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

8 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

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  2. Security headers

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 company operates a focused online retail business selling Italian wool yarn, leveraging a niche market with worldwide shipping. The business model is direct-to-consumer e-commerce with an emphasis on quality and variety of yarn products. The presence of social media channels and a blog indicates efforts to engage the knitting community and build brand loyalty. The website's content and structure support easy product discovery and purchase, enhancing customer experience. The lack of detailed corporate information such as founding year or parent company suggests a small to medium-sized independent business. The use of Bitrix CMS and integrated marketing tools reflects a moderate level of digital maturity.

Security posture

The website maintains a baseline security posture with HTTPS encryption and cookie consent mechanisms. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. There is no evidence of a dedicated security policy or incident response contact channels, which are important for compliance and trust. The use of third-party scripts like Tawk.to and Google Tag Manager introduces potential risk vectors that require regular monitoring. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small e-commerce site but could benefit from enhanced security controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Publish a detailed security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Add a terms of service page to clarify user rights and obligations.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user inclusivity.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Bitrix CMS platform, utilizing jQuery and Swiper.js for UI interactions and sliders. It integrates third-party services such as Tawk.to for live chat and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. The site is mobile-responsive with good SEO meta tags and Open Graph data for social sharing. Performance is moderate, with lazy loading implemented for images. The technical stack is modern but relies on some legacy libraries like jQuery. There is no direct information about hosting providers or CDN usage. The site could improve by adopting more modern JavaScript frameworks and enhancing accessibility compliance.
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.
