Risk levelHigh

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

The website puscena.lv represents a Latvian furniture and interior goods retail business operating primarily as a clearance warehouse in Riga. It offers a wide range of European-made furniture products through an online catalog powered by Joomla CMS and VirtueMart e-commerce platform. The site targets local Latvian customers seeking discounted quality furniture from countries like Germany, Denmark, Netherlands, and Italy. Social media presence and contact details are clearly provided, supporting customer engagement and trust. Technically, the website uses a mature Joomla CMS with multiple extensions and frameworks such as Helix3 and VirtueMart. It incorporates modern web technologies including Bootstrap, jQuery, Font Awesome, and Google Fonts. Analytics tools like Google Analytics and Yandex Metrika are integrated for user tracking and performance monitoring. The site is mobile optimized with a responsive design, though some Joomla system errors are present which may affect stability or security. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and includes a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, no advanced security headers were detected, and visible Joomla errors suggest potential misconfigurations. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain trust verification. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved by addressing CMS errors and implementing additional security headers. The overall risk assessment indicates a legitimate retail business with a professional online presence but with room for technical and security enhancements. Strategic recommendations include fixing CMS errors, enhancing security headers, and ensuring regular updates to maintain compliance and protect customer data.

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

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  3. 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

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

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

Puscena.lv operates in the Latvian retail furniture sector with a focus on clearance and discounted European furniture. Its competitive advantage lies in offering quality furniture from multiple European countries at reduced prices, appealing to budget-conscious consumers. The business model combines online catalog browsing with physical warehouse sales, supported by clear contact channels and social media engagement. Revenue streams are primarily product sales, with potential upselling through new arrivals and special offers. The company targets local residents in Riga and surrounding areas, leveraging digital marketing and analytics to optimize customer reach. Growth indicators include a broad product range and active social media presence. Partnerships with financing services (mans.aizdevums.lv) and listing on kurpirkt.lv suggest a connected ecosystem enhancing customer convenience.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, indicating awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. Visible Joomla CMS errors related to folder creation loops and empty slugs may expose vulnerabilities or operational risks. No dedicated security or incident response policies are published, and no security.txt or vulnerability disclosure information is available. Data protection officer contact is not found, which may be a compliance gap under GDPR. Overall, while basic security measures are in place, the site would benefit from enhanced hardening, error resolution, and formalized security governance.

Recommendations

  1. Resolve Joomla CMS errors to prevent potential security and operational issues.
  2. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Regularly update Joomla core and extensions to latest secure versions.
  4. Publish or enhance privacy and security policies including incident response and vulnerability disclosure.
  5. Establish a data protection officer contact to improve GDPR compliance and customer trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Joomla CMS with VirtueMart e-commerce extension, using Helix3 template framework. It employs jQuery, Bootstrap, Font Awesome, and Google Fonts for UI and responsiveness. Analytics integration includes Google Analytics and Yandex Metrika. The site is mobile optimized and has a clear navigation structure. However, Joomla system errors indicate technical debt or misconfiguration. No advanced security headers are detected, and WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid but requires maintenance and security improvements to ensure reliability and compliance.
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.
