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. 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';…
  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

PUMA Europe GmbH benefits from its parent company PUMA SE's global brand recognition and extensive distribution network. The business model focuses on direct-to-consumer online retail complemented by physical retail channels. The company targets a broad demographic including men, women, and children interested in sports and lifestyle products. Strategic collaborations with designers enhance brand appeal. The website's integration with multiple marketing and analytics platforms supports data-driven decision-making and customer engagement. The absence of public WHOIS data is typical for large brands employing privacy protections. The company maintains a strong presence on major social media platforms, reinforcing its marketing ecosystem.

Security posture

The website employs industry-standard security practices including HTTPS, security headers, and cookie consent aligned with GDPR requirements. However, the lack of a publicly accessible security policy, incident response information, and vulnerability disclosure program limits transparency. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The use of reputable third-party services is a positive indicator, but continuous monitoring and public disclosure of security practices would enhance trust. The site’s security score is strong but could be improved by publishing explicit security documentation and contact channels for security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security practices and compliance.
  2. Establish and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program and security.txt file.
  3. Provide clear contact information for incident response and data protection officer.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency on data retention and privacy practices to strengthen GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Salesforce Commerce Cloud (Demandware), leveraging modern JavaScript frameworks and multiple third-party integrations for analytics, personalization, and marketing. Performance optimization is evident through the use of Yottaa and asynchronous script loading. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. SEO best practices are implemented with comprehensive meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. The technical infrastructure supports a fast and reliable user experience suitable for a large-scale e-commerce operation. Opportunities exist to further modernize by consolidating scripts and enhancing security transparency.
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.
