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

Petline.lv is a Latvian e-commerce website specializing in pet supplies including food, accessories, and hygiene products for various animals such as dogs, cats, birds, rodents, and farm animals. The site uses WordPress with WooCommerce and Elementor, indicating a modern and flexible technical infrastructure suitable for retail operations. The website is well-structured with clear navigation and a professional design, targeting pet owners primarily in Latvia and the Baltic region. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and secure forms, but lacks some advanced security headers and a cookie consent mechanism. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting full domain trust verification. Overall, the site appears legitimate and functional with room for security and compliance improvements.

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.

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

    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

The business operates as a regional online retailer in the pet supplies sector, leveraging WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality. The product catalog is extensive, covering multiple pet categories and subcategories, indicating a broad market approach. The absence of explicit contact emails or phone numbers on the main pages suggests reliance on contact forms and user accounts for customer interaction. The use of translation tools like GTranslate suggests an intent to serve multilingual customers. The business model is straightforward retail with potential for growth through enhanced digital marketing and security compliance.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and secure login/registration forms, which are positive security indicators. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The absence of a security.txt file or incident response contact channels indicates limited formal security governance. GDPR compliance is supported by a comprehensive privacy policy but lacks a cookie consent mechanism. Overall, the security maturity is moderate with opportunities for improvement in headers, policies, and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner to comply fully with GDPR and improve user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a security.txt file and incident response policy to facilitate vulnerability reporting and demonstrate security governance.
  4. Regularly audit and update all WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate risks from outdated components.
  5. Enhance contact information visibility by adding verified company emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and customer trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with WooCommerce for e-commerce and Elementor for page building, supported by jQuery and Select2 libraries. It uses specialized plugins for shipping (Omniva, DPD Baltic) and translation (GTranslate). The theme is XStore, a popular WooCommerce theme. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and prefetching of fonts. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. Hosting provider details are not disclosed in the HTML content. Overall, the technical stack is modern and suitable for an online retail business but requires ongoing maintenance and security enhancements.
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.
