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

Shopware AG operates a leading-edge ecommerce platform designed to empower online businesses with innovative and flexible solutions. The platform offers a blend of open-source and cloud-based services, targeting ecommerce merchants, developers, and agencies. Shopware holds a strong market position supported by a vibrant community, extensive developer resources, and recognition such as the Gartner Magic Quadrant 2024. Technically, the website leverages modern JavaScript frameworks like Vue.js, integrates marketing and analytics tools such as HubSpot and Google Tag Manager, and employs a consent management platform to ensure privacy compliance. Security posture is robust with HTTPS enforcement, security headers, and ISO 27001 certification, though explicit incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies are not publicly detailed. Overall, the website is professional, well-structured, and trustworthy, with moderate risk due to missing WHOIS data that warrants further verification.

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. 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

  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 23 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

Shopware's business model centers on providing a comprehensive ecommerce platform with SaaS and open-source offerings. Its target customers include B2B and B2C merchants seeking scalable and customizable online store solutions. The company benefits from a strong partnership ecosystem, including agencies, hosting, and technology partners. Revenue streams likely include platform subscriptions, cloud services, and marketplace transactions. Growth indicators include continuous product innovation (e.g., Shopware AI, 3D & AR Commerce) and active community engagement. Strategic observations highlight Shopware's focus on automation, omnichannel commerce, and developer enablement to maintain competitive advantage.

Security posture

Shopware demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and adherence to ISO 27001 standards. The presence of a Trust Center page indicates commitment to security and privacy. However, the absence of publicly available incident response contacts and vulnerability disclosure programs suggests areas for improvement in transparency and readiness. Data protection practices include GDPR-compliant privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the website content. Overall, the security maturity is high but could benefit from enhanced communication of security processes.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy with clear contact channels.
  2. Provide direct security contact emails (e.g., security@shopware.com) to facilitate responsible disclosure.
  3. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and integrations to mitigate supply chain risks.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet or exceed WCAG standards for broader inclusivity.
  5. Maintain transparency on data retention and processing policies to strengthen privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern technology stack featuring Vue.js for frontend interactivity and HubSpot for marketing automation. It employs server-side tagging via Stape and integrates Usercentrics for cookie consent management. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good accessibility practices. Performance is fast with efficient resource loading and caching strategies. SEO is well addressed through proper meta tags and structured navigation. Hosting details are not explicitly identified but the presence of CDN and external asset domains suggests a distributed infrastructure. Technical risks are minimal, with opportunities for further modernization in accessibility and security transparency.
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.
