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

2 findings 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.

    • 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

vidaXL operates in the competitive online retail sector, focusing on affordable furniture and home products. Its business model is direct-to-consumer e-commerce, supported by a robust multi-country platform. The company benefits from a strong brand presence and extensive product offerings, with a clear focus on price competitiveness. The use of advanced marketing and analytics tools suggests a data-driven approach to customer engagement and conversion optimization. While direct contact information is not prominently displayed, the presence of comprehensive privacy and cookie policies supports regulatory compliance. The lack of visible WHOIS data is typical for privacy-conscious commercial entities. The company appears well-positioned in the European retail market with a scalable digital infrastructure.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with HTTPS, modern security headers, and error handling mechanisms that report issues to Datadog RUM. The integration of cookie consent tools ensures compliance with privacy regulations. However, the absence of a public security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents gaps in transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The security score is good but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security and incident response information and implementing a security.txt file. Overall, the security posture is appropriate for a large e-commerce platform but has room for improvement in policy transparency and incident management.

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 to meet higher standards for users with disabilities.
  5. Increase visibility of company contact information to improve trust and customer support.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Salesforce Commerce Cloud, a robust e-commerce platform, and uses a variety of modern technologies including Google Tag Manager, OneTrust for consent management, Datadog RUM for monitoring, and Hotjar for user behavior analytics. The site loads multiple deferred and asynchronous scripts to optimize performance. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and viewport meta tags. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, canonical links, and hreflang attributes for internationalization. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The technical stack is mature and well-integrated, supporting a scalable and performant e-commerce experience. No critical technical issues were detected in the content provided.
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.
