Security score

Risk levelMedium

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

AUGUSTS STUDIO operates a professionally designed e-commerce website focused on exclusive tableware and interior decor products, targeting consumers interested in elegant and high-quality home accessories. The website is built on the Shopify platform, leveraging modern technologies and third-party integrations for analytics, payment, and multilingual support. The business appears to be a small retail operation based in Latvia with a niche market position. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and use of CAPTCHA on forms, but lacks explicit security policies and vulnerability disclosures. Privacy compliance is addressed with cookie consent mechanisms and a privacy policy, though contact information is limited to a contact form. Overall, the website is trustworthy and well-structured, with room for improvement in security transparency and accessibility.

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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

  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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • 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 company targets a niche market segment focusing on exclusive and elegant tableware and interior decor, offering a curated product range and masterclasses. The business model is direct-to-consumer e-commerce via Shopify, with multilingual support for Latvian and English audiences. The presence of social media links and marketing pixels indicates active digital marketing efforts. The partnership with payment and shipping service providers like Maksekeskus.ee supports operational efficiency. The company maintains a consistent brand image and good content quality, positioning itself as a specialized retailer in the Latvian market.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses hCaptcha for form protection, indicating a baseline security posture. However, it lacks visible advanced security headers and does not publish a security policy or incident response contacts, which are important for transparency and trust. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present, limiting external security engagement. The use of multiple third-party scripts requires ongoing monitoring to mitigate supply chain risks. Overall, the security posture is moderate but can be enhanced by adopting best practices and publishing clear security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve protection against common web attacks.
  3. Create and maintain a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet WCAG standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and integrations to minimize security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Shopify using the Stiletto theme version 3.3.0, incorporating modern web technologies including JavaScript, CSS, and HTML5. It integrates multiple third-party services such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, YouTube API, and payment/shipping solutions. The site is multilingual with Latvian as primary and English as secondary language, supported by Translation Lab. Performance is moderate with lazy loading and responsive design elements. Hosting is via Shopify CDN with domain registered through GoDaddy. The technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced security headers and improved 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.
