71/100

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

Swatch is a globally recognized watch brand operating an official Finnish e-commerce website offering a wide range of watches. The site is built on Salesforce Commerce Cloud, indicating a mature digital infrastructure supporting e-commerce functionalities such as product search, cart, and checkout. The website demonstrates strong branding consistency and professional design, targeting general consumers in Finland. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies and integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools, including Google Tag Manager and TikTok Analytics, with a cookie consent mechanism ensuring GDPR compliance. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and CSRF protections, though explicit security headers should be verified. WHOIS data was unavailable from the raw output, likely due to query restrictions, but the domain is a well-known brand domain, reducing suspicion. Overall, the site is trustworthy, professional, and compliant with privacy regulations.

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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Swatch operates as a large retail e-commerce business specializing in watches, targeting consumers in Finland and globally through localized sites. The business model is direct online sales with a strong brand presence. The website's integration with Salesforce Commerce Cloud and personalization services like CQuotient indicates investment in customer experience and marketing. The absence of direct contact information on the main page suggests reliance on online support channels. The site uses multiple advertising and tracking services, reflecting a mature marketing ecosystem. No suspicious domains or affiliate programs were detected. The business appears well-positioned in the retail watch market with a consistent brand image and professional online presence.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and implements CSRF tokens, indicating good baseline security practices. Cookie consent and privacy policies are present and comprehensive, supporting GDPR compliance. The site uses multiple third-party scripts for analytics and marketing, which should be regularly audited to prevent vulnerabilities. No explicit security headers were detected in the provided data, so it is recommended to verify headers like X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analysis. Incident response and security policy pages were not identified, which could be improved for transparency. Overall, the security posture is strong but could benefit from enhanced header configurations and published incident response information.

Recommendations

  1. Verify and implement comprehensive security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish explicit security policy and incident response information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
  4. Enhance contact information availability for customer and security incident reporting.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving regulations and practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Salesforce Commerce Cloud, a robust e-commerce platform, and uses modern JavaScript frameworks and libraries. It integrates Google Tag Manager, TikTok Analytics, and CQuotient for marketing and personalization. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with preloading of critical CSS and fonts. The presence of CSRF tokens and cookie consent scripts indicates attention to security and privacy. Hosting provider details were not explicitly found. The technical stack supports a professional e-commerce experience but should ensure continuous monitoring of third-party dependencies and performance optimization.
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.
