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

WESS Select HONDA is the official Honda dealership and service provider in Latvia since 2018, offering new Honda vehicle sales along with comprehensive after-sales services including servicing, leasing, insurance, and trade-in options. The website is built on WordPress with WooCommerce, integrating modern web technologies and tracking tools such as Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel. The site is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and provides multiple customer contact channels, enhancing user experience and business credibility. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and reCAPTCHA usage, but lacks some security headers and explicit security policies. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain legitimacy verification. Overall, the site presents a professional and trustworthy front for its business operations.

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

  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 company holds a strong market position as the official Honda dealer in Latvia, targeting local customers interested in Honda vehicles and related services. Its business model focuses on direct sales, servicing, and financial products like leasing and insurance. The website supports this model with e-commerce capabilities and customer engagement forms. The use of structured data and consistent branding supports SEO and trust. Absence of detailed privacy and security policies suggests room for compliance improvement. No suspicious domains or partners were identified, indicating a focused and legitimate business ecosystem.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and Google reCAPTCHA to protect user interactions and data submissions. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which are recommended to mitigate common web attacks. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are present, limiting transparency for security researchers. The absence of explicit privacy and cookie policies may pose compliance risks under GDPR. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced with additional best practices and policy disclosures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.
  5. Regularly audit and update all plugins and themes to mitigate security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by WordPress CMS with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality, leveraging popular JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Bootstrap for responsive design. It integrates third-party services including Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and Klix pay-later widget, indicating a mature marketing and payment infrastructure. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO enhancement. No hosting provider details were identified from the HTML. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from improved security headers and enhanced accessibility 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.
