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. 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
    • 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

  • 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

Pierce Me London operates in the retail and e-commerce sector, focusing on body piercing and jewellery. Their business model combines service bookings with product sales, catering to a specialized customer base. The company has a social media presence on Facebook and Instagram, enhancing brand visibility. The domain age and registration details align with the business founding year, indicating legitimacy. The use of Shopify as a platform provides scalability and security benefits. No partnerships or subsidiaries were identified from the data. The company appears to be focused on organic growth within its niche market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, appropriate security headers, and secure checkout processes via Shopify. Cookie consent is implemented with an opt-in mechanism, supporting GDPR compliance. However, there is no publicly available security policy or incident response contact information, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The absence of a vulnerability disclosure policy is a minor gap. Overall, the security measures are adequate for the business size and industry.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Add incident response contact information, such as a security or abuse email address.
  3. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Develop and publish a terms of service page to clarify user and business obligations.
  5. Enhance website accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Shopify platform using the Dawn theme, leveraging modern HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript technologies. It uses Cloudflare for DNS and CDN services, enhancing performance and security. The site includes SEO-optimized meta tags, Open Graph data, and JSON-LD structured data for improved search engine visibility. Performance is moderate with deferred and async loading of scripts. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and accessible navigation. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No deprecated or vulnerable libraries were detected. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid and appropriate for the business scale.
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.
