Risk levelHigh

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

AKVA AGRO operates the website khancaviar.eu, specializing in the production and sale of premium seafood delicacies, including black and red caviar and various fish species such as salmon and sturgeon. Founded in 2004 and based in Latvia, the company emphasizes sustainable aquaculture practices certified by CITES and HACCP, ensuring compliance with international food safety standards. The website serves as an e-commerce platform targeting seafood connoisseurs and restaurants, offering detailed product categories and multilingual support in Latvian, Russian, and English. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with WooCommerce for e-commerce capabilities, enhanced by popular plugins like Yoast SEO, WPBakery Page Builder, and Slider Revolution. The site demonstrates moderate performance with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is well-implemented with comprehensive meta tags and structured data. Security is adequate with HTTPS enforced, though the absence of security headers and cookie consent mechanisms indicates room for improvement. From a security perspective, the site shows no signs of vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, it lacks formal incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies, which are recommended for enhanced trust and compliance. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with a privacy policy present and GDPR considerations, but cookie consent is missing. Overall, the site presents a professional and trustworthy digital presence aligned with the company's niche market. The overall risk is low, with recommendations focusing on strengthening security headers, implementing cookie consent, and publishing security policies to improve compliance and user trust. The domain registration is consistent with the business profile, registered through a reputable registrar, and no suspicious patterns were detected.

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

10 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

  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

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

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

AKVA AGRO occupies a niche market segment specializing in sustainable aquaculture and premium seafood products, particularly caviar. Their competitive advantage lies in certified production processes (CITES, HACCP) and direct e-commerce sales, targeting both retail consumers and restaurant clients. The business model combines product cultivation with online sales, supported by multilingual content to reach broader markets. Growth indicators include a well-maintained website with modern e-commerce features and active social media presence on Facebook. The partnership ecosystem is limited but includes reputable technology providers within the WordPress ecosystem. Strategic observations suggest focusing on expanding digital marketing, enhancing compliance, and possibly developing incident response capabilities to strengthen market position.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerabilities or malware were detected in the HTML content. Compliance gaps include missing cookie consent mechanisms and absence of published incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies. Data protection practices are partially implemented with a privacy policy present. Incident response readiness appears minimal due to lack of contact channels for security issues. The security culture is implied by use of reputable plugins and certifications but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) to improve protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner/mechanism to comply fully with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish an incident response policy and provide dedicated contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails) for vulnerability reporting.
  4. Regularly audit and update all WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate risks from outdated software.
  5. Consider creating and publishing a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality, supported by widely used plugins such as Yoast SEO and WPBakery Page Builder. The technology stack includes jQuery, Select2, MediaElement.js, and Owl Carousel, indicating a reliance on established JavaScript libraries. Performance is moderate with no critical errors detected, and the site is mobile optimized with responsive design elements. SEO is well addressed through meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Technical risks include potential plugin vulnerabilities if not regularly updated and lack of advanced security headers. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and implement enhanced privacy controls to align with best practices.
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.
