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

SONNENTOR Kräuterhandels GMBH operates a professional e-commerce and retail platform specializing in organic teas and spices with a strong commitment to sustainability, direct trade, and eco-friendly packaging. The company has a well-established market presence since 1988, targeting consumers interested in organic and sustainable products. The website is well-designed, mobile-optimized, and provides comprehensive content and navigation. Technically, the site uses modern technologies including Pimcore CMS, Bootstrap framework, and integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager, Matomo, Emarsys, and Kameleoon. However, the security posture is weakened by the absence of a valid SSL certificate and lack of HTTPS support, which is a critical issue that must be addressed promptly to protect user data and maintain trust. Privacy compliance is strong with clear cookie consent mechanisms and GDPR-aligned privacy policies. Overall, the business credibility is high, supported by clear contact information, certifications, and consistent WHOIS data.

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. GDPR outside view

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

    • Critical

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

    • 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. 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.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

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

SONNENTOR holds a strong position in the organic retail sector, leveraging direct trade and sustainability as competitive advantages. Their business model combines physical retail stores in multiple countries with an online shop, serving a medium-sized enterprise. The company emphasizes transparency and trust through certifications and eco-friendly initiatives. Their marketing ecosystem includes advanced tracking and personalization tools, indicating a mature digital marketing strategy. Growth potential is supported by a loyal customer base and international reach. Partnerships with organic farmers and sustainability initiatives reinforce brand authenticity and market differentiation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates partial adherence to security best practices with several security headers implemented and secure cookie attributes set. However, the lack of a valid SSL certificate and absence of HTTPS support represent significant vulnerabilities, exposing users to potential data interception and undermining trust. The site does not support modern TLS protocols, lacks OCSP stapling, and does not enable HSTS effectively. No known vulnerabilities or malware were detected in the content. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies are not publicly available, which could be improved to enhance security transparency and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS across the entire site immediately.
  2. Enable and configure TLS 1.2 or higher protocols to ensure secure communications.
  3. Properly configure and enable HSTS with includeSubDomains and preload directives to enforce HTTPS.
  4. Implement OCSP stapling to improve certificate revocation checks and reduce latency.
  5. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact information to improve security transparency.
  6. Regularly audit and update security headers and Content Security Policy to mitigate emerging threats.
  7. Enhance performance monitoring and optimize resource loading to improve user experience.
  8. Maintain and update privacy and cookie consent mechanisms to comply with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Pimcore CMS platform with Apache server hosting. It uses Bootstrap 4.1.0 for responsive design and integrates multiple third-party services including Usercentrics for cookie consent, Emarsys for marketing automation, Kameleoon for A/B testing, and Matomo for analytics. The DNS is managed by WVNET with multiple authoritative name servers and a valid MX record for email. The site lacks DNSSEC and has malformed CAA records. Performance metrics were not available, but the site appears optimized for mobile and accessibility with ARIA roles and skip links. The absence of HTTPS and modern TLS protocols is a major technical risk. The site uses extensive JavaScript for dynamic content and tracking, which may impact load times if not optimized.
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.
