Risk levelHigh

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

The website evauto.lv represents a local Latvian used car dealership based in Jelgava, offering used car sales, leasing options, trade-in services, and car delivery from Europe. The business targets Latvian customers interested in purchasing used vehicles with flexible financing options. The site features a detailed car catalog with pricing and leasing information, supporting the business model of retail and leasing of used automobiles. From a technical perspective, the website employs common web technologies such as jQuery, FontAwesome, Google Fonts, and embedded YouTube videos. The site is mobile optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. However, no CMS or hosting provider information is discernible from the data. Performance is moderate, and SEO practices appear adequate with proper meta tags and Open Graph data. Security posture is moderate but could be improved. The site uses HTTPS (assumed from URL), includes a cookie consent banner, and avoids exposing sensitive data in HTML. However, no HTTP security headers were detected, and no security or incident response policies are published. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain legitimacy verification, but the website content and contact details appear consistent with a legitimate local business. Overall, the website is functional, professional, and safe for general audiences. The main risks relate to incomplete security headers, lack of published security policies, and missing WHOIS transparency. Strategic improvements in security configuration and compliance documentation would enhance trust and resilience.

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

11 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

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  4. 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';…

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Evauto.lv operates in the transportation sector as a small local used car dealership in Jelgava, Latvia. Its competitive advantage lies in offering leasing without down payment, trade-in options, and direct car delivery from Europe, appealing to budget-conscious buyers. The business model focuses on retail sales combined with financing services, targeting individual consumers in Latvia. The detailed car catalog and leasing information indicate a customer-centric approach. No evident partnerships or subsidiaries are identified. Growth indicators include weekly new car arrivals and active leasing promotions. The company maintains a straightforward digital presence with moderate technical sophistication and limited marketing or analytics tools.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security maturity level. HTTPS is presumably enabled, but no explicit security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) were found, which are important for mitigating common web attacks. The cookie consent banner indicates some GDPR compliance awareness. No incident response or security policy pages are published, and no dedicated security contact channels are provided. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification. Overall, the security posture is functional but lacks depth and formal documentation, posing moderate risk in compliance and resilience.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Verify and improve SSL/TLS configuration to ensure strong encryption and no vulnerabilities.
  4. Add a terms of service page to clarify user agreements and legal protections.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance by linking a comprehensive privacy policy and detailing data retention and user rights.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a simple but effective technology stack including jQuery 3.5.1, FontAwesome 5.8.2, Google Fonts, and embedded YouTube video content. The HTML structure is valid and includes proper meta tags and Open Graph data for SEO and social sharing. The site is mobile responsive with a script to remove video iframe on small screens. No CMS or hosting provider is identified. Performance is moderate with no heavy scripts or trackers detected. Accessibility features are basic but present. The site lacks advanced analytics or marketing tools, indicating low technical complexity but also limited data-driven insights. Opportunities exist to modernize with security enhancements and richer analytics integration.
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.
