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

7 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

    • 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  2. 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 Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

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 in Latvia's automotive retail sector, representing a diverse portfolio of premium brands including Jaguar, Land Rover, BMW, MINI, Ford, Mazda, and the used car brand bravoauto. Its business model focuses on multi-brand vehicle sales and after-sales services, targeting individual consumers and automotive enthusiasts. The presence of multiple partner domains and brand-specific microsites indicates a broad partnership ecosystem. The website content and structure suggest a focus on customer trust and loyalty, with an emphasis on quality service rather than just transactional sales. Growth indicators include the recent addition of the bravoauto brand in 2022. The company appears to operate at a large scale within the Latvian market.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses a reputable cookie consent management platform (Usercentrics), along with telemetry and performance monitoring tools such as Microsoft Application Insights and Site24x7 RUM. However, no explicit security headers were detected in the HTML content, and there is no visible security or incident response policy published. Contact information for security incidents or abuse is not provided. The site does not expose sensitive data or show signs of vulnerable libraries in the analyzed content. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by adding security headers, publishing security policies, and providing incident response contacts to improve transparency and readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to harden the website against common attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page with clear contact channels for reporting security issues or abuse.
  3. Add visible company contact information including verified emails and phone numbers to improve trust and compliance.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate potential vulnerabilities and maintain compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern frontend stack including Bootstrap 5, jQuery 3.6, FontAwesome 6.3, and Slick Carousel for UI components and interactivity. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for marketing and user behavior tracking, alongside Microsoft Application Insights and Site24x7 Real User Monitoring for telemetry and performance monitoring. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and preloads critical CSS and JS assets for performance. No CMS or hosting provider information is directly detectable from the HTML content. The site performance is moderate with room for optimization. SEO is basic with minimal meta tags and no structured data (JSON-LD) found. Accessibility is basic, with no explicit ARIA roles or landmarks detected. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced SEO and accessibility improvements.
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.
