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

The website www.r129-parts.eu operates as a specialized e-commerce platform focused on selling new and used original Mercedes SL-Class spare parts, particularly for the R129 model. It targets Mercedes enthusiasts and owners seeking authentic OEM parts with real product images, offering services such as fast delivery, a 14-day money back guarantee, and a 90-day warranty. The business appears to be a small, passionate venture with a customer-first approach, emphasizing quality and authenticity. Technically, the site employs modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery, Swiper, LightGallery, and Select2, alongside Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for tracking. It uses HTTPS with a valid SSL configuration and implements a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. The site is mobile-optimized with good navigation and SEO practices, though accessibility features are basic. From a security perspective, the site benefits from HTTPS and cookie consent but lacks visible security headers and formal security policies such as incident response or vulnerability disclosure. No WHOIS registrant data is publicly available due to EURid privacy policies, but the domain appears consistent with the business's niche and longevity. No suspicious or malicious indicators were found. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and professional small business e-commerce platform with room for improvement in security best practices and formal policy disclosures.

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

5 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

  4. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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 business occupies a niche market specializing in Mercedes SL-Class R129 spare parts, leveraging a small business model focused on authenticity and customer service. Its competitive advantage lies in offering both new and used OEM parts with real images and warranties, appealing to classic car enthusiasts. Revenue streams are primarily from direct online sales. The target customers are automotive hobbyists and owners of the R129 model. The company emphasizes personal customer support via WhatsApp and maintains a clear brand identity. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries. Growth potential exists through expanding parts inventory and enhancing digital presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, indicating awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of security headers (e.g., CSP, HSTS), lack of incident response contact information, and no vulnerability disclosure policy represent gaps that could expose the business to risks such as cross-site scripting or phishing. Data protection practices are basic but compliant with GDPR through cookie consent. The site does not expose sensitive data or use vulnerable libraries visibly. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not evident from the content.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a terms of service page and a formal security policy outlining data protection and incident response procedures.
  3. Add a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and improve transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end technology stack with popular JavaScript libraries for UI components and galleries, ensuring a responsive and interactive user experience. Google Analytics and Tag Manager are integrated for analytics and marketing purposes. The site is served over HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, contributing to secure data transmission. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed and accessibility. The absence of a detected CMS suggests a custom or lightweight platform. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Technical debt appears low but could be reduced by adding security headers and formalizing compliance documentation.
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.
