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

Viviscal operates a professional e-commerce website focused on hair growth vitamins and hair care products, targeting consumers seeking solutions for thicker, fuller hair. The site is built on the Shopify platform, leveraging a modern tech stack including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, TikTok Pixel, Hotjar, Klaviyo, and Yotpo for marketing, analytics, and customer engagement. The website demonstrates good digital maturity with fast performance, mobile optimization, and accessibility features. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers present, though there is room for improvement in publishing explicit security policies and incident response contacts. Privacy compliance is well addressed with comprehensive privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. The WHOIS data is unavailable or protected, which slightly reduces transparency but does not detract significantly from the site's legitimacy given the professional presentation and trust signals. Overall, Viviscal presents a credible and secure online presence with a solid foundation for business growth and customer trust.

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

1 finding 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 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

Viviscal is positioned as a medium-sized retail business specializing in health and beauty supplements, specifically hair growth vitamins and hair care products. The business model is direct-to-consumer e-commerce, leveraging Shopify's platform for sales and customer management. The company targets consumers concerned with hair health and aesthetics, offering products that promote hair thickness and fullness. The presence of multiple marketing and analytics tools indicates a data-driven approach to customer acquisition and retention. The brand maintains consistent branding and trust indicators such as SSL, privacy policies, and customer reviews. No parent company or subsidiaries were identified from the website content. The company appears to have a stable market position within its niche, supported by a professional online storefront and active marketing efforts.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and a comprehensive set of security headers including Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The site uses cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR, enhancing privacy protections. However, there is no publicly available security policy or incident response contact information, which are recommended best practices for transparency and readiness. The use of multiple third-party scripts introduces potential risk vectors, necessitating regular security audits. Overall, the security posture is strong but could be enhanced by publishing explicit security policies and establishing clear incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and controls.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  3. Implement and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and integrations for security vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance contact information availability with verified company emails and phone numbers for customer and security inquiries.

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.
