Security score

49/100

Risk levelHigh

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

Baltic Restaurants is a leading food service and catering company operating primarily in Latvia and Estonia, serving over 100,000 customers daily across more than 310 locations including lunch restaurants, cafes, bistros, and event catering. With over 1400 professional employees, the company has established a strong market position in educational institutions, companies, and government entities in the Baltic region. The website is built on WordPress using Elementor and Yoast SEO, demonstrating a moderate to good level of digital maturity with multilingual support and cookie consent mechanisms in place. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent implemented, but lacks advanced security headers and DNSSEC. Privacy compliance is partial due to missing privacy policy and terms of service pages. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and well-branded, but could improve in compliance and security transparency.

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

7 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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 Restaurants operates in the hospitality sector with a comprehensive service portfolio including employee meal subsidies, school and kindergarten catering, delivery, and franchise operations such as Subway. The company benefits from a large workforce and extensive geographic coverage, positioning it as a market leader in the Baltic catering industry. Partnerships with several related food service brands enhance its ecosystem. The business model focuses on B2B and institutional catering, targeting educational, corporate, and government clients. The domain age and WHOIS data support the company's established presence since 2011. Growth indicators include a large number of service locations and professional staff. The website reflects a mature digital presence but lacks some compliance documentation.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, ensuring encrypted communications. Cookie consent is actively managed via a third-party service, supporting GDPR compliance efforts. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents a missed opportunity to harden the site against common web attacks. DNSSEC is not enabled, which could improve DNS security. No security policy or incident response contact information is published, limiting transparency for security issues. No known vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but can be enhanced with additional best practices and documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement standard security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against web vulnerabilities.
  3. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to strengthen DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  4. Create and publish a security policy and incident response contact details to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using Elementor for page building and Yoast SEO for search engine optimization. It integrates Google Analytics via the ExactMetrics plugin for user tracking and employs cookie-script.com for cookie consent management. The site is multilingual, supporting Latvian, English, and Estonian languages. Performance is moderate with standard use of JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Swiper.js for UI components. The site is mobile optimized and has good navigation clarity. However, there is room for improvement in accessibility features and advanced security configurations. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional user experience.
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.
