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

SONEL operates as a regional e-commerce retailer specializing in plumbing, bathroom fixtures, tiles, and related accessories primarily targeting the Latvian market. The website is built on WordPress with WooCommerce, providing a comprehensive product catalog and online shopping experience. The technical infrastructure leverages modern web technologies including jQuery, CookieYes for consent management, and Facebook Pixel for marketing analytics. The site is mobile optimized and demonstrates good SEO practices with structured data and meta tags. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented; however, the absence of security headers and explicit privacy policy pages indicates room for improvement. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain trust verification. Overall, the site presents a professional and trustworthy front for its business operations.

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. 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: 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

SONEL's market positioning as a specialized plumbing and bathroom product retailer in Latvia is supported by a detailed product taxonomy and brand listings. The business model is e-commerce retail with a focus on consumer and professional customers seeking quality sanitary products. The website's use of structured data and SEO plugins suggests an intent to capture organic search traffic effectively. The presence of multiple well-known brands indicates strong supplier relationships. However, the lack of visible contact information and privacy policy may affect customer trust and compliance. The company appears medium-sized with a consistent brand presence online.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR principles, indicating a baseline privacy and security awareness. The use of Facebook Pixel introduces tracking considerations, but no explicit analytics services like Google Analytics were detected. The absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The lack of a security.txt or vulnerability disclosure policy limits transparency for security researchers. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be enhanced with additional headers, documented policies, and regular security audits.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to improve site security.
  2. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the homepage to enhance compliance and user trust.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve security transparency.
  4. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet WCAG standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.2 with WooCommerce 9.6.2, using jQuery 3.5.1 and several plugins including CookieYes for cookie consent and FacetWP for faceted search. The site uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and Open Graph meta tags for social media integration. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. The site loads external scripts from reputable CDNs and tracking services. No hosting provider information was detected. The technical implementation is modern but could benefit from enhanced security headers and performance optimizations.
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.
