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

Mego is a well-established retail grocery company operating in Latvia, providing a broad range of grocery products and customer services including a loyalty program and culinary content. The website is professionally designed with good navigation and mobile optimization, supporting multiple languages (Latvian and Russian). The technical infrastructure is based on WordPress with modern integrations such as Cookiebot for cookie consent, Google Tag Manager, and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place, though there is room for improvement in security headers and explicit security policies. Privacy compliance is basic, with no explicit privacy policy or terms of service pages found, which should be addressed to enhance trust and compliance. Overall, the website reflects a credible and professional retail brand with extensive user tracking for marketing purposes.

NIS2 Art. 21(2)

  1. (a) Risk analysis and security policies: Not visible from outside

  3. (c) Business continuity, backups and crisis management: Not visible from outside
  4. (d) Supply chain security: Not visible from outside

The NIS2 figure counts only evidence anyone can see from the internet. 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

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. DNS health

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

    • High

      Mail Server Does Not Offer STARTTLS

      host2.mwtv.lv accepts mail without offering encryption (STARTTLS), so mail sent to mego.lv crosses the internet in plain text.

      What to do: Enable STARTTLS with a valid certificate on the mail server, or move mail to a provider that supports it.

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.
  • Accessibility: Accessibility is a separate readout from security, so it is reported but not scored. 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

Mego holds a strong market position in the Latvian retail grocery sector, targeting general consumers with a loyalty program and promotional campaigns. The business model focuses on retail sales supported by digital engagement through recipes, culinary information, and customer loyalty. Partnerships with related domains such as megoakcija.com and megoloterija.lv indicate a broader ecosystem for promotions and customer engagement. The company leverages social media channels for brand presence and customer interaction. Growth indicators include multilingual support and integration of modern marketing and analytics tools. The absence of explicit contact details on the main page suggests a focus on digital self-service and loyalty portal usage.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and a robust cookie consent mechanism via Cookiebot. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of published security policies or incident response information indicate gaps in security best practices. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party scripts like Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel introduces potential risk vectors that require regular auditing. Compliance with GDPR is partially indicated by cookie consent but lacks comprehensive privacy policy documentation. Incident response readiness and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not evident, suggesting areas for improvement in security culture and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the main navigation or footer.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Provide clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers for customer and security incident reporting.
  4. Establish and publicize an incident response plan and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve security transparency.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and integrations to mitigate potential security risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Yoast SEO plugin for search engine optimization. It uses Cookiebot for GDPR-compliant cookie management and integrates Google Tag Manager and Facebook Pixel for analytics and marketing. The site loads Google Maps API for store location features. The design is responsive and optimized for mobile devices. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and optimized images. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO is well addressed with proper meta tags, Open Graph data, and JSON-LD structured data. Technical risks include reliance on multiple third-party scripts and lack of advanced security headers. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified from the HTML content.
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.
