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

Polar Sport operates a professional e-commerce platform specializing in outdoor and mountain sports equipment, including trekking shoes, tents, clothing, backpacks, and climbing gear. The website targets outdoor enthusiasts primarily in Poland, offering products from well-known brands such as Salewa, Mammut, and The North Face. The company appears to have a solid market position within the Polish outdoor retail sector, supported by a well-structured and content-rich website. Technically, the website is built on the Magento CMS platform, leveraging modern web technologies including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Cookiebot for privacy compliance. The site is served over HTTPS with appropriate security headers, indicating a good security posture. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS, uses cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR, and does not expose sensitive data in the HTML content. However, there is room for improvement in implementing a full Content-Security-Policy and publishing a security.txt file for vulnerability disclosure. No WAF or blocking mechanisms were detected, allowing full content accessibility. Overall, the website demonstrates a mature digital presence with good privacy and security practices, suitable for its business model. The lack of public WHOIS data is consistent with Polish domain registry policies and does not detract from the site's legitimacy. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, adding vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, and improving accessibility to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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

Polar Sport is positioned as a key player in the Polish outdoor retail market, focusing on high-quality mountain and trekking gear. Its business model is direct e-commerce sales targeting outdoor sports enthusiasts. The company leverages partnerships with premium brands to maintain competitive advantage. The website's content and structure support customer engagement and product discovery, indicating a customer-centric approach. The use of advanced marketing and analytics tools suggests a data-driven strategy to optimize sales and customer experience. No explicit information on company size or founding year was found, but the medium size and established brand presence are inferred from the website and product range.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security maturity level with enforced HTTPS, standard security headers, and GDPR-compliant cookie consent. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive information were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party scripts is extensive but from reputable sources. There is no evidence of a published security policy or incident response contacts, which could be improved. The absence of a security.txt file limits formal vulnerability disclosure channels. Overall, the site maintains a secure environment appropriate for e-commerce but should enhance transparency and formal security communication.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a comprehensive Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate XSS and related attacks.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure instructions.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for security vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding explicit contact information and security policy pages to increase transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Magento CMS, a widely used e-commerce platform, indicating a robust infrastructure for online retail. It integrates multiple third-party services including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Cookiebot, and New Relic for analytics, marketing, privacy compliance, and performance monitoring. The site uses modern web standards with responsive design and preloaded fonts for performance optimization. Hosting details are not explicit but likely use CDN and security services such as Cloudflare. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in load times and accessibility. The technical stack supports scalability and marketing effectiveness but requires ongoing maintenance to manage third-party dependencies and security.
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.
