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

Powershop.lv is a Latvian e-commerce retailer specializing in laptop accessories such as batteries, laptop chargers, and universal chargers. The website targets consumers in Latvia looking for quality laptop replacement parts and accessories. The business operates a small-scale online store with a clear product catalog and localized focus. The website is professionally designed with good navigation and mobile optimization, providing a positive user experience. However, the absence of a privacy policy and terms of service pages indicates room for improvement in compliance and transparency. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies including Google Fonts, FontAwesome icons, and slick carousel for UI elements. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS usage implied but lacking explicit security headers and documented security policies. Contact information is clearly provided, enhancing business credibility. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain registration trust analysis. Overall, the site is safe, functional, and moderately trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced security and compliance documentation.

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

8 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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)

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 · found on this site
  • 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 positions itself as a niche retailer in the Latvian market for laptop accessories, leveraging an e-commerce model to reach local consumers. Its competitive advantage lies in specialized product offerings and localized service including delivery in Riga. Revenue streams are likely from direct online sales. The website shows evidence of customer engagement through product reviews and social sharing options. The business ecosystem appears limited to direct retail without visible partnerships or subsidiaries. Growth indicators are not explicit but the presence of multiple product categories and promotional offers suggests active marketing efforts. Strategic observations include the need to improve transparency with privacy and terms policies and to enhance security posture to build greater customer trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is used, ensuring encrypted communications, but no explicit security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS were detected in the HTML content. There is no published security policy or incident response contact information, which limits preparedness and transparency. The cookie consent banner indicates some GDPR awareness but the absence of a privacy policy reduces compliance confidence. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were observed in the HTML content. The site uses standard web technologies without known vulnerable libraries. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small e-commerce site but improvements in security headers, policy publication, and incident response readiness are recommended to reduce risk and enhance customer trust.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve legal compliance and customer trust.
  2. Implement and configure security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add explicit incident response and security contact information to facilitate vulnerability reporting and incident management.
  4. Conduct a security audit to ensure all forms have proper CSRF protection and input validation to prevent injection attacks.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO metadata to improve user experience and search engine visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end technology stack including Google Fonts, FontAwesome icons, and slick carousel for interactive UI components. The HTML structure is well-formed with responsive design elements supporting mobile devices. SEO is supported by meta tags for description, keywords, and viewport settings. The site lacks visible CMS indicators, suggesting a custom or lightweight platform. Performance appears moderate with lazy loading of images and deferred script loading. No hosting provider or server technology details are evident from the HTML content. Technical risks include missing security headers and incomplete privacy/compliance documentation. Opportunities exist to modernize security configurations and enhance accessibility and SEO for better business outcomes.
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.
