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

9 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

      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. Security headers

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 business operates in the retail and e-commerce sectors, focusing on supplying professional and industrial products primarily to Latvian businesses. Its competitive advantage lies in a wide product catalog covering HoReCa, automotive care, and industrial cleaning, combined with fast delivery and flexible payment options. The website's structure and product categorization indicate a well-organized inventory management system. The presence of social media and marketing tools suggests active customer engagement. However, the absence of explicit company registration details and privacy policies may limit trust for some customers. The business model is primarily B2B wholesale with some retail elements, targeting professional users and companies requiring bulk purchases. Growth potential exists through enhanced digital marketing and improved compliance transparency.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented. However, it lacks key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries was found in the HTML content. The absence of a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy indicates limited formal incident response readiness. No contact channels for security incidents or abuse were identified. Compliance with GDPR is partially indicated by cookie consent but lacks a published privacy policy. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a commercial website but could be significantly improved by adopting best practices and formal policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Create and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and incident reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly audit and update all plugins and themes to mitigate risks from vulnerable components.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality and Elementor for page building. It uses popular plugins including Yoast SEO for search engine optimization and Slider Revolution for dynamic content display. The site loads external resources from Google Fonts and Google Analytics for typography and analytics respectively. JavaScript libraries include jQuery and various WooCommerce scripts for cart and checkout functionality. The site appears moderately performant with responsive design and mobile optimization. However, no explicit hosting provider information was found. The technical stack is standard for small to medium e-commerce businesses, offering flexibility but requiring regular maintenance to ensure security and performance.
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.
