Medium risk. 3 critical or high findings in Security headers and SSL/TLS.

Security score

70/100

Risk levelMedium

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

ELKO Latvija is a major IT product and solution distributor in Latvia, targeting business customers in the technology sector. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image with a focus on IT distribution services. The technical infrastructure includes modern tools such as Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot for analytics and cookie consent management, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks visible advanced security headers and published security policies. The absence of WHOIS data limits full domain legitimacy verification, but the website content and branding suggest a legitimate business. Overall, the site is well-structured, GDPR-aware, and uses extensive analytics and marketing tools, though improvements in security transparency and contact information visibility are recommended.

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

3 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 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. 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 Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

ELKO Latvija holds a strong market position as one of the largest IT distributors in Latvia, focusing on IT products and solutions. Their business model revolves around B2B distribution with a target audience of IT resellers and corporate clients. The website leverages partnerships with major analytics and advertising platforms such as Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Hotjar, indicating a mature marketing ecosystem. The lack of explicit privacy and terms of service pages is a gap in compliance documentation. No direct contact information or incident response channels are visible, which could impact customer trust and support responsiveness. The company appears to operate at a large scale within the Latvian technology sector.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism via Cookiebot, demonstrating awareness of privacy regulations and user consent requirements. However, no explicit security headers were detected in the provided data, and no published security or incident response policies were found. The absence of a security.txt or vulnerability disclosure program suggests limited transparency in security incident handling. The use of multiple third-party tracking and marketing tools increases the attack surface and privacy risk, though these are managed via consent. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced by implementing security headers, publishing security policies, and providing clear incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the homepage to improve compliance and user trust.
  3. Add a security.txt file and vulnerability disclosure program to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Make company contact information, including security incident contacts, clearly visible on the website.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and ensure compliance with GDPR and other regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern web technologies including asynchronous loading of Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot scripts, and Flickity for UI components. The HTML structure is valid and includes appropriate meta tags for SEO and social sharing (Open Graph). The site is mobile-optimized with viewport settings and responsive CSS. Performance appears moderate based on script usage and content size. Accessibility features are basic but present, such as ARIA roles and labels in the cookie consent dialog. No CMS or hosting provider information was detected. The site could benefit from enhanced accessibility and performance optimizations.
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.
