmentally conscious consumers and NABU supporters. The website's product catalog and navigation structure indicate a mature digital presence with clear segmentation of product categories. Partnerships are evident through related subdomains. The platform supports NABU's mission by generating revenue through product sales, likely reinvested into conservation projects. The site’s content and structure suggest a medium-sized operation with a focus on quality and user experience.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with enforced HTTPS and secure form submissions using Magento's form keys. Cookie consent is managed via Cookiebot, ensuring GDPR compliance. No signs of malware, phishing, or exposed credentials were found. However, the absence of explicit security headers in the provided data suggests room for improvement. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics and YouTube embeds is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, which could be a gap in transparency. Overall, the site is secure but would benefit from enhanced header policies and published security documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Enhance website accessibility features to meet WCAG standards for broader user inclusivity.
  4. Regularly audit and update all third-party libraries and Magento extensions to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Maintain transparent data retention policies and communicate them clearly to users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Magento, a robust e-commerce platform, enhanced with RequireJS for modular JavaScript loading and Amasty extensions for added functionality. It uses Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for analytics and tracking, and Cookiebot for cookie consent management. The site loads multiple CSS and JS resources asynchronously, indicating a modern approach to performance optimization. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design elements and mobile-specific assets. However, some accessibility features appear basic and could be improved. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified, but DNS servers indicate use of a generic hosting DNS provider. Performance is moderate, with potential for further optimization. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid and supports the business needs effectively.
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.
