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

EMJ Metals is a leading Latvian metalworking and sheet metal fabrication company, recognized as the largest in the Baltic states. They specialize in laser cutting, metal bending, plasma cutting, and aftertreatment services, serving a diverse client base including civilian and military sectors. Their extensive production facilities and advanced machinery enable them to process large volumes of metal daily, supporting over 1000 clients annually. The company emphasizes long-term partnerships and continuous growth since its founding in 2010. Technically, the website is built on a modern stack including jQuery, Skrollr.js, and integrates advanced analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Snowplow. The site is hosted on a CDN infrastructure ensuring moderate performance and good mobile optimization. SEO and accessibility are adequately addressed, though accessibility could be improved. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses CAPTCHA mechanisms to protect forms. However, it lacks visible security headers and explicit cookie consent mechanisms, which are important for GDPR compliance. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, limiting domain registration trust verification. Overall, EMJ Metals presents a professional and trustworthy online presence aligned with its business stature. Strategic improvements in privacy compliance and security headers would enhance their security posture and regulatory adherence.

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

4 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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

  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

EMJ Metals holds a strong market position as the largest sheet metal processing company in the Baltic region, leveraging advanced machinery and a large production footprint. Their business model focuses on manufacturing and fabrication services with a strong export orientation across Europe. The company targets industrial clients across civilian and military sectors, offering a full production cycle including cutting, bending, welding, and coating. Their participation in EU-funded projects and certifications like AQAP 2110:2016 demonstrate commitment to quality and innovation. Partnerships with regional organizations and a growing client base indicate healthy growth and market integration.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and use of CAPTCHA technologies to mitigate automated abuse. The absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents an area for improvement. No signs of exposed credentials, vulnerable libraries, or malware were found. Privacy compliance is partial, lacking cookie consent banners and detailed privacy frameworks. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not publicly documented. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced headers, explicit privacy controls, and published security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Add a visible cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies, including a security.txt file.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user experience.
  5. Regularly review and update WHOIS information to ensure domain registration transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern and stable technology stack with jQuery and Skrollr.js for UI effects, supported by CDN-hosted static assets for performance. Analytics integration is comprehensive, utilizing Google Analytics, Tag Manager, and Snowplow for detailed tracking. The site is multilingual with hreflang tags for SEO optimization. Performance is moderate with good mobile responsiveness. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in accessibility and security headers would reduce risk and improve compliance. Hosting on a reputable CDN provider supports scalability and uptime.
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.
