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

Silver Mushroom is a small, award-winning family-run e-commerce retailer specializing in luxury homeware and accessories. The website is built on the Shopify platform using a modern Pipeline theme, offering a curated collection of home decor products such as diffusers, lighting, and farmhouse furniture. The business targets consumers interested in organic luxury and timeless interior styles. Technically, the site is well-implemented with fast performance, mobile optimization, and integration of multiple marketing and analytics tools. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and privacy compliance evident through cookie consent and privacy policies. However, the absence of WHOIS registration data and lack of visible contact information slightly reduce business credibility. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and compliant with privacy regulations.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain: ms22092825.msv1.invalid

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory
      • NIST CM-8: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-8: System Component Inventory

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  3. 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

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

The company operates in the retail sector focusing on homeware, leveraging Shopify's e-commerce infrastructure. Its market position is niche, emphasizing organic luxury and timeless design, which may appeal to a discerning customer base. The business model is direct-to-consumer online retail with integrated marketing via Facebook Pixel, Omnisend, and affiliate programs. The lack of publicly available WHOIS data and contact details suggests a need for improved transparency. The presence of privacy and cookie policies indicates awareness of regulatory requirements. The company appears to maintain a consistent brand image and uses professional content to engage customers.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and standard security headers likely managed by Shopify. Privacy compliance is supported by cookie consent mechanisms and a comprehensive privacy policy. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure reduces transparency and preparedness perception. The use of multiple third-party scripts necessitates ongoing monitoring to mitigate supply chain risks. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security and incident response information.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information on the website to improve transparency and trust.
  2. Add a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and improve business credibility.
  4. Include clear company contact details such as support email and phone number to enhance customer trust and compliance.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and marketing tools for security and privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Shopify using the Pipeline theme version 7.4.1, leveraging modern web technologies including JavaScript, CSS, and HTML5. It uses Shopify's CDN for hosting and integrates multiple third-party marketing and analytics services such as Facebook Pixel, Omnisend, and GoAffPro affiliate tracking. The site is optimized for mobile devices and demonstrates good SEO practices with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is fast with preloading of fonts and asynchronous loading of scripts. Accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA attributes are present. The technical infrastructure is robust and well-maintained, though reliance on multiple external scripts requires ongoing security vigilance.
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.
