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

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

  2. 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

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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 business positions itself as a niche retailer focusing on Latvian cultural heritage products, leveraging e-commerce to reach both local and international customers. Its competitive advantage lies in authentic, locally made products and a curated product range. The business model is direct-to-consumer online retail with additional marketing through social media channels. The presence of a partner site and a credited web development company indicates a supportive partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators include a new collection and sales promotions. The company maintains clear contact information and GDPR compliance, enhancing customer trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS and GDPR cookie consent implemented. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and lack of published security or incident response policies suggest areas for enhancement. The site does not provide a security.txt file or dedicated vulnerability disclosure channel, which could improve transparency and security culture. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small retail business but could benefit from formalized policies and technical hardening.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a security policy and incident response plan on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users and comply with standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality. It uses Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for client-side scripting. The site integrates Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel for tracking and marketing. Performance is moderate with some optimization opportunities. The site is mobile-friendly and SEO optimized with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). No hosting provider details were identified from the content. The technical implementation is solid for a small business but could be improved with enhanced security headers and performance tuning.
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.
