Aivars Tipsis Photography is a professional photography service based in Riga, Latvia, offering a range of photographic services including product, advertising, portrait photography, photo editing, and training. The website serves as a portfolio and contact point for clients, showcasing high-quality images and providing multiple contact channels including phone, social media, and a contact form. The business targets local clients seeking professional photography solutions with personalized service. Technically, the website is built on the Wfolio platform, utilizing modern web technologies such as lazy loading and Google Fonts, with a responsive design optimized for desktop and mobile.

Overall, the site presents a professional and trustworthy image, though the absence of WHOIS data limits full domain legitimacy verification.

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

10 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

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. 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';…

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 as a small, essential entity in the photography sector, focusing on personalized client services in Riga. Its competitive advantage lies in over 20 years of experience and a comprehensive service offering including studio and on-location shoots. Revenue streams likely derive from photography sessions, photo sales, and training services. The company maintains an active social media presence on Facebook and Instagram, enhancing client engagement and marketing reach. The website's business model is service-oriented with direct client interaction. Growth indicators include a professional portfolio and clear contact mechanisms, though no partnerships or subsidiaries are evident. Strategic observations suggest maintaining and enhancing digital presence and security posture to support business credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and some security best practices such as form anti-spam measures. However, it lacks explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, which could improve protection against common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The absence of a security policy, incident response contact, or vulnerability disclosure mechanism indicates gaps in compliance and readiness. GDPR compliance is indicated by the presence of privacy and cookie policies. The security culture appears basic but functional, suitable for a small business. Enhancements in security headers, DNSSEC, and incident response transparency are recommended to strengthen the security posture.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy to enhance web security.
  2. Enable DNSSEC to improve domain name system security and prevent spoofing.
  3. Create and publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve incident response readiness.
  4. Add explicit incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate risks from vulnerable components.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Wfolio platform, leveraging modern web standards including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. It uses Google Fonts and Font Awesome for typography and icons, and LazySizes for efficient image loading. The site is responsive and optimized for mobile devices, with good SEO practices including meta tags and Open Graph data. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed and accessibility features. No major technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected. The absence of advanced analytics or marketing tools suggests a focus on organic reach and direct client engagement. Technical risks are minimal but could be reduced further by implementing recommended security enhancements.
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.
