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

Valnes is a medium-sized company specializing in modern access and security systems, including smart locks, door hardware, and access control solutions primarily serving Latvia and Estonia. The company operates an e-commerce platform alongside physical offices in Tallinn and Riga, targeting architects, designers, business clients, and end consumers. Their product portfolio includes design handles, smart locks, door automation, and evacuation door solutions, positioning them as a trusted regional player in the security hardware retail sector. Technically, the website leverages modern web technologies such as Laravel Livewire, Alpine.js, and integrates Google reCAPTCHA for security. The site is well-structured, mobile-optimized, and includes comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with consent mechanisms, reflecting good digital maturity. Security posture is solid with HTTPS enforced and anti-bot protections, though explicit HTTP security headers and a dedicated security policy page are absent. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain trust analysis, but the website's professional content, contact information, and certifications support legitimacy. Overall, the site presents a trustworthy and professional digital presence with room for security policy enhancements.

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

  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

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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

Valnes operates in the retail and technology sectors, focusing on security hardware and access control solutions. Their business model combines e-commerce with B2B sales and physical retail presence. The company targets professional audiences such as architects and designers as well as business clients and consumers. Their market position is strengthened by regional offices and membership in the Estonian Security Companies Association. The product range and digital presence indicate a stable revenue stream from hardware sales and smart lock solutions. Partnerships with WebLock and industry associations enhance their ecosystem. Growth indicators include active social media engagement and special offers. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to expand digital marketing and enhance security transparency to further build customer trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, integration of Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect forms, and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR. However, the absence of explicit HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options represents a gap that could be exploited. No visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The lack of a dedicated security policy or incident response contact reduces transparency and preparedness for security incidents. Data protection practices appear compliant with GDPR, supported by clear privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be improved by implementing additional HTTP headers and publishing incident response information.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page detailing incident response procedures and security contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  5. Consider integrating analytics with privacy-respecting configurations to better understand user behavior while maintaining GDPR compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using a modern technology stack including Laravel Livewire for reactive components, Alpine.js for frontend interactivity, and jQuery for legacy support. It uses popular libraries such as Slick Carousel for UI elements and Leaflet.js for mapping features. Google Fonts and CDN-hosted CSS/JS assets optimize loading times. The site is mobile-optimized and includes cookie consent and reCAPTCHA for security and compliance. Performance is moderate with room for improvement in SEO and accessibility. No CMS is explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or framework-based solution. Hosting provider details are not available. The technical infrastructure supports a professional e-commerce experience but could benefit from enhanced security headers and performance tuning.
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.
