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

Akatrans is a medium-sized transportation and logistics company operating primarily in Latvia with regional presence in Lithuania, Estonia, and Bulgaria. The company offers thermo cargo transport, worldwide parcel shipments through its partner A Loģistika, and insurance brokerage services via AKA Insurance. The website reflects a professional business model targeting corporate and individual clients requiring cargo and parcel transport as well as insurance brokerage. The multilingual site and multiple country offices indicate a well-established regional footprint. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern plugins such as Yoast SEO and uses various JavaScript libraries for UI and mapping. The site is mobile optimized and SEO friendly, though some performance improvements could be made. Google Tag Manager is implemented but Google Analytics is not fully configured. The site uses HTTPS with good SSL configuration but lacks some advanced security headers. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates basic good practices including secure login forms and cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR. However, no explicit security policy or incident response contacts are published, and WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, which limits full domain trust verification. Overall, the site appears legitimate and professionally maintained with moderate security posture. Strategically, Akatrans should enhance security headers, fully configure analytics, and publish clear security and incident response policies to improve trust and compliance. Regular plugin audits and WHOIS transparency would further strengthen legitimacy and security posture.

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. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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 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

Akatrans operates in the transportation and logistics sector with a diversified service offering including cargo transport, parcel shipments, and insurance brokerage. The company leverages partnerships with alogistika.lv and akainsurance.lv to extend its service portfolio. The business model focuses on regional markets in the Baltics and Bulgaria, targeting businesses and individuals needing reliable transport and insurance services. The website's multilingual support and multiple physical offices demonstrate a strategic approach to regional market penetration. The company appears to maintain a moderate size with professional branding and consistent messaging. Revenue streams likely derive from transport contracts, parcel shipment fees, and insurance brokerage commissions. The partnership ecosystem is clearly integrated into the website navigation and branding, supporting cross-selling opportunities.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses secure login forms, indicating a baseline security maturity. Cookie consent is implemented, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. The lack of explicit security policies and incident response contacts suggests limited transparency in security governance. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The use of third-party scripts and plugins requires ongoing monitoring to mitigate risks. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved by adopting additional security headers, publishing security policies, and enhancing incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information on the website to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Fully configure Google Analytics or remove unused tracking plugins to reduce unnecessary attack surface.
  4. Conduct regular security audits of WordPress plugins and themes to identify and remediate vulnerabilities.
  5. Increase WHOIS transparency by avoiding privacy protection or providing verified registrant information to enhance legitimacy.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern tech stack including Yoast SEO for optimization, jQuery and jQuery UI for interactive elements, Leaflet.js for mapping, and various UI enhancement plugins like Chosen and Fancybox. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tags, though Google Analytics is not fully configured. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) for enhanced search engine understanding. Performance is moderate with potential for optimization. Accessibility features are basic but present. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional business website but could benefit from performance tuning and enhanced security configurations.
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.
