VYNOTEKA is a Latvian retail company specializing in alcoholic beverages including wines, spirits, beers, and ciders, complemented by related food products. The company operates both physical stores and an online platform, targeting adult consumers in Latvia. The website is professionally designed with clear navigation, age verification for alcohol sales, and comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, reflecting compliance with local regulations. Technically, the site uses modern JavaScript frameworks such as Vue.js and integrates marketing and analytics tools like Google Analytics, Inspectlet, and Omnisend. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, though additional security headers could enhance protection.

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

  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

      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

VYNOTEKA holds a solid market position as a medium-sized retailer in Latvia, focusing on alcoholic beverages and complementary food products. Its business model combines physical retail stores with an e-commerce platform, offering a wide product range and special promotions. The company targets adult consumers, including corporate clients for event beverage supply. The website's integration of subscription services and social media channels indicates active customer engagement and marketing efforts. The absence of WHOIS data limits insights into corporate structure or ownership, but the consistent branding and contact details support business credibility. The company leverages modern web technologies and marketing tools to maintain competitive digital presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and an age verification modal to comply with alcohol sales regulations. Cookie consent management is implemented, reflecting GDPR awareness. However, the absence of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could enhance transparency and trust. No vulnerabilities or malware indicators were detected in the content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a retail e-commerce site but could benefit from enhanced security controls and published policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan accessible on the website to improve transparency and customer trust.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and ensure compliance with GDPR.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic security assessments to maintain and improve overall site security and user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Vue.js framework, leveraging modern JavaScript and CSS assets for responsive and interactive user experience. It integrates Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Inspectlet for user behavior tracking, Cookiebot for cookie consent management, and Omnisend for marketing automation. The site is mobile optimized with responsive images and layouts. Performance is moderate with preloading of fonts and images, though some improvements could be made in accessibility and SEO metadata completeness. No CMS is explicitly detected. Hosting provider details are not available from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional retail e-commerce platform with room for optimization in security headers and accessibility.
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.
