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.
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.

Missing X-Frame-Options header
Prevents clickjacking attacks
What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"
This scan found 25 issues across 6 checks. Monitoring re-runs those checks daily, emails you when something material changes and records each fix, so you can show progress.

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.

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

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The business leverages direct trade sourcing to differentiate itself in the premium chocolate market, ensuring quality and ethical standards. Its e-commerce model targets consumers seeking artisanal and sustainable chocolate products, supported by a well-structured online shop and marketing integrations such as Google Ads and Facebook Pixel. The company maintains active social media channels to engage customers and promote brand awareness. The website's content and structured data indicate a small-sized enterprise founded around 2013, with no parent or subsidiary companies identified. The presence of awards and recognitions enhances credibility. The partnership with Kendesign for website development suggests professional digital marketing support.
Security posture
The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enabled and use of security-focused plugins like StopBadBots and Borlabs Cookie for consent management. Security headers are partially implemented, and no critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. Minor CSP violations related to script loading were detected, which should be addressed to strengthen defenses against cross-site scripting. The absence of explicit incident response or security policy pages is a gap in transparency. Overall, the site balances usability and security effectively but can improve in policy disclosures and CSP enforcement.
Recommendations
Enhance Content Security Policy to eliminate script-src-elem violations and improve script loading security.
Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to increase transparency and trust.
Regularly audit and update all plugins and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
Improve accessibility features to meet higher compliance standards and broaden user inclusivity.
Maintain and monitor privacy compliance, especially regarding data retention and user consent management.

Technical notes
Notes
The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality. It uses popular and well-supported plugins such as Slider Revolution for visual content, WP Rocket for caching and performance optimization, Borlabs Cookie for GDPR-compliant cookie management, and Rank Math for SEO. The hosting is provided by Kasserver, a German hosting provider, which aligns with the site's country focus. Performance optimizations like lazy loading and script deferring are implemented, contributing to fast load times. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and includes structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO enhancement. Minor technical debt is noted in CSP configuration and some inline scripts, which can be improved for better security and maintainability.
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.
