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

Painteco.com is an e-commerce website specializing in natural linseed oil coatings for wood, targeting primarily Latvian-speaking customers with multilingual support for German and English. The business appears to be a small, niche player in the natural wood coatings market, founded in 2014, leveraging the Shopify platform for its online presence. The website features professional design and consistent branding, with customer reviews integrated via Judge.me, enhancing trust signals. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies and Shopify's infrastructure, ensuring moderate performance and good mobile optimization. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and hCaptcha protection on forms, but lacks some advanced security headers and DNSSEC. Privacy compliance is weak due to the absence of explicit privacy and cookie policies, and no visible terms of service or incident response information. Overall, the site is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security disclosures to improve compliance and trust.

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

3 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.

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  2. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

The company operates in the e-commerce sector focusing on natural linseed oil wood coatings, serving a niche market in Latvia and possibly neighboring regions. Its business model is direct online retail via Shopify, with multilingual support indicating an intent to reach broader European customers. The integration of Judge.me reviews suggests an emphasis on customer feedback and trust-building. The lack of detailed business registration or contact information on the site limits transparency but the domain age and registration data support legitimacy. Marketing tools like Langify and Lably indicate active management of localization and promotional labels. The company appears to maintain a lean digital footprint focused on product sales with moderate user tracking.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communications, and uses hCaptcha to protect forms from automated abuse. However, the absence of DNSSEC and common security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces its defense-in-depth. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. The lack of published privacy policies, cookie consent mechanisms, and incident response contacts represents compliance gaps, especially under GDPR. The security score is moderate, reflecting a basic but incomplete security posture. Recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, adding security headers, and publishing comprehensive privacy and security policies to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Implement DNSSEC to improve domain name system security.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for customer support and security incidents.
  5. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact details.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Shopify using the Zest theme version 8.5.0, leveraging Liquid templating, JavaScript, and CSS. It uses Shopify's CDN for hosting and assets delivery, ensuring reliable performance and scalability. The site includes multiple third-party integrations such as Judge.me for reviews, Langify for language switching, and Lably for label management. Performance is moderate with deferred and async loading of scripts. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design and appropriate font scaling. SEO is basic with meta tags and Open Graph data present but no JSON-LD structured data detected. Accessibility features are minimal but present. Technical risks include missing DNSSEC and lack of advanced security headers.
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.
