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

Baltic Woodland Cooperative is a Latvia-based company specializing in the production and worldwide distribution of high-quality wood shavings for animal bedding, primarily targeting horse owners and breeders. The company emphasizes sustainability, using zero-waste production processes and sourcing raw materials from local wood processing plants. Their product quality focuses on animal health benefits, such as dust-free and essential oil-rich bedding. The website is professionally designed, multilingual, and includes customer testimonials and comprehensive contact information, supporting a trustworthy market presence. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern plugins like WPBakery Page Builder and Slider Revolution. It uses Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, though performance is moderate. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled, but lacks explicit advanced security headers and formal security policies. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the site presents a legitimate and professional business with a good security baseline but could improve privacy compliance and security transparency. There are no indications of blocking or WAF interference, and the domain registration is consistent with the business claims, enhancing trustworthiness.

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. 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

      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

Baltic Woodland occupies a niche in the manufacturing and retail sector focused on sustainable animal bedding products. Their competitive advantage lies in their zero-waste production technology and exclusive use of Latvian mast pine wood. The business model includes direct sales in small and large volumes with worldwide shipping capabilities. The target customers are horse owners, breeders, and animal care professionals seeking high-quality, dust-free bedding. The company maintains an active social media presence and offers partnership opportunities for bulk orders, indicating growth orientation and market engagement. The website content and structure reflect a small-sized enterprise with consistent branding and trust signals such as testimonials and detailed contact information.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with mandatory HTTPS enabled and no visible exposure of sensitive data. However, it lacks explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. There is no visible security policy or incident response information, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy but no cookie consent mechanism, which may pose GDPR compliance risks. The use of popular WordPress plugins requires vigilant patching to mitigate vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business size but could be improved with formal policies and enhanced technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  2. Add explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt page to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to the latest versions to reduce vulnerability risks.

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.
