Security score

76/100

Risk levelLow

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

Lapua is a premium ammunition manufacturer specializing in high-quality cartridges, bullets, and cartridge cases for sport shooters, hunters, reloaders, and military/law enforcement authorities. The website presents a professional and comprehensive digital presence with e-commerce capabilities, detailed product information, and brand protection warnings. The technical infrastructure is based on WordPress and WooCommerce, leveraging modern web technologies and analytics tools. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS and no obvious vulnerabilities, but lacks explicit security headers and incident response information. The absence of WHOIS registration data is a significant concern for domain legitimacy and business credibility. Overall, the website is well-designed and functional but requires verification of domain registration and improved transparency in contact information.

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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  3. 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.

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

  4. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain: mail.nammo.com

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory

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

Lapua operates in the manufacturing sector with a focus on ammunition products. The company targets a specialized audience including competitive shooters, hunters, and tactical users. Its business model includes direct product sales through an online store and a network of authorized dealers. The brand is positioned as a premium quality provider with global reach, supported by marketing efforts such as testimonials and news updates. The website content and structure support strong brand consistency and trust signals. However, the lack of publicly available WHOIS data and direct contact details may impact customer trust and regulatory compliance.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and uses standard security practices inherent to WordPress and WooCommerce platforms. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the site does not explicitly present security policies, incident response contacts, or certifications. Security headers are not visibly configured, which could improve protection against common web attacks. The site includes cookie consent mechanisms and privacy policies aligned with GDPR. The missing WHOIS data and lack of direct company contact emails are notable gaps in security and trustworthiness.

Recommendations

  1. Verify and publish accurate WHOIS domain registration information to enhance legitimacy and trust.
  2. Add explicit security policy and incident response pages with dedicated contact channels.
  3. Implement and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Provide clear company contact emails and phone numbers on the website for customer and security communications.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party plugins and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities and maintain compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality. It uses jQuery, Font Awesome, Typekit fonts, and Google Analytics/Tag Manager for tracking and marketing. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and accessibility considerations. Performance is moderate, with room for optimization. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and rich snippets. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The technical stack is standard for commercial retail websites but would benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance tuning.
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.
