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

Biocon laboratorija is a Latvian medical laboratory specializing in diagnostic testing services including allergy panels, food intolerance tests, molecular diagnostics, and immunology. The company also acts as a distributor for international medical technology manufacturers, serving Latvian laboratories. The website is professionally designed using modern web technologies such as Bootstrap and jQuery, providing clear navigation and relevant content targeted at patients and healthcare professionals in Latvia. Contact information is clearly presented, enhancing business credibility. However, the absence of privacy and cookie policies, lack of security headers, and unavailable WHOIS data reduce the overall trust and security posture. No evidence of tracking or analytics scripts was found, indicating minimal user tracking.

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

11 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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  3. 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"

    • 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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Biocon operates in the healthcare sector as a small-sized medical laboratory and medical technology distributor in Latvia. Its business model focuses on providing diagnostic testing services and partnering with international medical technology companies. The website highlights partnerships with reputable companies such as Diesse Diagnostica Senese and MediWiss Analytic GmbH, indicating a solid partnership ecosystem. The target customers are patients requiring medical tests and healthcare providers. The company appears to maintain a moderate market position locally with potential for growth through its technology distribution activities.

Security posture

The website currently lacks key security features such as HTTPS enforcement confirmation, security headers, and documented security policies. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates potential GDPR compliance gaps. No forms or user input fields were detected, reducing attack surface but also limiting user engagement. Overall, the security posture is basic and would benefit from improvements in SSL configuration, security headers, and privacy compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and enforce secure connections site-wide.
  2. Add standard security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  4. Introduce a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility and SEO metadata to improve user experience and search engine visibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a stable and widely adopted technology stack including Bootstrap 4, jQuery, Popper.js, and FontAwesome for UI and icons. The site is mobile responsive and has good navigation clarity. However, no CMS or hosting provider information is evident. Performance is moderate with no explicit optimization indicators. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal data collection. The site lacks advanced SEO metadata and accessibility features, which could be improved to enhance reach and compliance.
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.
