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

SIA APIKO is a Latvian small business specializing in accounting, auditing, and legal services tailored for companies operating in Latvia. Their website presents a professional image with clear descriptions of their key services including bookkeeping, mandatory and tax audits, and legal support such as company registration and contract drafting. The company targets local businesses seeking reliable financial and legal compliance assistance. The website is built using common frontend technologies like Bootstrap and jQuery, offering a moderate performance and good mobile optimization. However, the site lacks advanced security headers and privacy policies, which are important for compliance and trust. The absence of WHOIS data due to query limits limits full domain legitimacy verification, but the provided company registration and contact details support a moderate trust level. Overall, the business appears credible and focused on professional service delivery within its niche.

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

    • 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

    • High

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

APIKO operates in the finance and legal services sector, focusing on auditing, accounting, and legal support for Latvian companies. Their business model is service-oriented, targeting small to medium enterprises requiring compliance and financial oversight. The company emphasizes responsibility and timely delivery, with insurance coverage for professional liability. Their market position is that of a specialized local provider with a clear value proposition around quality and reliability. The presence of a Facebook page indicates some engagement with clients via social media. No partnerships or subsidiaries are indicated. The company’s revenue streams likely derive from service fees for accounting, auditing, and legal registrations. Growth indicators are not explicit but the website content suggests a stable, small-scale operation.

Security posture

The website currently demonstrates a basic security posture. It uses HTTPS (assumed but not explicitly confirmed in HTML), includes a contact form with client-side validation, and avoids exposing sensitive data in the HTML. However, no security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options are detected, which are important to mitigate common web attacks. There is no visible privacy or cookie policy, which is a compliance gap under GDPR. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, limiting transparency. The lack of WHOIS data reduces domain trustworthiness. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, with room for significant improvements in headers, policies, and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTPS with a strong SSL/TLS configuration and verify it is active site-wide.
  2. Add essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  4. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to enhance transparency and incident response readiness.
  5. Improve accessibility features and SEO optimization to enhance user experience and site visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a standard frontend stack with Bootstrap for responsive design, Font Awesome for icons, jQuery for DOM manipulation, and Animate.css and WOW.js for animations. The site is static HTML without a detected CMS, which reduces attack surface but may limit scalability. Performance is moderate with no explicit optimization techniques observed. The contact form uses client-side validation but no visible CAPTCHA or anti-spam measures. No analytics or tracking scripts are detected, indicating minimal user tracking. Hosting provider and backend infrastructure details are not discernible from the HTML. Overall, the technical implementation is solid for a small business site but could benefit from modern security and performance 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.
