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. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

  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

  • Security headers: 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

NIU operates in the competitive electric scooter market with a global footprint, targeting urban commuters and environmentally conscious consumers. Its business model centers on product innovation and direct sales through an online platform complemented by physical stores. The company benefits from a consistent brand image and active social media engagement, particularly on Instagram. While explicit financial or corporate structure details are not disclosed, the breadth of product offerings and language localization suggest a large enterprise scale. NIU's strategic focus on technology and style differentiates it in the urban mobility sector, with potential growth driven by increasing demand for sustainable transportation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security maturity with HTTPS encryption and cookie consent mechanisms in place. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure programs are published, which could hinder transparency and responsiveness to security incidents. The lack of exposed sensitive data and use of reputable third-party services for analytics and consent management are positive indicators. Enhancing security headers, publishing security policies, and establishing clear incident response channels would strengthen the overall security posture and compliance with regulations such as GDPR and NIS2.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  3. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy and security contact information to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility compliance to improve usability for all users and meet legal requirements.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities or privacy risks are introduced.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using modern web technologies including React and Next.js, enabling server-side rendering and improved performance. Integration with CookieYes for cookie consent and Google Tag Manager for analytics reflects a mature approach to privacy and data collection. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata including Open Graph and Twitter cards. However, no CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or headless architecture. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading but could benefit from further optimization. Hosting provider details are not evident from the HTML. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional e-commerce experience but has room for security and accessibility enhancements.
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.
