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

BEERA Bar & Shop is a small local business based in Riga, Latvia, specializing in retail and bar services for local and international craft beers. The company operates both a physical bar where customers can taste beers and an online presence for ordering via email. The business is positioned as a niche player in the craft beer market, targeting mature audiences interested in specialty beers. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using Elementor and Yoast SEO, with integrations for analytics and menu embedding. The site is mobile optimized and provides clear contact information and social media links. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and no visible sensitive data exposure, though security headers are not explicitly detected. Privacy and cookie policies are present with consent mechanisms, supporting GDPR compliance. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain registration verification. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy for its business scope, with room for security and compliance improvements.

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

8 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

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. 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';…

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 operates in the retail and hospitality sectors, focusing on craft beer sales and bar experiences. Its business model relies on direct sales and customer engagement through a physical location and online ordering by email. The presence of a special alcohol retail license and company registration number indicates legitimate operations. The website's integration with Untappd API and social media presence suggests active marketing and community engagement. The partnership with unclebrew.com, indicated by email usage, may reflect supply chain or operational collaboration. Growth potential exists in expanding online ordering and enhancing digital marketing. The company targets local and international craft beer enthusiasts, positioning itself as a specialized retailer and bar in Riga.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data in the HTML content. Use of asynchronous loading for analytics and menu scripts reduces performance impact. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), X-Frame-Options, and HSTS reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are found, indicating limited formal security governance. Privacy compliance is basic with cookie consent and privacy policy present, but no detailed data protection officer or incident response information is provided. The site includes an age verification popup to comply with alcohol sales regulations. Recommendations include implementing security headers, formalizing security policies, and maintaining up-to-date software versions.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish detailed terms of service and security policy pages to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security contact to facilitate responsible reporting and incident response.
  4. Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate risks from outdated software.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance by appointing a Data Protection Officer or providing clear contact details for data protection inquiries.

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 third-party services such as Microsoft Clarity for analytics and Untappd API for menu embedding, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. The site is mobile responsive and uses asynchronous script loading to optimize performance. However, no explicit hosting provider information is detected. The site could benefit from improved accessibility features and performance tuning. The lack of security headers and limited formal security policies represent technical risks that should be addressed to protect business operations and customer data.
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.
