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

3 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.

    • 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

  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

  3. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Domain Expires Soon

      Domain expires in 26 days

      What to do: Renew domain registration before expiration

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

SanDisk operates primarily in the technology sector, focusing on manufacturing and direct sales of digital storage products. Its market position is strong, supported by a global brand and parent company Western Digital. The business model includes product innovation and e-commerce sales through official channels. The website's extensive localization and alternate language links indicate a global market reach. The company employs advanced marketing and analytics tools such as Adobe Analytics and Facebook Pixel, reflecting a sophisticated digital marketing strategy. The absence of direct phone numbers or physical addresses on the main site suggests a focus on digital customer engagement and support through online forms and portals. The partnership with shop.sandisk.com as an official sales channel further supports its integrated business ecosystem.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security posture with enforced HTTPS, modern security headers, and a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR. The use of trusted third-party services and content delivery networks enhances security and performance. However, the lack of publicly available security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure programs represents an area for improvement in transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The site does not appear to be behind a WAF or present any blocking challenges, indicating stable and open access. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from enhanced communication of security governance and incident handling procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing security governance and controls.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information and procedures.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Disclose data protection officer contact details to enhance GDPR transparency.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and analytics tools to mitigate supply chain risks.

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.
