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

The website represents the official Nintendo distributor in Saudi Arabia, operated by AIC. It provides product sales, support services, and repair options for Nintendo Switch users in the region. The site is well-branded and targets Nintendo consumers in Saudi Arabia, positioning itself as the official regional distributor with a medium-sized business footprint. Technically, the site is built on the Odoo CMS platform, using modern web technologies such as Bootstrap and FontAwesome, and integrates Google Tag Manager and Analytics for tracking. The site is mobile-optimized and offers a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and includes CSRF tokens, but lacks visible security headers and a cookie consent mechanism. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain is a notable anomaly that impacts trustworthiness. Overall, the site is professional and functional but would benefit from enhanced security headers, privacy compliance improvements, and transparency in domain registration.

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

5 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

    • 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. 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

Nintendo Saudi Arabia, operated by AIC, holds an official distributor role, selling Nintendo consoles, games, and accessories through local retailers and an online presence. The business model focuses on retail and customer support services, targeting gamers and Nintendo fans in Saudi Arabia. The website content and branding reinforce its official status, supported by social media channels and contact information. The partnership with the online store domain store.nintendo.sa indicates a structured ecosystem for sales and support. Growth indicators include announcements of new product launches and localized content. The company appears to maintain a medium-sized operation with a focus on regional market penetration and customer engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enforced and CSRF tokens implemented. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is published, limiting transparency for security issues. The absence of a cookie consent mechanism despite tracking scripts raises privacy compliance concerns. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be improved by adopting best practices in headers, privacy compliance, and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against web attacks.
  2. Introduce a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply with privacy regulations and inform users about tracking.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Verify and publish accurate WHOIS domain registration data to improve domain legitimacy and trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Odoo CMS platform, leveraging Bootstrap for responsive design and FontAwesome for icons. It uses Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for user tracking and marketing analytics. The site loads asynchronously and defers JavaScript to improve performance. Mobile optimization is good, with a responsive navigation menu and image resizing. SEO is supported by proper meta tags including Open Graph and Twitter cards. Accessibility is basic but present. No hosting provider information was detected. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and asset optimization. The technical stack is modern and suitable for the business needs but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and privacy features.
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.
