The website targets professionals and consumers in construction, woodworking, and industrial sectors, offering a comprehensive catalog of products from well-known brands such as Festool, Bessey, and DeWALT. The business operates primarily as a small retail entity with a focused niche market. Technically, the website is built on the EcomCart CMS platform and integrates modern tracking and analytics tools including Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel. The site is mobile-optimized with a clear navigation structure and good content quality. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR, but lacks explicit HTTP security headers in the HTML source, which could be improved.

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

  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 positions itself as a specialized retailer in abrasives and tools within the Latvian market, leveraging recognized brands to build credibility. Its business model is direct e-commerce sales with a focus on product variety and detailed categorization to serve both professionals and hobbyists. The presence of multiple language options and detailed product categories indicates an intent to serve a broader audience. The use of advanced analytics and marketing pixels suggests active digital marketing efforts. However, the lack of visible certifications or extensive trust signals may limit its appeal to more risk-averse customers. The company appears to maintain a lean operation with no visible subsidiaries or parent companies, focusing on regional market penetration.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanisms. The use of reputable analytics and marketing tools is balanced with a lack of visible HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or insecure forms were detected in the HTML content. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact points indicates room for improvement in transparency and preparedness. Regular security audits and implementation of recommended headers would enhance the site's resilience against attacks and improve user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Conduct regular audits of third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Maintain and update cookie consent mechanisms to ensure ongoing GDPR compliance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the EcomCart CMS platform, utilizing jQuery and several third-party analytics and marketing scripts such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Facebook Pixel. The site is mobile-optimized with a responsive design and features a comprehensive navigation menu with multiple product categories. Performance appears moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, the absence of explicit security headers and limited accessibility features suggest technical debt in security and compliance areas. Hosting provider details were not discernible from the HTML content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security practices.
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.
