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

Riepas.com is an established Latvian e-commerce platform specializing in the sale of tires and wheels for various vehicle types, including passenger cars, SUVs, commercial vehicles, and motorcycles. Founded in 2001, the company offers a broad selection of popular tire brands such as Michelin, Goodyear, Kumho, and Jinyu, alongside tire fitting services. The website targets vehicle owners primarily in Latvia, providing a user-friendly interface with search functionalities by tire size and car details. The business model focuses on retail sales combined with service offerings, positioning itself as a reliable regional player in the automotive aftermarket sector. Technically, the website employs a mix of modern tracking and marketing technologies including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, HubSpot, and Zendesk Chat, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. The site is mobile-optimized with good navigation and SEO practices, although the CMS platform is not explicitly identified. Hosting and domain registration are stable and consistent with the business age, but DNSSEC is not enabled, representing a minor security gap. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and has domain transfer protections in place, but lacks visible security headers and published security or privacy policies. Cookie consent mechanisms are implemented, reflecting some GDPR awareness. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is available, which could be improved to enhance trust and compliance. Overall, the security posture is moderate with room for enhancement in policy transparency and technical safeguards. The overall risk assessment suggests a trustworthy and professional business with a solid market presence but with opportunities to strengthen privacy compliance and security best practices. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, publishing comprehensive privacy and security policies, implementing security headers, and enhancing incident response readiness to align with industry standards and regulatory requirements.

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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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

Riepas.com operates in the transportation sector as a medium-sized business focused on tire and wheel retail and services. Its market positioning leverages a long-standing domain and a wide product range featuring well-known brands, catering to a regional customer base. The business model combines e-commerce with physical service offerings such as tire fitting, which diversifies revenue streams and enhances customer engagement. The website's multilingual support (Latvian, English, Russian) indicates an intent to serve a broader audience. The presence of multiple marketing and analytics tools suggests active customer acquisition and retention strategies. However, the absence of detailed corporate information, certifications, or partnerships limits deeper insights into its competitive advantages or growth trajectory.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is implied and domain transfer protection is enabled, which are positive indicators. However, the lack of DNSSEC implementation and absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, or HSTS reduce the overall security robustness. No explicit privacy policy or terms of service pages were found, which is a compliance gap under GDPR. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not published, limiting transparency and preparedness. The use of multiple third-party tracking and marketing scripts increases the attack surface and privacy risks if not properly managed. Overall, while no critical vulnerabilities were detected, the site would benefit from enhanced security controls and policy disclosures to improve trust and regulatory compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve DNS security.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to meet GDPR and consumer protection requirements.
  3. Implement standard security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  4. Establish and publish an incident response policy and contact channels for security issues to enhance transparency and readiness.
  5. Review and minimize third-party tracking scripts to reduce privacy risks and improve site performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of JavaScript libraries and third-party services including Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, HubSpot, and Zendesk Chat, indicating a modern but somewhat complex tech stack. The site is mobile-optimized and uses SVG graphics for UI elements, enhancing visual quality and responsiveness. The CMS is not explicitly identified, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. Performance appears moderate with some optimization (e.g., use of pagespeed image optimization). However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers indicates technical debt in security infrastructure. The domain is registered with a reputable registrar and has a long history, which supports stability. Opportunities exist to modernize security configurations and improve privacy compliance to reduce technical risks impacting business continuity.
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.
