Risk levelHigh

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

A.B.A Būve is a small Latvian construction and renovation service provider specializing in a wide range of finishing works such as painting, laminate and flooring installation, drywall and plastering, door and window fitting, and tile work. The company targets residential and commercial property owners in Latvia, offering tailored cost estimates based on project photos and descriptions. The website reflects a local business with a clear service offering and contact information, positioning itself as a reliable regional contractor. Technically, the website uses common JavaScript libraries like jQuery and ColorBox for UI enhancements and includes responsive design elements for mobile users. However, no CMS or advanced frameworks are detected, and performance is moderate. SEO is adequately addressed with meta tags and Open Graph data, but accessibility features are basic. The site lacks advanced security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies, indicating room for improvement in compliance and security posture. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS but does not present additional security headers or incident response information. No forms collecting sensitive data are present, reducing immediate risk. The absence of privacy and cookie policies, along with missing WHOIS transparency due to query limits, lowers the overall trust score. No vulnerabilities or suspicious content were detected. The business appears legitimate but would benefit from enhanced security and compliance measures. Overall, the website is functional and professional but shows gaps in privacy compliance and security best practices. Strategic improvements in these areas would enhance trustworthiness and regulatory adherence.

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

11 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

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

A.B.A Būve operates in the local Latvian construction sector, focusing on finishing and renovation services. Its competitive advantage lies in personalized service with cost estimates based on client-provided photos and descriptions. The business model is service-oriented with direct customer engagement via phone, email, and social media. The company appears to have stable local market positioning as a small enterprise founded in 2017. Partnerships include a web development company (MegaSoft). Revenue streams likely derive from project-based contracts. The target customers are property owners seeking quality renovation work. Growth indicators are not explicit but the website content and social media presence suggest active customer engagement. The lack of detailed business certifications or advanced digital marketing tools indicates a traditional operational approach.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is basic. HTTPS is enabled, but no additional security headers are detected, which could expose the site to clickjacking, MIME sniffing, or other web attacks. No forms or inputs collecting sensitive data reduce exposure to injection or data leakage risks. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. Incident response readiness is not evident, with no security or abuse contact information provided. No vulnerabilities or malware indicators were found in the content. Overall, the security culture appears minimal but adequate for a small local business. Improvements in security headers, privacy compliance, and incident response would strengthen the posture.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and enhance user trust.
  3. Add a security.txt file or dedicated security contact email to improve incident response readiness.
  4. Regularly review and update SSL/TLS configuration to ensure strong encryption and prevent vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance website accessibility and SEO by adopting ARIA roles and semantic HTML improvements.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using standard web technologies including jQuery and ColorBox for UI effects, Normalize.css for CSS reset, and Fontello for icon fonts. No CMS or advanced frameworks are detected, suggesting a custom or lightweight platform. The site is mobile responsive with separate mobile and desktop elements. Performance is moderate with no obvious broken elements. SEO is supported by meta tags and Open Graph data. However, the absence of security headers and privacy compliance features indicates technical debt in security and regulatory areas. Hosting provider and infrastructure details are not available. Overall, the technical implementation is functional but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security controls.
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.
