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

Scramble Ireland operates as a specialized e-commerce retailer focused on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and grappling apparel and equipment, serving primarily the Irish market. The company offers a range of products including rashguards, shorts, kimonos, belts, and related accessories. Positioned as Ireland's leading BJJ and grappling store, it leverages the Square Online platform for its digital storefront, integrating payment and shipping functionalities seamlessly. The website demonstrates a professional design with good user experience and mobile optimization, supporting both in-store pickup and shipping options. Technically, the site employs modern web technologies including Vue.js and integrates third-party services such as Cookiebot for cookie consent management, Snowplow for analytics, and Sentry for error monitoring. Hosting is managed via Square's CDN infrastructure, ensuring reliable performance. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement and standard security headers, although explicit security policies and incident response information are absent. From a security and compliance perspective, the site implements GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms but lacks a dedicated privacy policy and terms of service pages, which are critical for full compliance and user trust. The absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, although the professional site presence and integration with reputable payment partners mitigate some risk. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Overall, Scramble Ireland presents a credible and professionally managed online retail presence with room for improvement in privacy documentation and domain registration transparency. Strategic enhancements in compliance documentation and security disclosures would strengthen trust and regulatory adherence.

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. 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"

    • 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
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 24 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography

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

Scramble Ireland holds a niche market position as a leading BJJ and grappling gear retailer in Ireland, targeting martial arts practitioners and enthusiasts. The business model centers on e-commerce retail with additional services such as gift cards and local pickup. Revenue streams likely derive from direct product sales and affiliate marketing partnerships. The company maintains active social media channels to engage its target audience and employs affiliate tracking to drive repeat purchases. The partnership ecosystem includes Square for payment processing and GoAffPro for affiliate management. Growth indicators include a well-structured online presence and integration of modern e-commerce features. However, the lack of public WHOIS data and privacy policy pages suggests areas for operational transparency improvement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and cookie consent management aligned with GDPR requirements. Use of Sentry for error tracking indicates proactive monitoring. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response plan, and vulnerability disclosure process limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive information were found, but the missing WHOIS data and lack of explicit compliance documentation represent compliance gaps. The site should enhance its security culture by publishing relevant policies and establishing clear incident response contacts to improve trust and regulatory compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page detailing data collection, processing, and user rights to enhance GDPR compliance.
  2. Add a terms of service page to clarify user agreements and legal protections.
  3. Develop and publish a security policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Verify and update domain WHOIS registration information to ensure legitimacy and trustworthiness.
  5. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and integrations to mitigate potential vulnerabilities and maintain security hygiene.

Technical notes

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.
