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

AS Latvijas Maiznieks is a well-established Latvian bakery company specializing in a wide range of bread, bakery products, confectionery, frozen bakery goods, and snacks. The company targets both consumers and business clients within Latvia, offering diverse product lines and maintaining a strong market presence supported by certifications and active social media engagement. The website provides comprehensive product information, recipes, news updates, and company details, reflecting a professional and consistent brand image. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies such as jQuery, Slick Carousel, and Adobe Typekit fonts, delivering a responsive and user-friendly experience. While the site performs moderately well and is mobile-optimized, there is room for improvement in accessibility and performance optimization. SEO practices are adequately implemented with proper meta tags and structured navigation. From a security perspective, the website uses HTTPS and includes a cookie consent mechanism and privacy policy aligned with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of visible security headers and explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies indicates a moderate security posture. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected, but enhancements in security best practices are recommended. Overall, the website is trustworthy and professional, though the lack of WHOIS data limits full verification of domain legitimacy. Strategic improvements in security headers, incident response readiness, and accessibility would strengthen the site's security and compliance standing.

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

8 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

  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

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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

Latvijas Maiznieks operates in the retail and manufacturing sectors, focusing on bakery and confectionery products. The company leverages a diversified product portfolio including breads, seasonal products, frozen goods, and snacks, catering to a broad customer base in Latvia. Their business model combines manufacturing with retail distribution, supported by a strong brand and certifications that enhance market credibility. The company maintains active engagement through social media channels and provides detailed product catalogs and recipes, indicating a customer-centric approach. Growth indicators include regular news updates and seasonal product offerings. No parent or subsidiary relationships were identified from the website content. The company appears to be a large-sized entity within its industry segment.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enabled, and privacy compliance is evident through a detailed privacy policy and cookie consent banner. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which may impact readiness for security incidents. The absence of visible vulnerable libraries is positive, but the use of older jQuery versions should be monitored. Data protection practices appear aligned with GDPR, but improvements in transparency and security best practices are advisable to mitigate risks and enhance trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen defense against common web attacks.
  2. Establish and publish an incident response policy and vulnerability disclosure program to improve security transparency and readiness.
  3. Upgrade or monitor third-party libraries such as jQuery to ensure they are free from known vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance website accessibility to meet recognized standards, improving usability for all users.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain compliance with evolving regulations and best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using standard web technologies including jQuery 3.5.1 and Slick Carousel for interactive UI components, and Adobe Typekit for font management. The HTML and CSS appear valid and well-structured, supporting good SEO and responsive design. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in loading times and resource management. The site lacks a detected CMS, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the content. Technical debt is minimal but monitoring of third-party libraries and enhancement of security configurations are recommended to reduce risks and improve operational stability.
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.
