Risk levelMedium

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

The website represents a small local business named Updeķi A, SIA, operating a meat shop and café called "Dārzā" in Ventspils, Latvia. The business focuses on selling fresh Latvian pork, smoked meat products, local delicacies, and providing café and banquet services. The website is multilingual, primarily in Latvian, with options for Russian, English, and Lithuanian, targeting local consumers and visitors interested in quality local food products. The business model combines physical retail with an online product catalog, emphasizing local sourcing and community engagement. Technically, the website is built on the Multiscreensite platform using modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Skrollr for animations, integrates Ecwid for e-commerce functionality, and uses Google Maps and Google Tag Manager for location and analytics. The site employs HTTPS with a service worker for progressive web app features, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Performance and mobile optimization are good, though accessibility features are basic. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and has cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks visible security headers and explicit security or incident response policies. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. WHOIS data was unavailable due to query limits, limiting domain registration trust analysis. Overall, the site appears legitimate and professionally maintained with room for security enhancements. The overall risk is low given the nature of the business and website content, but improvements in security headers, formal security policies, and WHOIS transparency would strengthen trust and compliance posture.

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.

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.

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

Updeķi A, SIA operates in the retail and hospitality sectors, focusing on fresh meat products and café services in Ventspils, Latvia. The company leverages local partnerships with Latvian meat producers and home producers, positioning itself as a trusted local provider of quality food products. The business has a physical presence complemented by an online product catalog, indicating a hybrid retail model. The website's multilingual support suggests an intent to serve a broader regional audience including Russian, English, and Lithuanian speakers. The company appears small-sized with a localized market focus. The presence of social media and Google My Business links supports community engagement and marketing efforts. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified. The business benefits from consistent branding and clear contact information, enhancing customer trust and accessibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security posture. HTTPS is enforced, and a service worker is registered, which is positive for secure and modern web delivery. Cookie consent is implemented, indicating awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection reduces defense-in-depth. No forms were detected on the homepage, limiting attack surface, but inner pages were not analyzed. No incident response or security policy pages were found, which could be improved for transparency and preparedness. WHOIS data is unavailable, which limits domain trust verification. Overall, the site is secure for its business scope but would benefit from enhanced security headers, formal policies, and regular security audits.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to improve browser security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information on the website to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  3. Ensure all third-party scripts and libraries are regularly updated to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Expand accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Obtain and publish WHOIS domain registration details or use a registrar that provides transparent data to improve trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Multiscreensite platform with a modern JavaScript stack including jQuery 3.7.0 and Skrollr for animations. It integrates Ecwid for e-commerce capabilities and Google services for maps and analytics. The site uses a CDN for hosting static assets, contributing to moderate performance. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design and viewport settings. Accessibility is basic, with room for improvement in semantic markup and ARIA roles. SEO is supported by meta tags, Open Graph, and alternate hreflang links for multilingual support. The site uses service workers for PWA features, indicating a modern approach. However, no advanced frameworks or CMS beyond the platform were detected. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid for a small business website but could be enhanced with improved accessibility and security practices.
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.
