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

SIA Maho is a Latvian logistics company specializing in international and domestic cargo transportation by road, rail, air, and sea. The company offers a comprehensive range of services including cargo insurance, customs clearance, warehouse services, and real-time cargo tracking. Their target market includes businesses requiring reliable freight forwarding and logistics solutions primarily in the Baltic region, EU, CIS, and Asia. The website is professionally designed using WordPress with modern plugins and provides clear contact information and social media presence, indicating a legitimate business operation. Technically, the website employs a standard WordPress stack with Visual Composer and Slider Revolution for content management and presentation. It uses HTTPS and Google reCAPTCHA for form security, but lacks advanced security headers and explicit privacy or cookie policies, which are important for GDPR compliance. Performance and mobile optimization are adequate, though accessibility and SEO could be improved. From a security perspective, the site shows basic good practices such as HTTPS and spam protection on forms but lacks security headers and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. The absence of WHOIS data due to query limits restricts full trust verification, though the site content and structure suggest a legitimate entity. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for improvement. The overall risk is low to moderate, with recommendations to implement privacy and cookie policies, add security headers, and publish a security.txt file to enhance transparency and compliance. Regular updates and monitoring are advised to maintain security and trustworthiness.

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

10 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

SIA Maho operates in the competitive logistics and transportation sector with a focus on multi-modal freight services. Their business model centers on providing tailored logistics solutions including full and partial cargo transport, oversized cargo handling, and customs services. The company targets SMEs and larger enterprises needing freight forwarding in Latvia and neighboring regions. Their social media presence and client news updates indicate active engagement and a growing customer base. The company leverages partnerships for insurance and transport modes, enhancing service breadth. Growth indicators include a professional website with client testimonials and a range of services. However, lack of detailed corporate data and WHOIS transparency limits deeper competitive analysis.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and Google reCAPTCHA protecting forms against spam. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, which is a gap in security culture and transparency. The site does not display privacy or cookie policies, raising compliance concerns under GDPR. No exposed sensitive data or known vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but would benefit from enhanced headers, documented policies, and a formal vulnerability disclosure process.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and enable HSTS.
  3. Publish a security.txt file and provide clear incident response contact information to improve transparency.
  4. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance SEO and accessibility features to improve user experience and search rankings.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress using Visual Composer and Slider Revolution plugins, indicating a common CMS-based infrastructure. It uses jQuery and Bootstrap for frontend functionality and styling. Google Maps API integration provides location services. The site loads multiple external resources from trusted domains such as Google Fonts and Font Awesome. Performance is moderate with no major errors detected. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility features are basic. SEO is supported by meta tags and structured navigation but lacks advanced optimization. The technical stack is standard for small to medium business websites, with opportunities for modernization and security hardening.
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.
