Security report for sfera.com
Sfera · Retail · Spain
Sfera is a retail fashion brand operating an online platform primarily targeting Spanish-speaking countries with some English-speaking markets. The website serves as a login and country selection portal for customers. The business model focuses on e-commerce sales of apparel and accessories. The website's market position appears established but lacks visible trust signals or detailed business information on the landing page. Technically, the site uses common web technologies such as jQuery, Google Tag Manager, and Ensighten for tracking and tag management, with Akamai as a CDN provider. The site shows basic mobile optimization and moderate performance but lacks advanced SEO optimization due to restrictive meta robots tags. No CMS or specific frameworks were detected. From a security perspective, the site lacks visible security headers and privacy or cookie policies, which are critical for GDPR compliance. The WHOIS data is missing, raising concerns about domain legitimacy. No WAF or blocking mechanisms were detected, and the site content is accessible. The security posture is moderate but requires improvements in SSL configuration, header implementation, and privacy compliance. Overall, the site scores moderately low on AI scoring due to missing WHOIS data, lack of privacy policies, and poor SEO. Strategic recommendations include improving transparency with privacy and cookie policies, enhancing security headers, and verifying domain registration details to build trust.

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.
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.
- Critical
Unable to retrieve SSL certificate
Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information
What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured
- Critical
GDPR outside view
These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.
- High
No Privacy Policy found
GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy
What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently
- GDPR Art. 12
- GDPR Art. 13
- NIST PT-5: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 PT-5: Privacy Notice
- 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
- 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
- GDPR Art. 7
- ePrivacy Art. 5(3)
- NIST PT-4: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 PT-4: Consent

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
- Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
- 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.

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.
