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

Vilgain is a Swiss-based e-commerce company specializing in sports nutrition, functional foods, supplements, cosmetics, and related wellness products. The website targets health-conscious consumers primarily in the DACH region and Switzerland, offering a broad product catalog with multiple localized domains to serve various European markets. The business model focuses on direct online retail with value-added content such as expert articles and recipes, supported by strong customer trust signals including a Trusted Shops certification and a 100% money-back guarantee. Technically, the website employs modern JavaScript frameworks, lazy loading, responsive design, and integrates error monitoring via Sentry and analytics through Google Tag Manager. The site is well-optimized for mobile devices and SEO, though some accessibility features are basic. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and nonce attributes for scripts, but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. From a security and compliance perspective, the site does not expose sensitive data or vulnerable libraries in the analyzed content. However, it lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, consent mechanisms, and incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which are critical for GDPR compliance and user trust. No contact emails or phone numbers were found in the provided HTML, limiting direct communication channels. Overall, Vilgain presents a professional and trustworthy e-commerce platform with good technical infrastructure and strong business credibility. To enhance security and compliance, it should publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, implement consent mechanisms, and provide clear contact information and security incident procedures.

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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  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

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

Vilgain operates as a medium-sized e-commerce retailer in the health and wellness sector, focusing on sports nutrition and supplements. The company leverages multiple localized domains to capture regional markets across Europe, indicating a strategic expansion and localization approach. Its competitive advantages include a wide product range, expert content, and strong customer trust evidenced by high review ratings and Trusted Shops certification. Revenue streams are primarily from direct online sales, supported by promotional campaigns and free shipping offers. The target customer segments are health-conscious individuals, athletes, and consumers seeking functional foods and supplements. The partnership with Trusted Shops enhances credibility and customer confidence. The company shows signs of digital maturity with integrated analytics and error monitoring but could improve compliance and transparency to strengthen market position further.

Security posture

Vilgain demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced site-wide and integration of Sentry for real-time error monitoring, which helps in proactive issue detection. The use of nonce attributes on scripts indicates attention to Content Security Policy compliance. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection reduces the overall security hardening. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The lack of published security policies, incident response plans, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms represents a compliance gap, especially under GDPR and NIS2 frameworks. The site also lacks visible contact channels for security incidents, which could delay response times. Overall, the security posture is good but can be improved by implementing recommended headers and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements and consent mechanisms.
  2. Implement and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance site security.
  3. Provide explicit contact information including company emails and phone numbers for customer support and security incident reporting.
  4. Develop and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response plan to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to maintain and improve the security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based front-end with lazy loading for images and videos, improving performance and user experience. Integration of Sentry for error monitoring and Google Tag Manager for analytics indicates a mature technical infrastructure. The site is responsive and optimized for mobile devices, with good SEO practices including meta tags and Open Graph data. However, no explicit CMS or hosting provider information was detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Performance is moderate with potential for improvement in loading speed and accessibility. The technical debt appears low, but the absence of some security headers and privacy compliance features indicates areas for modernization and risk mitigation.
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.
