75/100

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

Native is a direct-to-consumer e-commerce brand specializing in clean, aluminum and paraben-free deodorants, hair care, and body care products. The company positions itself as a vegan and cruelty-free brand with a strong customer base evidenced by over 150,000 five-star reviews. The website is built on the Shopify platform using the Cornerstone theme, integrating multiple marketing and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo, Postscript, and Bazaarvoice. The technical infrastructure is modern, performant, and mobile-optimized, providing a good user experience. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and standard security headers present, though the site lacks a published security policy and incident response information. Privacy compliance is well addressed with a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanisms. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain www.nativecos.com suggests privacy protection or an unregistered domain, which slightly impacts trust but is common for Shopify stores using custom domains. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and well-positioned in the natural personal care market.

Both readouts depend on the site's pages, which could not be loaded in this scan.

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • GDPR outside view: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Native operates in the competitive natural personal care market with a focus on clean ingredients and ethical practices. Their business model leverages subscription services and build-your-pack options to increase customer lifetime value. The company uses affiliate partnerships with Amazon in multiple EU countries to expand market reach. Marketing efforts are supported by advanced analytics and targeted SMS/email campaigns. The lack of direct contact emails or phone numbers on the site suggests a focus on digital-first customer service. The brand maintains consistent and professional branding across the site, reinforcing trust and customer loyalty.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers implemented. Consent management is handled via OneTrust, indicating GDPR awareness. However, the absence of a public security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents gaps in transparency and preparedness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of multiple third-party scripts necessitates ongoing security audits to mitigate supply chain risks. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved with published policies and incident response information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Audit and monitor third-party scripts regularly to prevent supply chain vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance contact information with verified company emails and phone numbers to improve customer trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Shopify using the Cornerstone theme, leveraging a modern tech stack including Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo, Postscript, Recharge, and Bazaarvoice. The site is hosted on Shopify's CDN, ensuring fast load times and global availability. Mobile optimization is excellent, and accessibility features are present. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data. The site uses asynchronous loading for scripts to improve performance. No technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected. The main technical risk lies in the reliance on multiple third-party scripts which require continuous security monitoring.
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.
