The website offers a wide range of products including fishing rods, reels, lines, lures, and fishing licenses. The business targets fishing enthusiasts primarily in Latvia, providing competitive pricing and customer service. The site is built on the EcomCart platform and features a modern, responsive design with clear navigation and product categorization. Technical infrastructure includes JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Slick Slider, with cookie consent mechanisms implemented to comply with GDPR regulations.

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

7 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. 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

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

Fishing Discount operates as a small retail e-commerce business focused on fishing gear in Latvia. The company leverages an online platform to reach local customers, offering specialized products such as fishing licenses and gift cards alongside physical goods. The business model is direct-to-consumer sales via the website. Market positioning is local and niche, targeting anglers and outdoor sports enthusiasts. The website content and structure support a user-friendly shopping experience, with clear contact information and policies enhancing credibility. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries from the data provided. The company appears to maintain basic compliance with privacy regulations and uses minimal tracking technologies.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented. However, it lacks several recommended security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection, which could improve protection against common web attacks. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure policy is present, which limits transparency for security researchers. The absence of incident response contact channels and security policy documentation suggests limited formal security governance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could benefit from enhancements to align with best practices and compliance frameworks.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance web security.
  2. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries to avoid vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance privacy compliance by detailing data retention policies and user rights in the privacy policy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the EcomCart CMS platform, utilizing JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Slick Slider for UI components. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation and SEO meta tags. Performance is moderate, with some optimization opportunities in accessibility and advanced SEO. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented using a third-party GDPR compliance script. The site uses HTTPS but lacks advanced security headers. No hosting provider information was detected. The technical stack is modern but basic, suitable for a small retail e-commerce site. There is no evidence of complex backend frameworks or cloud infrastructure from the HTML content alone.
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.
