Security score

40/100

Risk levelHigh

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

Baltic Innovation Agency is a small Estonian innovation management company established in 2010, focused on connecting ideas, people, and funding to foster innovation in the Baltic region. Their key services include innovation consulting, analysis, management, and funding support, targeting startups, clusters, smart cities, and green deal initiatives. The website is built on WordPress with modern plugins and SEO tools, showing good digital maturity and mobile optimization. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data, but lacks explicit security headers and formal privacy/cookie policies, indicating room for compliance improvement. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy, with clear contact information and partner affiliations, but should enhance privacy compliance and security transparency to reduce risk.

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"

      • 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"

    • 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 agency positions itself as a regional innovation facilitator with a focus on technology and sustainable development sectors. Their business model revolves around innovation management and connecting stakeholders with funding opportunities. The presence of EU and Enterprise Europe Network partners indicates strong regional integration and credibility. The website content and structure support a professional image aimed at startups, clusters, and smart city projects. Growth potential is supported by partnerships and a clear service portfolio, though explicit business registration details are not disclosed on the site.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS and modern WordPress plugins, which is positive. However, the absence of security headers like Content-Security-Policy and lack of a vulnerability disclosure or incident response contact reduces security maturity. No visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Incident response readiness is not evident. Overall, security posture is moderate but could be improved by implementing best practices and transparency measures.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Add a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure page to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Provide incident response contact information, such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to maintain a strong security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.1 using the Colibri Page Builder Pro and Yoast SEO plugin, indicating a modern CMS environment with SEO optimization. It uses jQuery, Fancybox, Swiper, and Google Analytics for interactivity and analytics. Hosting and domain registration are managed by Zone Media OÜ, a reputable Estonian provider. Performance is moderate with video backgrounds and multiple CSS/JS assets. Mobile optimization is good, but accessibility features are basic. The site lacks advanced security headers and explicit privacy mechanisms, which are technical debt areas to address.
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.
