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

Sole Retriever operates as a specialized digital platform focused on delivering timely sneaker news, release dates, and raffle information for popular brands such as Nike, Jordan, New Balance, adidas, and Crocs. Positioned as a leading source in the sneaker enthusiast community, the website offers curated content and a mobile app to engage its target audience of sneaker collectors and consumers. The business model likely revolves around content monetization through advertising and affiliate marketing. Technically, the site leverages modern web technologies including Next.js and React, hosted on Vercel, with CMS support from Sanity.io and backend services via Supabase. This infrastructure supports fast performance, good mobile optimization, and accessibility. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement and multiple security headers, although the absence of explicit privacy and cookie policies indicates room for compliance improvement. The WHOIS data is notably missing, which raises some concerns about domain legitimacy despite the professional web presence. Overall, the site is trustworthy and well-maintained but should address privacy compliance and domain transparency to enhance credibility further.

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

3 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

  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 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 platform targets sneaker enthusiasts by providing comprehensive release calendars, news, and raffle details, establishing a competitive advantage through up-to-date and curated content. Its partnership ecosystem includes social media channels on X, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and Threads, enhancing reach and engagement. The business model is content-driven with potential revenue from advertising and affiliate links. Growth indicators include a well-structured website with frequent content updates and a mobile app offering. The company maintains consistent branding and a professional online presence, positioning itself as an important player in the retail and media sectors related to sneaker culture.

Security posture

Sole Retriever demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and a comprehensive set of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms suggests gaps in formal security governance and transparency. Compliance with GDPR and cookie consent mechanisms is also lacking, which could pose regulatory risks. The site uses third-party analytics and tracking services, which should be regularly audited for privacy compliance. Overall, the security posture is good but can be improved by formalizing policies and enhancing user privacy controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with privacy regulations.
  3. Add a terms of service page to clarify user rights and responsibilities.
  4. Establish and publish a security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and analytics tools for security and privacy compliance.

Notes

The website is built on a modern and scalable tech stack including Next.js and React, ensuring fast load times and good mobile responsiveness. Hosting on Vercel provides robust infrastructure and CDN capabilities. The use of Sanity.io as a CMS and Supabase for backend services indicates a well-architected backend supporting dynamic content delivery. The site includes SEO best practices with proper meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Accessibility features are present, enhancing usability for diverse users. No significant technical debt or outdated technologies were observed. Opportunities exist to enhance privacy compliance and formalize security governance to reduce technical and regulatory risks.
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.
