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

e-beauty.lv is a well-established Latvian informational portal dedicated to the beauty industry, providing news, event calendars, company and product catalogs, and professional training information. The site targets both beauty professionals and clients within Latvia, positioning itself as a key resource in the local beauty sector since 2007. The business model revolves around content provision, advertising, and event promotion. Technically, the website is built on Joomla CMS with a modern tech stack including Bootstrap and jQuery, hosted behind Cloudflare for DNS and CDN services. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices but lacks some advanced accessibility features. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled and Cloudflare protection, but missing important security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, which impacts GDPR compliance. Overall, the domain registration and WHOIS data align well with the business claims, indicating legitimacy and trustworthiness.

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. 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

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 portal serves as a comprehensive platform for the Latvian beauty industry, offering a wide range of services including news updates, seminar and event listings, and product catalogs. It maintains partnerships with related beauty and e-commerce sites, enhancing its ecosystem. The business benefits from a strong social media presence and consistent branding. Revenue streams likely include advertising and sponsored content. The company operates in a niche market with a medium-sized footprint and a loyal professional audience. Growth indicators include active event promotion and continuous content updates.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and Cloudflare DNS services, providing a baseline of security. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No incident response or security policy information is publicly available, indicating potential gaps in security governance. The lack of a cookie consent mechanism also poses compliance risks under GDPR. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved with standard best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Deploy a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  3. Regularly update Joomla CMS and all third-party extensions to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve trust and compliance.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users and meet legal standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Joomla CMS with multiple extensions such as SobiPro for content management and Bootstrap for responsive design. It loads various JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Mootools, and uses Google Fonts and Font Awesome for styling. Hosting is supported by Cloudflare DNS, likely providing CDN and DDoS protection. Performance is moderate with some room for optimization. The site is mobile-friendly and SEO optimized with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, the absence of modern security headers and cookie consent mechanisms indicates technical debt in security and privacy compliance areas.
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.
