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

    • 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"

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

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

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

Pelias operates as a small local service provider in the pest control sector within Latvia. Its business model focuses on direct service delivery to clients requiring pest extermination and control. The website's multilingual support and contact forms facilitate customer engagement and lead generation. The company appears to maintain a moderate online presence with social media integration (Facebook) and uses third-party marketing and analytics tools. No evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries was found. The business seems to be established since 2017, aligning with the website's published date. The lack of detailed WHOIS data limits deeper trust analysis but the domain and website content are consistent with a legitimate local business.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and integrates Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms from spam and abuse. However, no explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which could improve protection against common web attacks. There is no visible security policy or incident response contact information, which is a gap in transparency and readiness. The cookie consent banner complies with GDPR requirements to some extent, but the absence of a detailed privacy policy reduces compliance confidence. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were identified in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced by implementing recommended headers, publishing security policies, and maintaining updated software.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve legal compliance and user trust.
  3. Add a security.txt file and incident response contact details to facilitate vulnerability reporting and incident management.
  4. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using a combination of popular plugins such as WPBakery Page Builder, Slider Revolution, Contact Form 7, and Popup Maker. It uses jQuery and integrates Google services for analytics and tag management. The site loads CSS and JS assets optimized via LiteSpeed Cache. The presence of Google reCAPTCHA and GetButton.io widget indicates attention to user interaction and spam prevention. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization. However, no hosting provider information was found. The technical stack is modern and suitable for a small business website, though some improvements in security headers and accessibility could be made.
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.
