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

Whirlpool Greece operates as the official provider of household appliances for the Greek market, offering a broad portfolio of kitchen and laundry products. The website reflects a mature digital presence with consistent branding and multilingual support, targeting Greek consumers effectively. The business is part of the global Whirlpool Corporation, a well-established entity in the retail appliance sector. Technically, the website employs modern analytics and monitoring tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, OneTrust for cookie compliance, and New Relic for performance monitoring, indicating a good level of digital maturity. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforced, proper security headers, and no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. Privacy compliance is well addressed with comprehensive policies and consent mechanisms. However, the site lacks publicly available security policies and incident response information, which could be improved to enhance trust. Overall, the website is professional, secure, and compliant, supporting the company's market position effectively.

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

4 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.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  2. 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.

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

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

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

Whirlpool Greece benefits from the strong global brand of Whirlpool Corporation, leveraging its reputation and product range to serve the Greek retail market. The business model focuses on direct sales and customer support for household appliances. The website's integration with multiple regional Whirlpool domains suggests a coordinated international presence. Marketing and analytics tools are used extensively to track user interactions and optimize customer engagement. The company targets consumers seeking reliable and innovative home appliances. The absence of affiliate programs or suspicious domains indicates a focused retail strategy. Growth indicators include active user engagement tracking and comprehensive content tailored to the local market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enforced and multiple security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options. The use of OneTrust for cookie consent and New Relic for monitoring indicates attention to privacy and performance security. No exposed credentials, vulnerable libraries, or security policy disclosures were found, suggesting a controlled environment. However, the lack of a public security policy and incident response contacts is a gap in transparency and readiness. No vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file is present, which could be addressed to improve security culture and stakeholder trust. Overall, the site is secure but could enhance its security communication and incident preparedness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information for security issues.
  3. Implement a vulnerability disclosure program and publish a security.txt file.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.
  5. Regularly review and audit third-party scripts and integrations for security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including JavaScript frameworks, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, OneTrust for cookie management, and New Relic for performance monitoring. The CSS framework Foundation is used for responsive design. The site loads asynchronously and defers scripts to optimize performance. SEO is supported with proper meta tags and multilingual hreflang links. Hosting details are not explicitly disclosed but the site uses HTTPS with strong SSL configuration. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility. The technical implementation supports a good user experience and business goals but could benefit from enhanced accessibility and security transparency.
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.
