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

Mercurius Trade SIA operates as a wholesale distributor of electronics and household appliances in Latvia, targeting businesses that require bulk purchasing from leading global manufacturers. The company emphasizes flexible delivery, manufacturer warranties, and competitive pricing by sourcing directly from producers. The website presents a professional image with clear branding, contact information, and a catalog of recognized brands, positioning Mercurius Trade as a reliable partner in the retail supply chain. Technically, the website employs standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, and Google Maps API for location services. The presence of a Content-Security-Policy header indicates some attention to security, though additional headers and HTTPS enforcement details are not fully verifiable. The site uses Yandex Metrika for analytics, reflecting moderate digital maturity but lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, which are important for GDPR compliance. From a security perspective, the site shows basic best practices but lacks comprehensive security and privacy disclosures. No forms or input fields are present on the main page, reducing immediate attack surface, but the absence of incident response contacts and security policies suggests room for improvement. WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, limiting domain trust evaluation, but the consistent business information and contact details support legitimacy. Overall, Mercurius Trade presents a solid business presence with good content quality and moderate technical implementation. Security and privacy compliance require enhancement to meet modern standards and improve trustworthiness. Strategic improvements in security headers, privacy disclosures, and WHOIS transparency would strengthen the company's digital posture and customer confidence.

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

    • 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

    • High

      Forces HTTPS connections

      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

Mercurius Trade operates in the retail sector as a wholesale supplier of electronics and household appliances, serving both large and small businesses. Their competitive advantage lies in direct manufacturer pricing, flexible logistics, and warranty support, appealing to businesses seeking reliable supply chains. The company maintains partnerships with well-known global brands, enhancing market credibility. The business model focuses on volume sales with margin optimization through bulk orders. Growth potential is indicated by the broad product catalog and emphasis on delivery solutions. The partnership with sb-systems.lv for website development suggests a professional approach to digital presence. However, the lack of visible privacy and security policies may impact customer trust and regulatory compliance. The company appears to be a small-sized entity focused on the Latvian market with potential for regional expansion.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with the presence of a Content-Security-Policy header and HTTPS usage implied by the URL scheme, though SSL configuration details are not fully verifiable. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of additional security headers such as X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security robustness. There are no visible forms or input fields, minimizing immediate risk vectors. The lack of privacy and cookie policies indicates non-compliance with GDPR and related regulations, which is a significant gap for a business operating in the EU. No incident response or security contact information is provided, limiting the ability to report or respond to security incidents. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add security headers including X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to strengthen site security.
  3. Ensure HTTPS is fully enforced with strong SSL/TLS configuration and regularly audited certificates.
  4. Publish incident response and security contact information to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve transparency.
  5. Improve WHOIS data availability or transparency to enhance domain trustworthiness and legitimacy perception.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, and integrates Google Maps API for location display. FontAwesome is used for iconography, and Slick Carousel provides interactive sliders. The site loads external resources from reputable CDNs such as cdnjs.cloudflare.com and ajax.googleapis.com, contributing to performance and reliability. The design is responsive at a basic level, with clear navigation and structured content. SEO is supported by meta tags and Open Graph data, enhancing social media sharing and search engine visibility. However, accessibility features are minimal, and performance is moderate, suggesting opportunities for optimization. No CMS or hosting provider information is discernible from the source. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could benefit from modernization and enhanced 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.
