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

Latvijas Sāls Tirdzniecības Kompānija operates as a salt trading company based in Latvia, specializing in various salt products including kosher salt, Himalayan salt, sea salt, and salts tailored for culinary, industrial, agricultural, and other uses. The website presents a clear business focus on salt sales targeting both consumers and businesses within Latvia and potentially neighboring regions. The company appears to be a small-sized local player with a straightforward product offering and a business model centered on product sales and distribution. The website is built using Adobe Muse CMS and incorporates older technologies such as jQuery 1.8.3, alongside Google Analytics and Tag Manager for user tracking. While the site is accessible and provides essential contact information, it lacks comprehensive privacy and security policies, which impacts its compliance posture. The cookie consent mechanism is implemented, indicating some awareness of privacy requirements. Security-wise, the use of outdated libraries and absence of security headers suggest room for improvement. Overall, the website is functional and professional but would benefit from modernization and enhanced security and privacy practices.

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.

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

  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

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

The company positions itself as a specialized salt supplier catering to diverse sectors including food production, agriculture, industry, and road maintenance. Its competitive advantage lies in offering a variety of salt types for different applications, including kosher and Himalayan salts, which may appeal to niche markets. The business model is straightforward, focusing on direct sales and distribution. The website targets local and regional customers, with content primarily in Latvian and options for English and Russian, indicating a regional market focus. The presence of contact details and a cookie consent banner reflects basic operational maturity. However, the absence of detailed corporate information, certifications, or partnerships limits deeper insights into its market reach and growth potential.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS presumably enabled (though SSL configuration details are not provided). The presence of a cookie consent banner aligns with privacy compliance efforts. However, the use of an outdated jQuery version (1.8.3) introduces potential vulnerabilities. No security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options were detected, which are important for mitigating common web attacks. There is no visible security or incident response policy, nor contact channels for security issues. The lack of a privacy policy and terms of service pages further indicates compliance gaps. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, with clear opportunities for improvement to reduce risk and enhance trust.

Recommendations

  1. Update all JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to current supported versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  3. Add essential security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to harden the website against attacks.
  4. Ensure SSL/TLS configuration is strong and enforce HTTPS site-wide.
  5. Establish and communicate incident response procedures and security contact channels to enhance security posture and transparency.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Adobe Muse CMS, which is a design-focused platform but may limit advanced technical capabilities and modern development practices. The tech stack includes jQuery 1.8.3, which is outdated and potentially vulnerable. Google Analytics and Tag Manager are used for analytics and marketing purposes. The site appears moderately optimized for mobile devices and has a good design quality and navigation clarity. However, accessibility features are basic, and SEO optimization is minimal. Performance is moderate, likely impacted by legacy scripts and lack of modern optimization techniques. There is no evidence of advanced frameworks or hosting provider details. Technical debt is present due to outdated libraries and missing security best practices, which could impact business operations if exploited.
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.
