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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)

      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
  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

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 · found on this site
  • 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 regional multi-category e-commerce retailer with partnerships with local price comparison and shopping guide services such as salidzini.lv and kurpirkt.lv. The presence of payment partner logos like Mastercard and Visa indicates established payment processing relationships. The business model relies on a broad product offering to attract a wide customer base. The website's content and structure suggest a medium-sized enterprise with a focus on retail and consumer electronics sectors. Growth indicators include frequent product updates and a wide product catalog.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms, indicating a good baseline security posture. A cookie consent banner is implemented, supporting GDPR compliance. However, there is a lack of advanced security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and no visible security policy or incident response contact information. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present, which could improve transparency and security readiness. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional headers and published policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement additional HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to strengthen protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain GDPR compliance and user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including Google Fonts, Google reCAPTCHA, and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The HTML and CSS are valid and the site is mobile-optimized with good navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility. No CMS or hosting provider information is explicitly detected. The site structure supports SEO with proper meta tags and keyword usage. Technical risks are minimal but could be reduced further by implementing additional security headers and improving accessibility compliance.
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.
