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

9 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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  2. 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 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 clinic operates in the healthcare sector, focusing on patient-centered services with a local market position in Latvia. It leverages certified specialists and modern medical technologies to differentiate itself. The business model is service-oriented, targeting individuals seeking quality medical care. The website's content and structure suggest a small-sized enterprise with a professional online presence. Social media engagement on platforms like TikTok and Facebook supports community outreach and marketing efforts. The absence of detailed business registration or contact information on the site limits deeper business intelligence insights. No partnerships or subsidiaries were identified from the website content.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security posture with HTTPS enabled and CSRF protection evident. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces its defense-in-depth. No explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are published, indicating gaps in security governance and transparency. The site does not expose sensitive data or show signs of vulnerabilities in the analyzed content. Privacy compliance is partially addressed with cookie and privacy policies, but GDPR compliance indicators are minimal. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for a small healthcare provider but could benefit from enhancements in policy publication and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure essential security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to improve protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and trust.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users, including those with disabilities.
  5. Improve SEO by adding Open Graph tags and structured data to increase search engine visibility and social media sharing quality.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack with ES modules, Font Awesome 6, Google Fonts, and Laravel's Ziggy routing helper, indicating a contemporary and maintainable codebase. The site loads CSS and JS assets efficiently with preloading and module preloading techniques. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. Mobile responsiveness is good, and the design is professional and consistent. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved. SEO optimization is minimal with no Open Graph or JSON-LD structured data present. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the provided data. Overall, the technical implementation supports a solid user experience but can be enhanced with additional SEO and accessibility improvements.
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.
