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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

Eleco operates in the energy and recycling sector, focusing on electronic waste management and metal scrap trading. Its business model revolves around providing free utilization services to residential and commercial customers in Latvia, supported by a strong local presence and over two decades of operational history. The company targets environmentally conscious consumers and businesses seeking responsible disposal of electronic devices. The partnership with www.recycling.lv indicates a broader network in metal scrap processing. Revenue streams likely include service fees for specialized waste handling and metal scrap sales. The website's content and structure suggest a medium-sized enterprise with consistent branding and a focus on customer engagement through multiple contact channels.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with enforced HTTPS, use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms, and implementation of cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR. However, explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not evident, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The absence of a security.txt file or dedicated incident response contact limits transparency in vulnerability handling. Overall, the security maturity is moderate with room for improvement in header policies and incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page including security.txt to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all users.
  5. Expand privacy and cookie policies with detailed data retention and processing information to ensure full GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using a combination of popular plugins such as Yoast SEO, WPBakery Page Builder, Slider Revolution, and Contact Form 7. It uses jQuery and Google services for analytics and tag management. Hosting is likely provided by SiteGround, inferred from the SiteGround Optimizer plugin usage. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata and structured data in JSON-LD format. Performance is moderate, with some optimization possible. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from enhanced security headers and accessibility improvements. No critical technical debt or outdated libraries were detected.
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.
