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

2 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 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. 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

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

Sherpaan holds a strong position in the e-commerce logistics software market, serving over 200 webshops with a focus on scalable and flexible warehouse management solutions. Their business model centers on SaaS and custom software development, leveraging integrations with leading e-commerce platforms to provide seamless logistics automation. The company showcases multiple client case studies and partner affiliations, indicating a robust partnership ecosystem and customer trust. Founded in 2007, Sherpaan has established longevity and domain consistency. Their target customers are medium to large e-commerce businesses seeking to optimize warehouse operations. The website content and structure support lead generation through demo requests and detailed service descriptions, reflecting a growth-oriented strategy.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with DNSSEC enabled, indicating a secure domain and transport layer. Cookie consent is managed via a reputable GDPR plugin with opt-in mechanisms, supporting privacy compliance. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests room for improvement in transparency and preparedness. The use of third-party scripts like Google Tag Manager and Leadinfo is standard but requires ongoing monitoring for security risks. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing dedicated security documentation and incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and preparedness.
  2. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and responsible reporting.
  3. Enhance website accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding a terms of service page to clarify user agreements and legal protections.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including JavaScript libraries such as Swiper.js for UI components and Google Tag Manager for analytics. The site uses a GDPR-compliant cookie consent plugin (Complianz) and Leadinfo for visitor tracking. Performance is moderate with preloading of CSS assets and asynchronous loading of scripts. Mobile optimization is good with responsive menus and layouts. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Hosting provider details are not explicit, but DNSSEC and HTTPS indicate a secure hosting environment. Technical debt appears low, though accessibility could be improved. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional user experience.
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.
