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

SIA AV DESIGN is a small Latvian company specializing in professional audio-visual (AV) solutions including consulting, design, installation, and maintenance services. The website presents a clear business focus on AV technology for conferencing, video, and audio systems, targeting businesses and organizations requiring such professional services. The company collaborates with architects and integrators and offers technical evaluations and acoustic projects. The market position appears niche and specialized within Latvia. Technically, the website is built on WordPress 6.8.2 using the Astra theme, with Google Fonts and some Elementor styling. The site is mobile optimized and has moderate performance. HTTPS is enabled with good SSL configuration, but lacks advanced security headers and privacy compliance features such as cookie or privacy policies. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal user tracking. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but missing security headers and no visible vulnerability disclosure or incident response information. The absence of WHOIS data due to query limits restricts full domain trust assessment, but the website content and business information appear legitimate and professional. Overall, the website is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced privacy compliance, explicit contact information, and improved security headers to strengthen trust 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

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

    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"

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 company operates as a service provider in the AV technology sector, focusing on consultation, design, and installation of AV systems. Its competitive advantage lies in offering comprehensive AV solutions including 3D visualization and acoustic measurements, collaborating closely with architects and integrators. Revenue streams likely come from consulting fees, design projects, equipment installation, and maintenance contracts. The target customers are businesses and organizations requiring professional AV setups. The website indicates a small company size with no parent or subsidiary companies mentioned. The lack of social media presence or certifications suggests a localized and specialized operation. Growth indicators are not explicit but the professional presentation suggests a stable niche player.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is properly implemented, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No evidence of vulnerability disclosure policies or incident response contacts limits transparency and readiness. Privacy compliance is weak with no visible privacy or cookie policies, which may pose regulatory risks under GDPR. No analytics or tracking scripts reduce privacy concerns but also limit user behavior insights. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small business website but requires improvements to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to enhance GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve security posture.
  3. Publish clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers for better business credibility and incident response.
  4. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and security culture.
  5. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities and maintain platform security.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern CMS platform (WordPress 6.8.2) with the Astra theme, which is widely supported and regularly updated. The use of Google Fonts and Elementor styling indicates a contemporary design approach. The site is mobile responsive and has moderate performance, though no explicit performance optimization tools or CDN usage were detected. The absence of analytics and tracking scripts suggests minimal data collection. The technical stack is standard for small business websites but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and SEO optimizations. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the HTML content.
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.
