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

Spreadshirt.at is a professional e-commerce platform specializing in custom T-shirt printing and apparel design, serving primarily the Austrian and broader European market. It operates as part of the larger Spread Group, which is a leading player in the European custom apparel printing industry. The website offers a marketplace for designs, a custom design tool, and B2B corporate clothing solutions, positioning itself as a comprehensive service provider in this niche. Technically, the site employs modern JavaScript libraries, SVG icons, and cookie consent frameworks, ensuring a good user experience and compliance with GDPR regulations. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, though some security headers and explicit security policies are not evident. Overall, the site is well-designed, mobile-optimized, and trustworthy, with clear navigation and professional branding. The lack of WHOIS data limits domain registration trust analysis but does not detract from the site's apparent legitimacy. Recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing a security policy, and adding a vulnerability disclosure mechanism to further strengthen trust and compliance.

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.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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. 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 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';…

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

Spreadshirt.at operates in the e-commerce sector focused on custom apparel printing, targeting both individual consumers and businesses. Its competitive advantage lies in its extensive European presence and integrated marketplace model, allowing designers to sell on a broad product range. Revenue streams likely include direct sales, marketplace commissions, and B2B contracts. The company maintains a strong partnership ecosystem with multiple country-specific domains and uses third-party services for job recruitment and customer support. Growth indicators include active promotional campaigns and a comprehensive help center. The business model emphasizes user-generated content and customization, appealing to creative consumers and corporate clients alike.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS, cookie consent management, and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and a published security policy or incident response contacts indicates room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or malware indicators were detected in the analyzed content. Compliance with GDPR is evident through cookie banners and privacy policy documentation. The site would benefit from formalizing its vulnerability disclosure process and publishing security contact information to enhance transparency and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve security transparency.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerable components are used.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based front end with libraries such as Glide.js for UI components and OneTrust for cookie consent management. SVG icons are used extensively for scalable graphics. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and includes SEO best practices such as meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with some preloading of scripts and stylesheets. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Technical risks include potential missing security headers and reliance on multiple third-party scripts which require ongoing monitoring.
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.
