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

Grindeks is an established pharmaceutical company based in Latvia, operating since 2005. The company focuses on pharmaceutical manufacturing and healthcare solutions, targeting healthcare professionals and patients. The website reflects a professional corporate presence with consistent branding and good content quality. Technically, the site is built on WordPress, uses modern web fonts and iconography, and is hosted behind Cloudflare DNS with HTTPS enabled, indicating a solid digital infrastructure. Security posture is adequate with SSL and domain transfer protections, but lacks advanced security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is moderate due to the presence of a cookie consent mechanism but absence of a clear privacy policy and terms of service. Overall, the site is trustworthy and credible but could improve transparency and compliance documentation.

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. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

    • High

      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

Grindeks holds a strong market position in the Latvian pharmaceutical sector with a business model centered on manufacturing and distribution of healthcare products. The company targets healthcare providers and patients, leveraging a corporate website to communicate its brand and services. The domain age and WHOIS data support the legitimacy and longevity of the business. The absence of privacy and terms documentation suggests an opportunity to enhance regulatory compliance and customer trust. The use of Google Tag Manager and cookie consent tools indicates awareness of digital marketing and privacy requirements. No suspicious domains or partners were identified, reinforcing a clean business ecosystem.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a baseline security posture with HTTPS enabled and domain status clientTransferProhibited, reducing risk of domain hijacking. However, the lack of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS reduces defense-in-depth. No security policy or incident response contact information is published, which limits transparency and preparedness communication. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The site uses third-party scripts including Google Tag Manager and Cookie Script, which require ongoing monitoring for privacy compliance. Overall, security is adequate but could be enhanced by implementing additional headers, publishing security policies, and enabling DNSSEC.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement DNSSEC to enhance domain name system security.
  3. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide clear contact information including security incident response channels.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts for privacy and security compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS, leveraging Google Tag Manager for analytics and Cookie Script for cookie consent management. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, and icons from Font Awesome. The site uses Cloudflare DNS but does not enable DNSSEC. Performance is moderate with preloading of key assets. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design and viewport meta tags. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO is supported by Rank Math PRO plugin and structured data in JSON-LD format, enhancing search engine visibility. No critical technical issues or broken elements were detected in the provided content.
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.
