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

Baltic Cosmetics is an e-commerce retailer specializing in premium hand and hair care cosmetics, targeting consumers in the Baltic region. The website is built on the Shopify platform, leveraging modern web technologies and integrated marketing analytics such as Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel. The site demonstrates good design quality, mobile optimization, and clear navigation, supporting a positive user experience. However, the absence of WHOIS data limits the ability to fully verify domain legitimacy. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS and form protection via hCaptcha, but could be enhanced by adding explicit security headers and publishing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the site is safe for general audiences and operates within a niche cosmetics market.

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.

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

Baltic Cosmetics operates as a small-sized e-commerce business focused on cosmetics for hair, hands, nails, and feet. The company leverages Shopify's infrastructure for hosting and payment processing, indicating a streamlined business model with low technical overhead. The presence of multiple product categories and brands suggests a diversified product offering. Social media presence on major platforms supports marketing efforts. Lack of explicit contact information and privacy documentation may impact customer trust and regulatory compliance. The business appears positioned as a regional niche player with potential for growth through enhanced transparency and security practices.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and uses hCaptcha to protect forms, indicating a baseline security posture. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents an area for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of a published privacy policy, cookie consent mechanism, and incident response contacts suggests gaps in compliance and incident readiness. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, suitable for a small e-commerce site but requiring enhancements to meet higher standards and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements and consent mechanisms.
  2. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer support and security incident reporting.
  4. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Improve accessibility features to comply with standards and enhance user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Shopify platform, utilizing modern JavaScript, CSS, and HTML5 technologies. It integrates third-party analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel. The site uses CDN hosting via Shopify, contributing to moderate performance and good mobile responsiveness. The technical implementation is solid with no broken elements detected. However, the site lacks some advanced security configurations and accessibility features. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a functional and professional e-commerce experience with room for security and compliance improvements.
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.
