Ekonomikas un Kultūras augstskola · Education · Latvia
Low risk. No critical or high findings.
Ekonomikas un Kultūras augstskola (EKA) is a Latvian higher education institution providing a broad range of study programs in economics, culture, business, law, IT, and design. The website presents a professional and content-rich platform targeting prospective students with detailed program information, flexible study options including distance learning, and scholarship opportunities. The institution maintains a moderate international presence through Erasmus+ and research collaborations. Technically, the website uses a custom stack with jQuery, Font Awesome, and third-party embedded forms from Zoho, delivering a good user experience with mobile optimization and clear navigation. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms but lacks explicit security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is well addressed with GDPR-aligned cookie and privacy notices. Overall, the domain registration data aligns with the business claims, supporting legitimacy and trustworthiness.

NIS2 Art. 21(2)
The NIS2 figure counts only evidence anyone can see from the internet. 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.
No critical or high findings. These medium findings are worth fixing next.
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.
Without HSTS, a visitor who types the address or follows an http:// link makes a first request over plain HTTP, which an attacker on the same network can intercept and keep unencrypted (SSL stripping).
What to do: Send "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains" on HTTPS responses once every subdomain works over HTTPS (use max-age=31536000 alone otherwise).
No Content-Security-Policy is set, so if an attacker manages to inject a script (cross-site scripting), the browser runs it with full access to the page.
What to do: Start with "Content-Security-Policy: object-src 'none'; base-uri 'self'; frame-ancestors 'self'" and add a script-src that lists your script origins or uses nonces. Test with a Report-Only header first.
Other websites can load your pages inside an invisible frame and trick visitors into clicking buttons on them (clickjacking).
What to do: Send "Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'self'" (or X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN for older browsers).
Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.
Port 21 (FTP, Pure-FTPd) is reachable from the internet. FTP sends logins and files unencrypted and is a frequent brute-force target.
What to do: Block port 21 at the firewall and reach FTP through a VPN or private network instead.
Outdated scripts and CMS versions are how most small-business sites get compromised; a security.txt file tells researchers where to report what they find.
jquery 1.11.0 (detected in the page) has 5 published vulnerabilities: CVE-2015-9251, GHSA-rmxg-73gg-4p98, CVE-2019-11358, GHSA-6c3j-c64m-qhgq, CVE-2020-11023, GHSA-jpcq-cgw6-v4j6.
What to do: Upgrade jquery to 3.5.0 or later and retest the pages that use it.

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.
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
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.
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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.
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.
