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. 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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

Samsonite's German website reflects a mature retail and e-commerce business model with a comprehensive product catalog and customer engagement through personalization and service portals. The company benefits from a strong brand reputation and a wide partner ecosystem including service portals and global shops. The site’s extensive use of tracking and marketing technologies indicates a data-driven approach to customer acquisition and retention. The presence of multiple country-specific domains suggests a well-structured international market strategy. The business targets a broad consumer base seeking durable and innovative travel products.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with enforced HTTPS, modern security headers, and no exposed sensitive data. The use of reputable third-party analytics and marketing services is balanced with privacy compliance indicators such as cookie consent mechanisms and GDPR-aligned privacy policies. However, the absence of a public security policy or vulnerability disclosure program limits transparency. Incident response readiness and contact channels for security issues are not explicitly provided, representing an area for improvement. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing formal security governance documents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response plan on the website.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts to mitigate supply chain risks.
  5. Increase transparency around data retention policies and user privacy controls.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Salesforce Commerce Cloud, utilizing a modern tech stack including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Hotjar, and other marketing tools. The site shows good performance and mobile responsiveness, with prefetching and lazy loading techniques observed. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags, hreflang links for internationalization, and structured data in JSON-LD format. Hosting appears to be on Google Cloud infrastructure with multiple authoritative nameservers. The technical implementation is robust, though accessibility could be improved. The site uses extensive tracking, which is balanced by cookie consent mechanisms.
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.
