78/100

Risk levelLow

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

ThermApparel operates a specialized e-commerce platform focused on PCM cooling packs and adaptive cooling vests, targeting customers needing cooling solutions for health, performance, and recreational activities. The website is built on Shopify, leveraging modern e-commerce technologies and integrations such as Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, Mailchimp, and LiveChat to provide a seamless shopping experience and customer engagement. The site demonstrates good technical maturity with fast performance, mobile optimization, and accessibility features. Security posture is strong with HTTPS, security headers, and form protection via hCaptcha, although no explicit security policy or incident response information is published. Privacy compliance is well addressed with clear privacy and cookie policies and GDPR consent mechanisms. However, the absence of WHOIS data and direct company contact emails or phone numbers slightly reduces business credibility. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and safe for general audiences.

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

3 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.

    • 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

  2. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

ThermApparel occupies a niche market in cooling apparel, leveraging PCM technology to offer products that improve comfort and performance. Their business model is direct-to-consumer e-commerce, with a focus on fast shipping and customer support via integrated chat. The company targets individuals with health conditions like Multiple Sclerosis, athletes, and costume enthusiasts. The use of Shopify as a platform indicates scalability and reliability. Marketing efforts include Google and Facebook advertising, email marketing via Mailchimp, and customer engagement through LiveChat. The lack of visible company registration or WHOIS data is a potential risk factor but may be due to privacy protections. The company maintains a consistent brand image and provides educational resources, enhancing customer trust and market positioning.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and implements key security headers such as HSTS, X-Content-Type-Options, and Content-Security-Policy, reducing common web vulnerabilities. Form inputs are protected with hCaptcha to mitigate bot abuse. Payment processing is handled securely through Shopify Payments. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of a published security policy or incident response contacts limits transparency. There is no evidence of a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file. Overall, the security posture is robust for an e-commerce site but could be improved with additional transparency and formal policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and compliance.
  2. Add incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  4. Enhance contact information by providing verified company emails and phone numbers.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and integrations for security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Shopify platform, utilizing Shopify Liquid templates and hosted on Shopify's CDN infrastructure, ensuring high availability and performance. It integrates modern analytics and marketing tools including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, Mailchimp, and LiveChat, enabling comprehensive user tracking and customer engagement. The site uses hCaptcha for form security and implements accessibility features and responsive design for mobile users. Performance is optimized with deferred script loading and preloading of fonts. The technical implementation is modern and aligns with best practices for e-commerce sites, though continuous monitoring of third-party dependencies is advised to mitigate potential risks.
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.
