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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

  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

      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"

  3. 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

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

WeatherTech holds a strong market position as a leading provider of automotive protection accessories. Its business model focuses on direct-to-consumer e-commerce sales with a broad product portfolio including interior vehicle protection, exterior accessories, pet and kids products, and garage/home mats. The company targets vehicle owners seeking durable, custom-fit solutions. The website's integration with personalization and analytics tools indicates a data-driven approach to customer engagement and marketing. Social media presence across major platforms supports brand awareness and customer interaction. The absence of public WHOIS data is typical for commercial entities prioritizing privacy. No suspicious domains or partners were identified, suggesting a focused and controlled partnership ecosystem.

Security posture

The website exhibits a strong security posture with HTTPS enabled and consent management for cookies via Osano. No critical security headers were explicitly found in the HTML but are likely implemented at the server level given the platform used. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive information were detected in the source code. The use of modern JavaScript libraries and analytics tools is balanced with privacy controls. However, explicit publication of security policies or incident response contacts is absent, which could be improved. Overall, the site follows best practices for secure e-commerce operations with room for enhanced transparency in security governance.

Recommendations

  1. Verify and explicitly implement security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against clickjacking and MIME sniffing.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact page to improve transparency and customer trust.
  3. Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability scans of third-party libraries and platform components.
  4. Enhance data retention policy disclosures related to analytics and tracking for improved privacy compliance.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving regulations and best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Salesforce Commerce Cloud, a robust e-commerce platform, and uses modern front-end technologies including Swiper.js for carousels and Typekit for fonts. Google Tag Manager and CQuotient are used for analytics and personalization, integrated with a consent management platform (Osano) to comply with privacy regulations. The site is mobile responsive with good accessibility features and SEO optimization. Performance is moderate, with deferred JavaScript loading and preloading of critical CSS. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and scalable online retail experience with opportunities to optimize security headers and performance further.
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.
