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.

    • 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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

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 · found on this site
  • 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 primarily in the manufacturing sector with a focus on chemical products and intermediates. Their business model revolves around production and supply of specialized chemical reagents and coatings, serving both domestic and international markets. The website indicates a medium-sized enterprise with a well-established presence in Latvia. The company leverages certifications and quality management systems as competitive advantages. The partnership ecosystem includes related domains such as biolarpaint.lv and local municipal sites. The company’s digital presence is informative but lacks advanced marketing or analytics integrations.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and includes a CSRF token, indicating basic security awareness. However, no HTTP security headers were detected, and there is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information. The absence of a security.txt file and incident contacts suggests limited formal security communication channels. The site uses multiple third-party JavaScript libraries, which should be regularly audited for vulnerabilities. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved by implementing additional headers, stronger SSL configurations, and formal incident response disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Publish a security.txt file and provide clear incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimizations to improve user experience and search visibility.
  5. Consider adding a terms of service page to clarify user and business legal relationships.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern front-end stack including jQuery, Bootstrap 4, and various UI enhancement libraries such as Slick Slider and AOS. It uses Google Fonts and integrates Google Maps API. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed and accessibility. No CMS or hosting provider information was detected. The site lacks advanced analytics or marketing tools, indicating a focus on informational content rather than aggressive digital marketing.
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.
