wardy is a digital loyalty stamp card platform primarily targeting businesses and end users in Austria and Germany. The company offers a mobile app that replaces traditional paper stamp cards with a digital solution, enabling businesses to engage customers through innovative marketing and real-time analytics. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence, with multilingual support and clear calls to action for both users and businesses. The platform has established a community of over 25,000 users and more than 200 business locations, indicating a growing market presence. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with Elementor and optimized using WP Rocket. It employs modern web technologies and plugins to ensure good performance and SEO optimization. The site is mobile-friendly and includes accessibility considerations, although some improvements could be made. Security measures include HTTPS enforcement, reCAPTCHA v3 on forms, and cookie consent mechanisms, but there is room for enhancement in DNS security and HTTP headers. From a security standpoint, the site demonstrates a moderate security posture with no critical vulnerabilities detected. However, the absence of DNSSEC and some missing security headers suggest opportunities for strengthening defenses. Privacy compliance is well addressed with comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, aligning with GDPR requirements. The WHOIS data is consistent with the business claims, showing a legitimate domain registration and no privacy protection masking. Overall, wardy presents a credible and professional digital service with a solid technical foundation and good privacy practices. Strategic improvements in security headers, DNSSEC, and incident response transparency would further enhance trust and resilience.

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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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 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

  3. 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

wardy operates in the technology sector, focusing on digital customer engagement through a loyalty app. Its business model leverages a platform approach connecting businesses and consumers, generating value via app usage and marketing services. The company benefits from a growing user base and partnerships with over 200 locations, indicating competitive positioning in the regional market. The presence of partner logos and testimonials supports credibility and community trust. Revenue streams likely include subscription or service fees from businesses using the platform. The multilingual website and app availability on iOS and Android expand market reach. Strategic partnerships and marketing tools enhance customer acquisition and retention.

Security posture

The website maintains a good security baseline with HTTPS and reCAPTCHA integration. Cookie consent and GDPR-compliant privacy policies demonstrate awareness of data protection obligations. However, the lack of DNSSEC and incomplete HTTP security headers represent moderate risks that could be exploited in DNS spoofing or clickjacking attacks. No explicit security policy or incident response contacts are published, which limits transparency and preparedness communication. The use of inline scripts and dynamic code loading may pose CSP challenges. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small technology business but should be enhanced to meet higher assurance levels.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS integrity and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve transparency.
  3. Add missing HTTP security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate clickjacking and MIME sniffing risks.
  4. Review and minimize inline JavaScript usage to reduce Content Security Policy violations and improve security.
  5. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to enhance trust and preparedness.

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.
