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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

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

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

AS Neo operates primarily in the manufacturing and retail sectors, targeting food industry businesses requiring additives and testing solutions. Their competitive advantage lies in a broad product portfolio, technical expertise, and personalized customer service. The company leverages multiple online platforms to diversify revenue streams and enhance market reach. The presence of certifications like FSSC 22000 and detailed privacy policies indicates a mature compliance posture. The company’s growth is supported by a strong team and strategic partnerships, with a clear focus on quality and innovation in food technology. Their market position is stable within Latvia, with potential for regional expansion.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is properly implemented, and cookie consent mechanisms align with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests potential areas for enhancement. No visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of explicit incident response contacts or vulnerability disclosure policies limits transparency. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but could benefit from adopting additional best practices and formalizing incident response processes.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a security.txt file and provide clear incident response contact information to improve vulnerability disclosure and response readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and frameworks to reduce risk of known vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features and mobile optimization to improve user experience and compliance.
  5. Maintain and update privacy and cookie policies to reflect evolving regulations and best practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS, utilizing jQuery, Bootstrap, and UIkit frameworks for responsive design and interactive features. Google Analytics and Facebook SDK are integrated for analytics and marketing. The site shows moderate performance with good SEO practices including meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Mobile optimization is good, though accessibility features are basic. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. The technical stack is modern but could be improved by adding security headers and optimizing performance further. The site structure and navigation are clear, supporting a positive user experience.
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.
