Risk levelHigh

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

Elmex SIA is a Latvian company specializing in industrial automation, electrical systems, and process control. Their website presents a professional image focused on B2B services including control system design, PLC/HMI/SCADA programming, electrical installation, and automation services. The company targets industrial and utility sectors requiring automation solutions. The website is built on Drupal CMS and uses common JavaScript libraries and analytics tools such as Google Analytics and StatCounter. The site is accessible without any WAF or security challenge blocking content. However, no privacy, cookie, or terms of service policies are present, and no direct contact information is visible on the homepage, which limits user trust and compliance transparency. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, but the website content and business information appear consistent and professional, indicating legitimacy.

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. 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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  3. 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 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

Elmex operates in a niche market segment focused on industrial automation and electrical systems in Latvia. Their business model is service-oriented, providing design, installation, programming, and maintenance services to industrial clients. The company leverages a Drupal-based website to showcase services and projects, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. The absence of visible contact details and compliance policies suggests areas for improvement in customer engagement and regulatory adherence. No partnerships or subsidiaries are indicated on the site. The use of analytics tools shows an interest in monitoring visitor behavior, though privacy compliance is weak.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS (implied by external script URLs with https), but no explicit security headers were detected in the provided data. Google Analytics is configured with IP anonymization, which is a positive privacy practice. The lack of privacy and cookie policies, as well as absence of incident response or security policy information, indicates a low maturity level in security governance and compliance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified from the HTML content. The site should improve by implementing security headers, publishing privacy and cookie policies, and providing clear contact channels for security incidents.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement and verify HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add clear company contact information including emails and phone numbers on the website.
  4. Establish and communicate an incident response policy and contact channels for security issues.
  5. Regularly update Drupal and all third-party libraries to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal CMS with jQuery 1.10.2 and uses Owl Carousel and Colorbox for UI components. Google Analytics and StatCounter are used for visitor tracking. The site loads multiple CSS and JS resources from its own domain and trusted external domains. Mobile optimization is good with responsive CSS stylesheets. Accessibility is basic but present with skip links and language switcher. Performance is moderate given the number of resources loaded. No advanced frameworks beyond Drupal and jQuery are detected. Hosting provider details are not available from the content. The site would benefit from improved SEO metadata and accessibility enhancements.
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.
