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

Shopware AG operates a leading ecommerce platform designed to empower online businesses with a flexible, open-source solution that supports both B2B and B2C commerce. The platform integrates advanced features such as AI-powered commerce, automation tools, and comprehensive analytics, positioning Shopware as a competitive player in the ecommerce technology market. The company targets ecommerce businesses, developers, and agencies seeking scalable and innovative online store solutions. Technically, the website leverages modern JavaScript frameworks like Vue.js and Nuxt.js, integrates with marketing and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager and HubSpot, and employs a consent management platform to ensure privacy compliance. The site is well-optimized for performance, mobile responsiveness, and accessibility, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure. Security-wise, Shopware enforces HTTPS, implements robust security headers, and manages cookie consent effectively. However, the absence of explicit incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies, as well as missing WHOIS registration details, slightly reduce the overall trust score. Overall, Shopware presents a professional, secure, and privacy-conscious online presence with strong market credibility.

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.

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.

Business context

Business profile

Shopware AG holds a strong market position as an innovative ecommerce platform provider with over 50,000 brands powered globally. Its business model centers on offering open-source and cloud-based ecommerce solutions, supported by a broad partner ecosystem including agencies, hosting providers, and technology partners. The company emphasizes AI and automation to differentiate its offerings and drive sustainable growth. The platform's flexibility and API-first architecture appeal to a wide range of ecommerce sectors, including apparel, automotive, and health & beauty. Shopware's community engagement through forums, developer hubs, and events further strengthens its competitive advantage. While revenue streams likely include software licensing, cloud subscriptions, and partner services, explicit financial data is not disclosed. Strategic partnerships and a comprehensive knowledge base indicate a well-rounded approach to market expansion and customer support.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with mandatory HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and cookie consent management via Usercentrics. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of publicly available incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies and absence of a security.txt file represent gaps in transparency and readiness for security incidents. The WHOIS data is unavailable, which may be due to privacy protection but reduces domain registration transparency. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security policies and providing direct security contact channels to improve trust and incident handling capabilities.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy on the website.
  2. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability reporting.
  3. Provide direct security contact emails (e.g., security@shopware.com) for incident communication.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance transparency by disclosing certifications and compliance frameworks related to security and privacy.

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.
