Risk levelMedium

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

The website travelingmacaron.com is a small Latvian e-commerce site specializing in French macarons, likely targeting consumers interested in artisanal confectionery. The site is built on WordPress using WooCommerce and Elementor, indicating a standard e-commerce platform with multilingual support via TranslatePress. The technical infrastructure is modern but basic, with moderate performance and good mobile optimization. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and domain transfer protection, but lacks DNSSEC and security headers, which are recommended for enhanced protection. Privacy compliance is weak due to absence of privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the site is functional and professionally designed but would benefit from improved security and compliance measures.

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. 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

The business operates in the hospitality sector focusing on niche artisanal food products. The market positioning is that of a small, specialized retailer with a focus on French macarons. The business model is direct-to-consumer e-commerce. There is no evidence of parent or subsidiary companies. The site targets Latvian-speaking consumers with some English elements, indicating a regional focus. The use of WooCommerce and Elementor suggests a cost-effective, scalable platform. No explicit trust indicators such as certifications or testimonials were found, which could be improved to enhance credibility.

Security posture

The security maturity level is basic. HTTPS is enforced, and domain transfer protection is active, which are positive indicators. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces the overall security posture. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which limits transparency. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. The site should implement security best practices and improve privacy disclosures to meet GDPR and other compliance requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve domain security.
  2. Implement standard security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  4. Add a security.txt file and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Enhance trust indicators by adding certifications, customer testimonials, and verified contact information.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a WordPress CMS with WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality and Elementor for page building. It leverages Google Fonts and TranslatePress for multilingual support. The site is moderately performant with good mobile responsiveness. However, there is no evidence of advanced caching or CDN usage in the HTML content. The site lacks DNSSEC and security headers, which are technical risks. The domain is registered with a reputable registrar and has clientTransferProhibited status, which is positive. Overall, the technical infrastructure is standard for a small e-commerce site but could be improved with enhanced security 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.
