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

Foodbox.lv is an online food ordering platform serving a local restaurant business based in Riga, Latvia. The website offers a menu with detailed product descriptions, allergen information, and ordering options including takeaway and onsite dining. The business targets general consumers seeking convenient food ordering services. The platform is built on the UpMenu CMS and integrates various third-party technologies for analytics and marketing. The website demonstrates good content quality and user experience with clear navigation and mobile optimization. However, it lacks explicit privacy and cookie policies, which impacts compliance and trust. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS usage but missing security headers and formal policies. WHOIS data could not be retrieved, limiting domain legitimacy verification. Overall, the site is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security measures.

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

10 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. 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 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';…

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

The business operates in the hospitality sector focusing on food delivery and takeaway services. It leverages an online ordering platform to reach customers in Riga, Latvia. The company appears to be a small local entity (SIA PLT) with a clear business model centered on direct consumer sales via digital channels. The website content and structured data confirm the physical location and contact details, supporting credibility. Marketing tools and analytics indicate an active approach to customer engagement. Absence of detailed corporate information and WHOIS data limits deeper business intelligence. No partnerships or subsidiaries are evident from the data.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communication. However, no security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS are detected, which could expose the site to certain web-based attacks. There is no visible privacy policy or cookie consent mechanism, which is a compliance gap under GDPR. No incident response or security contact information is provided. The site uses common third-party scripts for analytics and marketing, which may introduce privacy considerations. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but requires improvements in policy transparency and technical safeguards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers like Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options to enhance web security.
  3. Provide clear terms of service and incident response contact information to build trust and readiness.
  4. Conduct a security audit of third-party scripts and minimize tracking to protect user privacy.
  5. Improve accessibility features to broaden user inclusivity and meet standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the UpMenu CMS platform, utilizing Bootstrap for responsive design and jQuery for interactivity. It integrates Google Fonts, YouTube Player API, Stripe.js for payments, and Elastic APM for performance monitoring. The site loads moderately fast with good mobile optimization. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). However, no explicit hosting provider information is found. The site uses lazy loading for images and has a well-structured menu system. Technical debt appears low but could improve with enhanced accessibility and security header implementation.
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.
