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

Brandmart is a Latvian retail company specializing in discounted brand name American and European clothing for women, men, and children. The company operates physical stores in Riga and maintains an online presence showcasing new inventory weekly. Their market position focuses on providing authentic designer styles at affordable prices, targeting a broad family audience. Technically, the website is modern, mobile-optimized, and fast-loading, utilizing JavaScript modules and Google Fonts, with embedded Google Maps for store locations. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced, but lacks advanced security headers and cookie consent mechanisms. WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, but the website's content and contact information suggest legitimacy. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but could improve privacy 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

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

    • 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

  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 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

Brandmart holds a niche in the Latvian retail fashion market by offering discounted brand name apparel. Their competitive advantage lies in weekly inventory refreshes and a wide selection for the entire family. The business model combines physical retail with an informative online catalog, supporting customer engagement via social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. Growth indicators include active social media and multiple store locations. The company appears to operate independently without visible parent or subsidiary relationships. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to enhance digital marketing and privacy compliance to strengthen customer trust and regulatory adherence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is properly implemented, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces protection against common web attacks. No incident response or security policy information is published, limiting transparency. There are no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data in the HTML content. Privacy compliance is partial, with a privacy policy present but no cookie consent mechanism. The lack of vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files indicates room for improvement in security culture and incident readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance and user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to build trust and readiness for security events.
  4. Regularly review and update WHOIS information to ensure transparency and domain legitimacy.
  5. Enhance analytics and marketing tools with privacy-respecting configurations to balance business intelligence and user privacy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern web technologies including ES modules for JavaScript, CSS for styling, and Google Fonts for typography. It features responsive design optimized for mobile devices and includes embedded Google Maps for store location visualization. The site loads quickly and has a clear navigation structure. No CMS or hosting provider information is explicitly detected. There is no evidence of third-party analytics or tracking scripts in the provided HTML. The technical implementation is solid but could benefit from additional security and privacy features to reduce technical debt and improve compliance.
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.
