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

Artis Zelmenis operates a small Latvian-based business website offering a variety of services including web development, SEO, legal assistance, photography, advertising, and educational content. The site targets local SMEs, individuals, and students, providing multilingual content in English, Latvian, and Russian. The business appears niche-focused with a stable presence since 2012. Technically, the website uses standard JavaScript libraries and social media SDKs for Facebook, Twitter, VK, and Draugiem.lv, alongside Google Analytics for traffic monitoring. The site shows moderate performance and basic mobile optimization but lacks modern frameworks or CMS indications. SEO is reasonably addressed with meta tags and multilingual support. Security posture is moderate but with notable gaps: no visible HTTPS enforcement, absence of security headers, and use of some HTTP resources that may cause mixed content issues. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Contact information is limited to a contact form without explicit emails or phone numbers. Overall, the website is functional and professional but requires improvements in security, privacy compliance, and technical modernization to enhance trust and user safety.

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

13 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 is positioned as a local service provider in Latvia, focusing on web presence enhancement and related services. Its competitive advantage lies in offering a broad service portfolio including legal and photography services alongside web development and SEO. The multilingual approach broadens its target audience. Revenue likely derives from service fees for web projects, advertising, and legal consultations. The partnership ecosystem is limited with no explicit partners or subsidiaries. Growth indicators are moderate with a stable domain age and consistent content updates. Strategically, the business could benefit from formalizing privacy and security policies, expanding direct contact channels, and enhancing technical infrastructure to compete effectively in the digital services market.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security maturity level with no critical vulnerabilities detected in the visible content. However, the lack of HTTPS enforcement and security headers exposes users to potential risks such as man-in-the-middle attacks and clickjacking. The use of HTTP resources alongside HTTPS content may trigger browser warnings and reduce user trust. There is no evidence of incident response policies or security certifications. GDPR compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. The business impact of these gaps includes potential data exposure, reduced user trust, and non-compliance with EU regulations. Incident response readiness appears minimal, with no dedicated security contact channels. Overall, the security culture seems informal and could be significantly improved.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS site-wide with valid SSL certificates and enforce redirects from HTTP to HTTPS.
  2. Add essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Develop and publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR requirements.
  4. Avoid loading scripts and resources over HTTP to prevent mixed content issues.
  5. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and publish security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional HTML structure with embedded JavaScript libraries for social media integration and analytics. The tech stack includes Google Analytics, Facebook SDK, Twitter widgets, VK API, and Draugiem.lv API. There is no indication of a modern CMS or framework, suggesting a custom or static site approach. Performance is moderate with asynchronous script loading but some external HTTP resources may slow or block content loading. Mobile optimization is basic with no explicit responsive design frameworks detected. Accessibility features are minimal. SEO is supported by meta tags and multilingual alternate links. Technical debt is moderate due to outdated resource loading practices and lack of security best practices. Modernization opportunities include adopting HTTPS, improving mobile responsiveness, and integrating a CMS or framework for easier maintenance.
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.
