Risk levelLow

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

Tanger operates as a retail outlet shopping center provider with 39 locations across the United States and Canada. The website presents a professional and user-friendly interface, offering customers access to hundreds of popular brands, exclusive offers, and a rewards program called TangerClub. The company targets general consumers seeking value shopping experiences. Technically, the website is built using modern frameworks such as Next.js and React, with integrations for cookie consent management and chatbot support, indicating a mature digital infrastructure. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS, implements standard security headers, and provides privacy and cookie policies compliant with GDPR, although no explicit security policy or incident response information is published. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain reduces trust signals but does not negate the legitimacy suggested by the website content and security posture. Overall, Tanger's online presence is professional and secure, with room for improvement in transparency around security policies and contact information.

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.

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

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

Tanger holds a strong market position as a large retail outlet operator in North America, focusing on providing value shopping experiences through physical outlet centers and an online presence for brand browsing and customer engagement. The business model centers on leasing retail space to popular brands and enhancing customer loyalty via rewards programs. The website's content and structure support this model effectively, targeting a broad consumer base. The company leverages third-party analytics and marketing tools to optimize user engagement and compliance. However, the lack of publicly available registrant data and direct contact details may limit some trust aspects for new customers or partners. Strategic partnerships and subsidiary information are not evident from the website content.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers in place, reducing common web vulnerabilities. Cookie consent is managed via OneTrust, ensuring compliance with privacy regulations. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a dedicated security policy page, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates gaps in transparency and preparedness. These gaps could impact incident handling and stakeholder trust in case of security events. Regular audits of third-party scripts and enhanced accessibility compliance would further strengthen the security and compliance posture.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information, including abuse and security email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user inclusivity.
  5. Conduct regular security reviews of third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate supply chain risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React and Next.js framework, enabling server-side rendering and improved SEO. It uses external services such as OneTrust for cookie consent and Yellow Messenger for chatbot functionality, indicating integration with advanced marketing and customer support tools. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. The technical stack is current but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and performance optimizations. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or headless CMS approach. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional retail website with scalable capabilities.
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.
