Risk levelHigh

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

Elbest Kaubandus OU Latvijas filiāle operates the website elbest.lv, serving as a specialized supplier of industrial and laboratory furniture, including technical furniture, warehouse equipment, ESD products, and office supplies primarily targeting B2B customers in Latvia. The company is an official representative of the Treston brand in Latvia, positioning itself as a niche player in the manufacturing and retail sectors. The website offers product catalogs, contact information, and online ordering capabilities, supporting a business model focused on direct sales and customer support. Technically, the website employs a traditional tech stack including jQuery 1.10.2, Lightbox, FontAwesome, Google Fonts, and integrates third-party services such as Mailchimp for marketing and CookieYes for cookie consent management. The site is accessible, with responsive design elements, though mobile optimization and accessibility features are basic. SEO practices are present but could be enhanced. The website uses HTTPS, but no explicit security headers were detected, and the use of outdated JavaScript libraries introduces potential security risks. From a security and compliance perspective, the site includes privacy and cookie policies consistent with GDPR requirements, and contact information is clearly provided. However, no explicit security policy, incident response information, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms were found. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain trust verification. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved by updating libraries, adding security headers, and publishing security policies. The overall risk assessment indicates a legitimate business with moderate digital maturity and security posture. Strategic recommendations include modernizing the tech stack, enhancing security headers and policies, and improving privacy compliance transparency to strengthen trust and reduce risk exposure.

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.

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

Elbest Kaubandus OU Latvijas filiāle is positioned as a specialized supplier in the Latvian market for industrial and laboratory furniture and related products. Its competitive advantage lies in official brand partnerships (notably Treston) and a focused product catalog serving B2B clients such as warehouses, manufacturing plants, and offices. The business model revolves around direct sales supported by an online catalog and contact channels. Revenue streams likely derive from product sales and possibly consulting or customization services. The company targets industrial and commercial customers requiring ergonomic and technical furniture solutions. Growth indicators include multilingual site support (Latvian, English, Estonian) and integration with partner configurators. The partnership ecosystem includes Treston, Global Stole, and others, enhancing product offerings and market reach. Operationally, the company maintains a physical presence in Riga with clear contact details, supporting customer trust and service.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent mechanisms are implemented, indicating awareness of privacy regulations. However, the use of an outdated jQuery version (1.10.2) introduces known vulnerabilities that could be exploited. No security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), or X-Frame-Options were detected, which are important for mitigating common web attacks. The absence of explicit security or incident response policies reduces transparency and preparedness. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found, limiting external reporting channels. Data protection officer contact or GDPR-specific compliance details are not evident. Overall, while basic security practices are in place, significant improvements are needed to align with best practices and regulatory expectations.

Recommendations

  1. Update all JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to the latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish explicit security and incident response policies on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  4. Enhance privacy compliance by detailing GDPR measures and appointing or providing contact for a Data Protection Officer if applicable.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and remediate vulnerabilities proactively.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a legacy JavaScript stack with jQuery 1.10.2 and Lightbox 2.6, which are outdated and may pose security risks. FontAwesome 4.7 and Google Fonts are used for UI styling. CookieYes manages cookie consent, and Mailchimp scripts are integrated for marketing automation. The site lacks modern frontend frameworks or CMS indicators, suggesting a custom or legacy-built platform. Performance is moderate with no explicit optimization detected. Mobile optimization is basic, with responsive fonts and layout but no advanced adaptive features. Accessibility features are minimal. SEO is basic with meta description and keywords but no Open Graph or JSON-LD structured data found. Hosting provider and server details are not disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but dated, with opportunities for modernization and performance improvements.
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.
