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

Baltic Development Consultancy is a Latvian-based real estate and construction project consultancy firm offering comprehensive services including pre-project analysis, planning, design, and project management. The company serves a range of clients in the Baltic region, with a focus on efficient project execution and stakeholder collaboration. Their website demonstrates a professional presence with detailed service descriptions and client references. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern plugins and good mobile optimization, though it lacks explicit privacy and cookie policies.

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

8 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 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"

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 targets real estate developers and construction clients in Latvia and the Baltic states, providing essential consulting and project management services. Their portfolio includes notable projects such as IKEA store construction and hospital building maintenance. The business model is service-based consultancy with a focus on quality and client engagement. The presence of multiple client logos and ongoing projects indicates a stable market position. Partnerships with technology providers like Toilitech enhance their service offerings. The website content is well-structured and professionally presented, supporting business credibility.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and common WordPress security practices but lacks visible security headers and published security policies. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The absence of privacy and cookie policies is a compliance gap, especially under GDPR. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not evident. The contact form uses standard validation but no visible CAPTCHA or anti-CSRF tokens. Overall, security maturity is moderate but could be enhanced with formal policies and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options to enhance site security.
  3. Incorporate CAPTCHA or other anti-bot measures on contact forms to prevent spam and abuse.
  4. Establish and publish an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy to build trust and readiness.
  5. Regularly monitor and update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities and maintain security posture.

The website is built on WordPress 6.7.2 with jQuery and Forminator plugin for forms, indicating a modern CMS platform. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and accessibility features like skip links. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected in the HTML content.

The technical stack is standard for small to medium business websites, with opportunities to improve security and privacy implementations.
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.
