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 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

    • 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. 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

The business targets fishing enthusiasts and customers in Latvia, offering bait and fishing supplies through both physical and online channels. The market position is local and niche, focusing on retail sales. The business model is straightforward retail with an e-commerce component. The website content and structure support customer engagement and sales, but lack comprehensive legal and security documentation such as privacy and terms of service pages. The presence of a Facebook page suggests some social media engagement. The company appears to be a small-sized entity without visible parent or subsidiary relationships.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enabled and Google reCAPTCHA protecting the contact form, reducing spam and abuse risks. However, the absence of security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options is a gap that could be exploited. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of explicit security or incident response policies limits the overall security maturity. Compliance with GDPR is partially indicated by cookie consent but lacks formal privacy documentation. The site would benefit from enhanced security policies and headers to improve resilience and trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Establish an incident response contact channel (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email) and publish related policies.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct audits to improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality. It uses WPBakery Page Builder for layout and Yoast SEO for search engine optimization, indicating a well-supported technical stack. Google Maps API integration and Google reCAPTCHA enhance user experience and security. Performance is moderate with some optimization via caching and CDN usage implied by pagespeed references. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO practices are evident through meta tags and structured data. However, accessibility is basic and could be improved. The hosting provider is Namecheap, a reputable registrar and hosting provider. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid for a small retail business but has room for modernization and security hardening.
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.
