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.

Priority findings

7 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.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • 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

  2. 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

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

The company leverages a multi-channel distribution model with physical showrooms and digital platforms, targeting retailers and consumers in Scandinavia. Their partnerships with heritage brands and presence in multiple cities indicate a strong market position and growth potential. The inclusion of B2B and B2C portals suggests diversified revenue streams. Social media integration and marketing tools support brand visibility and customer engagement. The business model emphasizes storytelling and iconic brand representation, catering to a niche audience valuing heritage and quality. Strategic partnerships with digital showroom providers and brand-specific websites enhance their ecosystem.

Security posture

Vernon's website employs HTTPS and cookie consent compliant with GDPR, indicating awareness of privacy and security regulations. The use of reputable WordPress plugins for GDPR and contact forms suggests basic security hygiene. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and security headers points to potential gaps in security maturity. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The site would benefit from enhanced security headers and a published vulnerability disclosure policy to improve trust and readiness. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be strengthened to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit and update all WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using a modern tech stack including PHP, jQuery, and various plugins for SEO, GDPR compliance, and content management. The site loads with moderate performance and is mobile optimized with responsive design. SEO is well addressed with Yoast SEO plugin and proper meta tags including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. The use of Google Fonts and external scripts is standard but should be monitored for performance impact. No hosting provider details were identified from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid with opportunities for performance tuning and enhanced security 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.
