Risk levelMedium

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

PENNY Magyarország operates as a retail grocery business in Hungary, providing consumer goods through its website. The site is built using modern web technologies such as Vue.js and Google Fonts, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. However, the website lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, which are critical for GDPR compliance, and does not expose security headers or advanced security configurations. The absence of explicit contact information and security policies suggests areas for improvement in transparency and user trust. Overall, the website is functional and accessible but requires enhancements in privacy compliance and security posture to meet industry best practices.

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

6 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.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

  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

The company is positioned as a large retail supermarket chain in Hungary, targeting general consumers seeking grocery products. The business model focuses on retail sales with a likely extensive physical presence supported by the website. No detailed information about founding year, parent company, or subsidiaries was found. The website content is basic but consistent with the brand identity. There is no evidence of affiliate programs or advanced marketing tools in use. The lack of detailed business contact information limits deeper business intelligence insights.

Security posture

The website currently exhibits a low security posture with no detected security headers, no visible incident response contacts, and no vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. HTTPS status and SSL configuration could not be confirmed from the provided data. The absence of privacy and cookie policies further indicates compliance gaps. No known vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The security score is low, and improvements are recommended to enhance user trust and regulatory compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve security posture.
  3. Provide clear and accessible contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer and security incident reporting.
  4. Conduct a security audit to verify SSL/TLS configuration and enforce HTTPS across the site.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Vue.js framework and Google Fonts, indicating a modern front-end technology stack. The HTML content is well-structured but lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features. Performance is moderate with no explicit indicators of optimization or CDN usage. Mobile optimization appears good based on viewport meta tags and responsive CSS classes. No CMS or hosting provider information was detected. The site could benefit from enhanced SEO meta tags and accessibility improvements to improve user experience and search engine ranking.
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.
