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

Pakella.lv is a Latvian e-commerce website specializing in the sale of various packaging products including food packaging, cardboard packaging, industrial packaging, and packaging equipment. The site targets businesses and consumers seeking packaging solutions and offers a broad catalog of products and related services such as equipment servicing and packaging customization. The website is built on the OpenCart CMS platform and utilizes modern web technologies including jQuery, Bootstrap, FontAwesome, and Slick Carousel. It is secured with HTTPS and implements a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism. However, explicit contact information and detailed business registration data are not present on the site, which slightly limits business credibility assessment. The WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, restricting domain legitimacy verification. Overall, the site presents a professional and functional e-commerce platform with moderate technical maturity and a good security posture.

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

7 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

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

Pakella.lv operates in the retail sector focusing on packaging materials and equipment. Its business model is primarily e-commerce retail supplemented by service offerings such as equipment maintenance. The company appears to have a medium-sized operation with a regional market focus in Latvia. The website's product categorization and multilingual support indicate an intent to serve a diverse customer base. The absence of detailed company registration and contact information on the site suggests potential areas for improvement in transparency. The integration of Google Analytics and cookie consent reflects awareness of digital marketing and privacy compliance. No partnerships or subsidiaries are explicitly identified from the website content.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and includes a cookie consent banner with opt-in functionality, demonstrating compliance with GDPR requirements. The use of modern JavaScript libraries is noted, but no explicit security headers were detected in the HTML content. There is no published security policy or incident response information, which could be a gap in security transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were observed in the provided HTML. The lack of a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy limits the ability for external security researchers to report issues. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for enhancement in security policy publication and HTTP header hardening.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance security.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Include explicit company contact information such as emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and customer trust.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party libraries to mitigate risks from vulnerable components.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of jQuery 2.1.1, Bootstrap CSS, FontAwesome icons, and Slick Carousel for UI components, indicating a moderately modern front-end stack. The presence of Google Analytics via gtag.js shows integration of analytics for user behavior tracking. The site is built on OpenCart CMS, inferred from URL patterns and file paths, which is a common e-commerce platform. Performance appears moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization evident. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and canonical links. Accessibility features are basic but present. The site lacks advanced frameworks or server-side technology details in the HTML. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is adequate for a medium-sized e-commerce operation but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
