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

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

    • 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

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

StereoPlus holds a niche market position as a specialized audio equipment retailer in Latvia, leveraging a broad brand portfolio and a combination of online and physical retail channels. The business model focuses on direct sales of audio products, supported by a well-structured e-commerce platform. The company targets audiophiles and consumers seeking premium audio solutions. The website's integration with marketing and analytics tools indicates a data-driven approach to customer engagement. Absence of detailed WHOIS data limits insights into company registration and ownership, but the professional web presence and contact information support credibility. Growth potential exists through enhanced digital marketing and expanded online services.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled, appropriate security headers, and use of reCAPTCHA to protect forms. Cookie consent is implemented with blocking mechanisms, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of explicit privacy, security, and incident response policies represents a compliance gap. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The site would benefit from publishing a security.txt file and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and incident handling readiness. Regular updates and monitoring of plugins and themes are recommended to maintain security.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to enhance legal compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting and incident response.
  3. Enhance website accessibility features to improve usability for all users.
  4. Maintain regular updates of WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate security risks.
  5. Expand contact information with verified company emails and physical addresses to improve business credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality, utilizing popular plugins such as WPBakery Page Builder and Slider Revolution for content management and presentation. It integrates Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for tracking and marketing analytics. The site uses reCAPTCHA for bot protection and a cookie consent plugin for GDPR compliance. Performance is moderate with good mobile responsiveness. SEO is supported by Yoast SEO plugin and proper meta tags. Accessibility is basic and could be improved. Hosting provider details are not evident from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and suitable for a small to medium-sized retail business.
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.
