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

Baltic Advice SIA is a Danish owned private consulting and outsourcing company operating primarily in Latvia and the Baltic region. The company offers advisory, HR, outsourcing, and design-related services targeting businesses seeking to improve performance and competitive positioning. The website reflects a small but professional business with a clear regional focus and a consistent brand presence. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with common plugins such as WPBakery, Contact Form 7, and WPML for multilingual support. Google Analytics and Google reCAPTCHA are implemented, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and reCAPTCHA protecting forms, but lacks advanced security headers and DNSSEC, which are recommended for improved protection. Privacy compliance is weak due to the absence of privacy and cookie policies, which poses a risk under GDPR regulations. Overall, the website is functional, professional, and credible but would benefit from enhanced security and privacy practices.

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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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"

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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

Baltic Advice positions itself as a regional consulting and outsourcing provider with Danish ownership, serving the Baltic countries. Its business model focuses on advisory, HR, and outsourcing services, supplemented by design services. The company targets businesses in the Baltic region looking for performance improvement and competitive advantage. The website content and structure suggest a small-sized enterprise with a stable market presence since 2015. The company maintains a LinkedIn profile, enhancing its professional credibility. The absence of privacy and security policies indicates areas for operational improvement. No partnerships or subsidiaries are explicitly identified, suggesting a focused and independent operation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and Google reCAPTCHA protecting forms. However, the lack of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces its defense-in-depth. No published security policy or incident response contacts limit transparency and preparedness. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is functional but requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to secure DNS queries and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details and implement a cookie consent mechanism.
  4. Develop and publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update plugins and libraries to avoid vulnerabilities and maintain security hygiene.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using popular plugins such as WPBakery Page Builder, Contact Form 7, and WPML for multilingual support. It uses jQuery and Google services including Analytics and reCAPTCHA. The site loads with moderate performance and is mobile optimized with responsive design. SEO optimization is basic with meta tags and canonical links present but no advanced SEO features detected. Accessibility features are minimal but functional. Hosting provider details are not explicit, but the domain registrar is Instra Corporation Pty Ltd. The site uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate. Overall, the technical infrastructure is standard for a small business website but could benefit from performance tuning and enhanced security configurations.
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.
