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

Papirs.lv is a Latvian-based e-commerce retailer specializing in office supplies, packaging materials, hygiene products, and related goods. The website offers a comprehensive product catalog targeting businesses and consumers primarily in Latvia and the Baltic region. The company provides online shopping capabilities with clear contact options and multilingual support, positioning itself as a reliable local supplier in its sector. Technically, the website is built on Drupal 7 CMS with a range of custom modules and popular JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Bootstrap. It integrates analytics tools like Google Analytics and Yandex Metrika and employs cookie consent mechanisms to comply with GDPR. The site is mobile-optimized and features a good user experience with clear navigation and product categorization. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and some security headers, but the underlying CMS version is outdated, which could pose risks if not properly patched. No immediate vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. Privacy policies and cookie banners indicate a baseline compliance with data protection regulations. Overall, Papirs.lv presents a professional and trustworthy online retail platform with moderate technical maturity and a solid business presence. Strategic improvements in CMS security and enhanced security headers would further strengthen its 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

9 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

    • 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. 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"

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

Papirs.lv operates in the retail sector focusing on office and packaging supplies, serving a medium-sized market primarily in Latvia. Its business model is e-commerce retail with a broad product range including paper products, labels, hygiene items, and packaging materials. The company targets both business clients and individual consumers, leveraging an online catalog and shopping cart system. The website's multilingual support and clear contact channels suggest a customer-centric approach. While no parent or subsidiary companies were identified, the site shows consistent branding and trust signals such as privacy policies and cookie consent. The use of Drupal 7 indicates some technical debt but also a stable platform for content management.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and some security headers present. The cookie consent mechanism and privacy policy reflect awareness of GDPR compliance. However, the use of Drupal 7, an older CMS version, introduces potential vulnerabilities if not regularly updated and patched. No direct security incidents or disclosures were found. The absence of a security.txt or vulnerability disclosure page limits transparency in incident response. Recommendations include upgrading the CMS, implementing additional security headers like Content-Security-Policy, and conducting regular security audits to mitigate risks.

Recommendations

  1. Upgrade Drupal CMS to the latest supported version or ensure all security patches are applied promptly.
  2. Implement additional HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options.
  3. Establish a public vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response.
  4. Enhance privacy compliance by detailing data retention policies and providing clearer user data management options.
  5. Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 7 CMS with extensive use of JavaScript libraries including jQuery, Bootstrap, Owl Carousel, and Google Tag Manager. The site is mobile responsive and uses modern web fonts from Google Fonts. Performance is moderate with deferred script loading and CSS aggregation. SEO is supported by canonical tags and meta viewport settings. Accessibility is basic but present. The hosting provider is not explicitly identified. The technical stack shows some legacy components (Drupal 7) which may require modernization to reduce technical debt and improve security.
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.
