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

HELITECH is a Latvian metal processing company established in 2021, specializing in welding, CNC cutting, and maintenance services for Can-Am quad bikes and buggies. The company leverages over 20 years of team experience and has received European Union funding to modernize its production capabilities, including laser welding technology. Their website is professionally designed using WordPress and modern JavaScript libraries, providing clear information about their services and contact details. The site is accessible, mobile-optimized, and SEO-friendly, though it lacks some advanced security headers and cookie consent mechanisms. WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, but the business appears legitimate based on content and external trust signals.

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

11 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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

HELITECH operates in the manufacturing and transportation sectors, targeting local businesses and individuals requiring metal processing and vehicle maintenance. Their business model focuses on service provision and custom manufacturing, supported by EU grants that enhance their technological capabilities. The company maintains a professional online presence with clear service descriptions and contact channels. Social media links are present but generic. The absence of detailed WHOIS data is common for small businesses and does not significantly detract from their credibility. The company is positioned as a growing local player with a focus on quality and rapid order fulfillment.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a good SSL configuration, ensuring secure data transmission. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could improve protection against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, limiting transparency in security practices. No forms are present on the homepage, reducing attack surface. The site does not implement a cookie consent mechanism despite having a cookie policy, which may pose GDPR compliance risks. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for improvement in headers and compliance features.

Recommendations

  1. Implement essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply with GDPR and improve user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contacts.
  4. Regularly review and update third-party libraries and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance contact information with a dedicated security or incident response email to improve trust and readiness.

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.2 with Yoast SEO plugin, using modern JavaScript libraries such as Swiper.js, jQuery, and Fancybox for UI components. The site loads resources from trusted CDNs like jsdelivr.net and code.jquery.com, contributing to performance and reliability. The design is responsive and mobile-friendly with good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Performance is moderate with some lazy loading techniques. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. No major technical debt or outdated technologies detected. Hosting provider details are not disclosed.
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.
