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

Prooftools SIA operates a Latvian e-commerce website specializing in the retail of tools and equipment, including battery-powered tools, heating devices, workshop equipment, and protective gear. The company targets both professional users and general consumers within Latvia, positioning itself as a regional retailer with a comprehensive online product catalog and customer support channels including WhatsApp. The website is multilingual, supporting Latvian, Russian, and English languages, enhancing accessibility to a broader audience. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with WooCommerce and Elementor, leveraging modern plugins and Google Analytics for tracking user interactions. Media assets are hosted on Amazon S3, indicating a cloud-based hosting approach for static content. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS, uses Google reCAPTCHA for form protection, and implements standard security headers, reflecting a good security posture. However, the absence of a visible cookie consent mechanism and detailed security or incident response policies suggests room for improvement in compliance and transparency. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain registration verification. Overall, the site presents as a professional, trustworthy small business e-commerce platform with moderate technical maturity and a solid foundation for further security and compliance enhancements.

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. 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

Prooftools SIA appears to be a small Latvian retailer focused on tools and equipment, operating primarily through an online store. The business model centers on e-commerce sales with a clear product catalog and customer engagement via multiple languages and contact channels. The presence of partner links to Latvian price comparison and shopping sites indicates integration within the local retail ecosystem. The company registration number and physical addresses are transparently displayed, supporting credibility. The use of popular WordPress plugins and Google Analytics suggests a standard but effective digital marketing and analytics approach. Growth potential may be tied to expanding product offerings and enhancing compliance and security transparency to build customer trust further.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good baseline security posture with enforced HTTPS, standard security headers, and use of Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate automated abuse. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response information, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms indicates limited maturity in security governance and transparency. The absence of a cookie consent banner may also represent a compliance gap under GDPR. Regular plugin audits and enhanced privacy and security documentation would strengthen the security culture and reduce risk exposure.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a visible cookie consent banner to ensure GDPR compliance and user transparency.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve trust and preparedness.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet broader compliance and usability standards.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of third-party plugins and update them promptly to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality and Elementor for page building. It integrates Google Analytics via MonsterInsights for user tracking and employs Google reCAPTCHA for form security. Media assets are hosted on Amazon S3, indicating a hybrid hosting approach. The site shows good SEO practices with proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Performance is moderate, with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility. There is potential to improve technical robustness by enhancing accessibility compliance and implementing more advanced privacy and security features.
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.
