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

Public.gr is a leading Greek e-commerce platform specializing in technology, entertainment, and home appliances. The website targets a broad consumer audience in Greece, offering a wide range of products for various family members. The platform demonstrates a mature digital infrastructure leveraging modern web technologies such as Angular, Dynatrace for performance monitoring, Cookiebot for consent management, and integration with payment and marketing tools like Klarna and Bitrec. The website is well-optimized for mobile devices and SEO, providing a good user experience with consistent branding and professional design. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and monitoring tools in place, though explicit security headers and policies are not visible in the analyzed content. Privacy compliance is partially addressed via cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks visible privacy policy and terms of service pages. Overall, the domain registration data aligns well with the business claims, supporting high legitimacy and trustworthiness.

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

8 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

  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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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';…

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

Public.gr holds a strong market position as the number one destination in Greece for technology and entertainment products. Its business model is retail e-commerce, serving a large consumer base with a comprehensive product catalog. The company leverages partnerships with payment providers like Klarna and uses advanced analytics and recommendation engines to enhance customer engagement. The absence of explicit contact and security policy information suggests room for improvement in transparency and compliance. The platform's use of multiple third-party services indicates a robust ecosystem supporting marketing, analytics, and user experience. The brand consistency and professional presentation reinforce its credibility in the competitive Greek e-commerce market.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with an excellent SSL configuration and integrates Dynatrace for real-time monitoring, indicating a proactive approach to performance and security. Cookie consent is managed via Cookiebot, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security hardening. No visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is present, which could impact readiness for security incidents. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The security score is good but could be improved by publishing security policies and implementing additional HTTP security headers.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages prominently linked on the website.
  2. Implement and publish a security policy including incident response contact information.
  3. Add HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance security posture.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Angular framework, supported by a modern tech stack including Dynatrace for monitoring, Cookiebot for consent management, and integration with Klarna for payments. Hosting appears to be via Akamai CDN, ensuring fast content delivery. Performance monitoring tools like Boomerang and Bitrec recommender are used to optimize user experience and product recommendations. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO practices including meta tags and Open Graph data. Some technical debt is noted in the lack of explicit security headers and missing privacy/legal pages. Overall, the technical infrastructure is robust and supports a large-scale e-commerce operation effectively.
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.
