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

The website www.trstd.com serves as a multilingual country selection landing page for Trusted Shops, a European e-commerce trust and review platform. It offers buyer protection and shop reviews targeted at European consumers. The site is professionally designed with clear navigation and localized country-specific links. However, the technical infrastructure is basic, relying on static HTML and SVG graphics without visible CMS or advanced frameworks. Security posture is weak due to lack of HTTPS enforcement confirmation, missing security headers, and absence of privacy or cookie policies. The WHOIS data is missing or unavailable, which raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy despite the professional appearance. Overall, the site is functional and trustworthy in content but requires improvements in security and compliance documentation.

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 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 Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • 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

Trusted Shops positions itself as a key player in the European e-commerce trust ecosystem, providing buyer protection and authentic shop reviews. The business model focuses on building consumer confidence through verified reviews and protection services. The target audience is European online shoppers across multiple countries, as evidenced by localized country links. The lack of detailed business registration or contact information on this landing page limits transparency. The partnership with the main trustedshops.de domain indicates a broader corporate structure. Growth potential lies in expanding trust services and increasing market penetration in European countries.

Security posture

The current security posture is minimal. The site lacks visible HTTPS enforcement confirmation in the provided data, no security headers are detected, and no privacy or cookie policies are present. There are no forms or data collection points on this landing page, reducing immediate data exposure risks. The absence of WHOIS data is a significant concern, potentially indicating privacy protection or registration issues. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not found. To improve security maturity, the site should implement HTTPS, add security headers, publish privacy and cookie policies, and provide clear contact and incident response information.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with strict transport security and verify SSL configuration.
  2. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance statements.
  3. Publish terms of service and incident response contact information.
  4. Deploy security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Clarify domain registration details and ensure WHOIS data is accurate and publicly available.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses clean, modern HTML5 and CSS3 with inline SVG graphics for logos and flags, ensuring good visual quality and scalability. The site is mobile responsive and has good navigation clarity. However, no CMS or advanced frameworks are detected, indicating a static or simple site architecture. No external scripts, analytics, or tracking technologies are present in the provided HTML, which reduces complexity but also limits marketing and user behavior insights. Performance is moderate, with no explicit optimization indicators. Accessibility features are basic, with room for improvement in ARIA roles and semantic markup.
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.
