The digital maturity is evidenced by the use of advanced marketing and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager, Datadog, and Queue-it for traffic management. Security posture is solid with valid SSL certificates and HSTS enabled; however, the absence of modern TLS protocols and some missing security headers indicate room for improvement.

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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Google Ads

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

UNIQLO holds a strong market position as a leading global retailer in casual wear, targeting a broad consumer base. The business model combines physical retail with a robust online presence. The company benefits from a well-established parent company, Fast Retailing Co., Ltd., which supports its global operations. The website's integration with multiple marketing and analytics platforms suggests a data-driven approach to customer engagement and sales optimization. The lack of visible contact information and policy documents on the main page may indicate these are hosted elsewhere or require further inspection. The partnership ecosystem includes email protection services and domain management through AWS and Microsoft Outlook services.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate to good security maturity level with key strengths including a valid SSL certificate issued by Amazon, HSTS enforcement, and secure cookie attributes. The absence of TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3 support is a notable gap, potentially exposing the site to compatibility and security risks. Security headers such as X-Frame-Options are present but could be enhanced with Content Security Policy and other modern headers. No known vulnerabilities like Heartbleed or POODLE were detected. Incident response and security policy documentation were not found, which may hinder transparency and readiness. Compliance with GDPR and other regulations cannot be confirmed due to missing policy disclosures. Overall, the security posture is adequate but would benefit from improvements in protocol support, header implementation, and policy transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Enable TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 protocols to enhance encryption security and compatibility.
  2. Publish clear and accessible privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies to improve compliance and user trust.
  3. Implement Content Security Policy (CSP) and other security headers to mitigate cross-site scripting and clickjacking risks.
  4. Create and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and incident reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern JavaScript stack with React framework and uses multiple deferred scripts for performance optimization. Hosting is provided by Amazon AWS with Akamai CDN for content delivery. The site uses Google Tag Manager and Datadog for analytics and monitoring, indicating a mature approach to performance and user behavior tracking. The SSL certificate is valid but the lack of modern TLS protocol support is a technical debt that should be addressed. The site shows good mobile optimization and SEO practices but lacks some accessibility enhancements. No CMS was explicitly detected. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a fast and reliable user experience but requires updates to security protocols and header configurations.
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.
