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

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 Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

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

QMode operates in the niche plus size fashion retail sector within Latvia, focusing on women's apparel from size M to XXL. The business model is direct-to-consumer e-commerce via Shopify, supported by marketing tools such as Facebook Pixel and Google Analytics for customer insights and retargeting. The company targets a specific demographic, which may provide competitive advantage in the local market. The use of Weglot indicates an intent to serve multilingual customers. No parent or subsidiary relationships are evident. The business appears small but professionally managed with consistent branding and clear policies.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and employs cookie consent with granular user preferences, indicating awareness of privacy regulations. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not evident, which could enhance protection against common web attacks. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which is a gap in security transparency. Third-party scripts are numerous but from reputable sources. No exposed sensitive data or known vulnerabilities were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is good but could be improved with additional headers and documented incident response.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen web security.
  2. Publish a security.txt file or a dedicated vulnerability disclosure page to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  3. Provide clear and accessible contact information for customer support and security incidents to enhance trust.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to mitigate risks from external dependencies.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Shopify using the Dawn theme, with extensive use of JavaScript and third-party apps including Weglot for translations, PageFly for page building, and Globo for product filtering. The site loads multiple scripts asynchronously to optimize performance, though the overall loading speed is moderate. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design and font loading strategies. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph data. The technical stack is modern and well-integrated but could benefit from improved accessibility and security header implementation.
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.
