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

Dateks.lv operates as a medium-sized e-commerce retailer based in Latvia, specializing in a broad range of technology and consumer electronics products. The website offers extensive product categories including computers, components, office equipment, and home appliances, targeting both consumers and businesses in the Baltic region. The company maintains partnerships with major technology brands such as Asus, Dell, Intel, Lenovo, and Nvidia, reinforcing its market position as a reputable regional retailer. From a technical perspective, the website employs modern tracking and marketing technologies including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and Cookiebot for consent management. However, the site suffers from slow performance due to a large page size and numerous resources. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility features are basic. The lack of a valid SSL certificate is a critical security shortfall, impacting user trust and data protection. Security posture reveals several vulnerabilities including missing DMARC, DNSSEC, and CAA records, and no domain protection locks, which collectively increase risk exposure. While HSTS is enabled, the absence of a valid SSL certificate and other security best practices lowers the overall security score. Privacy and cookie policies are present and GDPR compliant, with clear contact information provided. Overall, Dateks.lv presents a professional and content-rich e-commerce platform with moderate technical maturity and security posture. Strategic improvements in SSL/TLS implementation, email security, and DNS hardening are recommended to enhance trust and compliance.

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

9 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. Network security

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

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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 · 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

Dateks.lv holds a strong position in the Latvian retail technology market, leveraging partnerships with leading global brands to offer a comprehensive product catalog. The business model focuses on direct online sales with additional services such as product configurators and leasing options. The target audience includes both individual consumers and corporate clients seeking technology solutions. The company demonstrates growth potential through its extensive product range and regional presence. Payment options include major banks and credit cards, supported by a payment processing service (portal.klix.app). The website's content and navigation are well-structured, supporting customer engagement and conversion.

Security posture

The current security maturity level of Dateks.lv is moderate but with critical gaps. The absence of a valid SSL certificate undermines secure communications and user trust. Missing DMARC and DNSSEC configurations expose the domain to email spoofing and DNS attacks. The domain lacks protection locks, increasing risk of unauthorized changes. While HSTS is enabled and no major SSL vulnerabilities are detected, the lack of OCSP stapling and session resumption reduces SSL performance and security. Privacy policies and cookie consent mechanisms are implemented, supporting GDPR compliance. Incident response and security policy documentation are not found, indicating room for improvement in security governance and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS and secure user data.
  2. Implement DMARC, DNSSEC, and CAA DNS records to strengthen domain and email security.
  3. Enable domain protection locks to prevent unauthorized domain modifications.
  4. Configure OCSP stapling and session resumption to improve SSL performance and security.
  5. Develop and publish a formal security policy and incident response plan to enhance security governance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-heavy front end with integrations for analytics and marketing tools such as Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and Cookiebot. The site has a large number of resources (532) and a large page size (~820 KB), resulting in slow load times (~18.5 seconds), indicating potential for optimization. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility is basic. No CMS or hosting provider is explicitly detected. DNS records are configured with a valid SPF record but lack DNSSEC and CAA. SSL is not properly configured, which is a critical technical risk. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a rich e-commerce experience but requires improvements in security and performance.
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.
