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

GRIEZE is a small local beauty salon based in Riga, Latvia, offering a comprehensive range of hairdressing and nail care services including haircuts, braiding, coloring, styling, hair recovery treatments, and manicure/pedicure services. The website positions the business clearly for local customers seeking beauty salon services. The company maintains an active presence on multiple social media platforms, enhancing its local market reach. Technically, the website is built on the Squarespace platform, leveraging modern web technologies such as Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel for user tracking and marketing insights. The site is mobile-optimized with good design quality and clear navigation, providing a positive user experience. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS but lacks several important security headers such as HSTS and CSP, which could be improved to enhance protection. Privacy compliance is partial, with a cookie consent banner present but no visible privacy policy or terms of service, indicating room for improvement in regulatory adherence. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced security and privacy documentation to strengthen its compliance posture.

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

  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 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

GRIEZE operates in the hospitality sector as a beauty salon, targeting local customers in Riga. Its business model is service-oriented, focusing on personal grooming and styling. The company leverages social media channels for marketing and customer engagement. The absence of detailed corporate information such as founding year or parent company suggests a small independent business. The website content and structured data indicate a consistent brand presence. The use of Squarespace simplifies website management but may limit customization. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries. The business appears stable with moderate digital maturity, using standard analytics and marketing tools. Growth opportunities could include expanding online booking or e-commerce capabilities. The lack of privacy and terms policies may pose compliance risks as regulations evolve.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled, ensuring encrypted communication. However, the absence of critical security headers such as HSTS, Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces its defense against common web attacks like clickjacking, MIME sniffing, and protocol downgrade attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The cookie consent banner indicates some awareness of GDPR requirements, but the lack of a privacy policy and terms of service is a compliance gap. No incident response or security contact information is provided, which could hinder timely reporting of security issues. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small business but requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory expectations.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to ensure all connections use HTTPS.
  2. Add a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  3. Deploy Content Security Policy (CSP) and other security headers (X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  4. Establish a security incident response contact or page to facilitate reporting and handling of security issues.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to maintain a strong security culture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is hosted on Squarespace, a popular CMS and hosting platform known for ease of use and integrated features. It uses modern web fonts from Typekit and Google Fonts, and includes analytics and marketing scripts from Google and Facebook. The site loads a variety of compressed CSS and JS assets, indicating some optimization. Mobile responsiveness is good, and SEO meta tags including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data are well implemented, aiding search engine visibility and social sharing. However, the site lacks advanced security headers and some accessibility features. Performance is moderate, typical for CMS-hosted sites with external dependencies. There is no evidence of custom backend technologies or complex integrations. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid for a small business website but could be improved with enhanced security and compliance features.
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.
