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

4 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

  2. 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 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';…

  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

The company holds a strong market position in the sports nutrition retail sector, leveraging its established brand and international reach. Its business model centers on direct online sales supported by educational content and community engagement, which enhances customer loyalty and brand awareness. The partnership ecosystem includes parent and partner companies such as Active Nutrition International GmbH and BellRing Brands, indicating a well-integrated supply and distribution network. The use of affiliate marketing (AWIN) and comprehensive analytics reflects a mature digital marketing strategy. Growth potential is supported by the expanding global interest in fitness and health nutrition products.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, cookie consent management, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of security headers like Content-Security-Policy and a published security policy or incident response contact reduces the overall security maturity. No vulnerabilities or suspicious patterns were detected in the content or scripts. Compliance with GDPR is evident through privacy and cookie policies. The site would benefit from publishing a security.txt file and enhancing header configurations to mitigate risks further.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve security communication.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.
  5. Continue monitoring third-party scripts and tracking tools to ensure privacy compliance and minimize tracking footprint.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Shopware 6 e-commerce platform, utilizing modern web technologies including jQuery, Google Tag Manager, and Usercentrics for consent management. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. The site uses Trusted Shops for trust signals and AWIN for affiliate marketing. There is no explicit hosting provider identified from the content. The technical implementation is solid but could be improved by adding security headers and enhancing accessibility. The site is well-structured with clear navigation and professional design, supporting a positive user experience.
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.
