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. 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

    • 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

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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 niche retail sector of gold-plated jewelry, leveraging Shopify's e-commerce infrastructure. It uses customer review platforms like Judge.me and marketing tools such as Klaviyo to engage customers. The business model is direct-to-consumer online retail, with additional offerings like gift cards and a Mystery Box collection. Social media presence on Instagram and Facebook supports brand awareness. The domain age and registration details align with the business history, supporting credibility. The website content and structure indicate a focus on quality and customer experience, positioning Sofia Lark as a trusted small retailer in its segment.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses domain status flags to prevent unauthorized transfers or updates. CAPTCHA protections are implemented on forms to mitigate automated abuse. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analysis. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, which could improve DNS security. There is no explicit security policy or incident response contact information published, which are areas for improvement. Overall, the security posture is good for a small e-commerce site but could be enhanced with additional policies and DNS security measures.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and incident response procedures.
  3. Add explicit incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and integrations to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Improve accessibility features to meet compliance standards and enhance user experience for all visitors.

Notes

The website is built on Shopify using the Impulse theme, leveraging modern web technologies including JavaScript, CSS, and HTML5. It integrates multiple third-party services such as Judge.me for reviews, Klaviyo for marketing, and MakeCommerce for shipping solutions. The hosting is via Shopify's CDN infrastructure, likely backed by Google Cloud, ensuring moderate to good performance. The site is mobile optimized and supports multiple languages. SEO practices are good with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The technical stack is modern and well maintained, suitable for the business scale and market.
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.
