Medium risk. 5 critical or high findings in GDPR outside view and SSL/TLS.
Ravelry is a community-driven platform focused on knitters, crocheters, and fiber artists, providing a comprehensive organizational tool and a yarn and pattern database. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with a clear focus on its niche audience. The login page includes standard security features such as CSRF tokens and password reveal toggles, indicating attention to user security during authentication. However, the absence of WHOIS data limits the ability to fully verify domain legitimacy and ownership details. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies including HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, and video formats (WebM and MP4) for dynamic splash content. The site is mobile-optimized and includes privacy-focused analytics via plausible.io, reflecting a moderate level of digital maturity. SEO and accessibility are basic to good, but there is room for improvement in security headers and explicit privacy compliance disclosures. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS (implied by canonical URL), uses authenticity tokens in forms, and avoids exposing sensitive data in the HTML. However, no explicit security headers were detected, and privacy and cookie policies are missing from the analyzed content, which could impact compliance with GDPR and other regulations. No contact or incident response information is provided, limiting transparency. Overall, the website is safe, professional, and functional for its intended audience but lacks comprehensive privacy and security disclosures. The domain's WHOIS data absence is a concern for trust but may be due to privacy protection or recent registration. Strategic improvements in privacy policy visibility, security headers, and contact transparency would enhance trust and compliance.
Scanned
NIS2 Art. 21(2)
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.
5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.
GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy
What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently
GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage
What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes
GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies
What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit
TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.
Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1
What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions
SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak
What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
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.

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.
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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
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.
