Low risk. 3 critical or high findings in Security headers and SSL/TLS.

Security score

79/100

Risk levelLow

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

Wirhelfen.shop is a charitable e-commerce platform affiliated with Caritas, focused on enabling easy, fast, and impactful donations alongside sustainable product sales. The website targets a general audience interested in social aid and sustainability, operating primarily in Austria. The platform leverages Magento 2 technology and integrates multiple marketing and analytics tools such as Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo, and New Relic for performance monitoring. The domain registration data aligns well with the business profile, indicating legitimacy and consistent geographic focus. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and domain transfer protections, though improvements are recommended in security headers and explicit policy disclosures. Privacy compliance is basic with a cookie consent mechanism but lacks a clearly accessible privacy policy. Overall, the website presents a professional and trustworthy front for its non-profit mission.

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

3 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 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. 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

The website operates in the non-profit sector with a business model combining e-commerce and charitable donations. It benefits from the strong brand association with Caritas, enhancing trust and market position. The platform offers key services including online donations, sustainable product sales, and regional/global aid projects. The target audience includes socially conscious consumers and donors primarily in Austria. The technical infrastructure supports scalability and marketing efforts, though the absence of explicit privacy and security policies may impact compliance perception. No subsidiaries or partner domains were identified beyond the Caritas affiliation. The website demonstrates moderate digital maturity with room for enhanced transparency and security governance.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Cloudflare DNS, providing a solid baseline for transport security. The domain status clientTransferProhibited adds protection against unauthorized transfers. However, DNSSEC is not enabled, and no security headers were detected in the provided data, indicating potential gaps in defense-in-depth. There is no evidence of published security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure programs, which are important for mature security posture and compliance with regulations like GDPR and NIS2. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analysis. Recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, implementing security headers, publishing security and incident response policies, and establishing a vulnerability disclosure process.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC to enhance domain name system security.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and terms of service policies accessible from the website footer.
  4. Establish and publish an incident response policy with clear contact channels.
  5. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  6. Improve accessibility compliance to enhance usability for all users.
  7. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools for privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Magento 2, a robust e-commerce platform, using RequireJS and jQuery for frontend modularity and interactivity. It integrates Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo for marketing automation, and New Relic for performance monitoring. Hosting is managed via RegistryGate GmbH with DNS through Cloudflare, providing reliable infrastructure. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and SEO practices. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) and Open Graph tags for enhanced search engine and social media integration. Some technical debt is indicated by missing DNSSEC and security headers. The presence of multiple third-party scripts necessitates ongoing security and privacy monitoring. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively but can benefit from security hardening and policy 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.
