The company targets industrial and commercial customers within Latvia, offering a comprehensive online catalog and delivery services. The site is professionally designed with clear navigation and multilingual support, reflecting a mature e-commerce platform focused on the energy sector. Technically, the site is built on the Sana Commerce CMS platform and integrates modern analytics and customer engagement tools such as Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and LiveChat. The website is mobile-optimized and performs moderately well, with good SEO and accessibility basics in place. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and includes cookie consent mechanisms, but lacks visible advanced security headers and explicit security or incident response policies.

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

8 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

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

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

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

GasBox operates as a specialized retailer and rental service provider in the Latvian industrial gases market, leveraging an e-commerce model to reach its customers. The company’s partnership with ELME MESSER GAAS is evident, indicating a strong supplier relationship and possibly shared branding. The business model focuses on providing a wide range of gases and equipment with delivery and rental options, catering to welding, cutting, medical, and food industry needs. The presence of a newsletter subscription and multilingual site versions indicates efforts to engage and expand its customer base. The company appears medium-sized with a focused market niche in Latvia. The lack of visible certifications or detailed company registration data online suggests an opportunity to enhance trust signals. The website’s integration of analytics and chat tools supports customer service and marketing efforts, positioning the company competitively in its sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security posture with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent implemented, aligning with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces its defense-in-depth capabilities. No explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present, which limits transparency and preparedness for security incidents. The use of third-party scripts (Google Analytics, LiveChat, YouTube) introduces potential risk vectors that require ongoing monitoring. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended headers, publishing security policies, and establishing incident response contacts.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information on the website to improve transparency and customer trust.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Ensure all forms include anti-CSRF tokens and robust input validation to prevent injection attacks.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate risks from external libraries.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Sana Commerce CMS platform, leveraging modern web technologies including asynchronous loading of Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and LiveChat scripts. The site is multilingual with Latvian as the primary language and English and Russian alternatives. The HTML structure is valid and includes SEO-friendly meta tags and canonical links. Performance is moderate with lazy loading of images and deferred script loading. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design elements and accessible navigation. Accessibility features are basic but present, including no-JavaScript fallbacks and ARIA roles. The site lacks advanced security headers and detailed technical metadata such as structured data (JSON-LD) or Open Graph tags. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the HTML content. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced security and structured data for improved SEO and compliance.
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.
