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. 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';…
  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

    • 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 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

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

Spreadshop targets creators and small businesses seeking to monetize their brand through custom merchandise. Its business model leverages print-on-demand technology, eliminating inventory risks and upfront costs. The platform's competitive advantage lies in its integrations with social media platforms like TikTok and YouTube, enabling creators to sell merch directly to their audiences. The company maintains a strong digital presence and offers additional services such as embroidery and design support. Growth indicators include active content marketing and a diverse product catalog exceeding 250 items. The partnership with Spreadshirt and use of advanced CMS solutions reflect a mature operational ecosystem.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and implements key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, enhancing protection against common web attacks. Cookie consent is managed via OneTrust, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page and lack of published incident response contacts or vulnerability disclosure programs represent gaps in security transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The security maturity is good but could be improved by formalizing security governance documentation and communication.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and user trust.
  2. Provide explicit security contact emails such as security@spreadshop.com or abuse@spreadshop.com.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program and consider adding a security.txt file.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards and improve user experience for all audiences.
  5. Maintain regular audits of third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks.

Spreadshop's website is built using modern web technologies including React and Next.js, supported by a custom CMS (BigContent.io). The site is well-structured with responsive design, optimized images, and efficient loading strategies. Integration of Adobe Analytics and OneTrust for tracking and consent management indicates a mature digital marketing infrastructure. The absence of legacy or vulnerable libraries suggests good maintenance practices.

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.
