Boatcruises.lv is a small local business based in Latvia offering panoramic boat cruises on the Riga canal and Daugava river, along with boat rentals for various events such as birthdays, business meetings, and photoshoots. The website provides online ticket purchasing with discounts and supports multiple languages for audio guides, targeting tourists and local visitors interested in sightseeing and leisure activities on the water. The business operates primarily in the transportation and hospitality sectors within the Latvian market. Technically, the website is built on the Tilda CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries and Google services for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile optimized and features good SEO practices, though accessibility is basic. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled and cookie consent implemented, but lacks visible security headers and formal privacy or terms policies. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain registration verification. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and safe for general audiences, but would benefit from enhanced security and compliance documentation.

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"

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 positions itself as a niche provider of boat cruises and event rentals in Riga, leveraging online ticket sales and digital marketing tools to attract customers. Its competitive advantage lies in offering flexible routes, multiple daily departures, and multilingual audio guides. The business model combines direct consumer sales with event-based rentals, targeting tourists and local event organizers. The presence of social media and integrated booking widgets indicates a focus on digital engagement. Growth potential exists through expanding language offerings and enhancing online presence. Partnerships with local event venues and tourism operators could further strengthen market position. The company appears to maintain a lean operational size with a focus on quality customer experience.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and a cookie consent mechanism in place, indicating awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries was found. The lack of a published privacy policy and terms of service represents a compliance gap, particularly under GDPR. Incident response readiness and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not evident. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small business but requires improvements to meet best practices and regulatory expectations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service to enhance legal compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement essential security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Add a security.txt file and establish a vulnerability disclosure process to improve incident response readiness.
  4. Ensure all forms include anti-CSRF tokens and validate inputs to prevent injection attacks.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party scripts and libraries to avoid vulnerabilities and maintain performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Tilda CMS platform, leveraging JavaScript libraries including Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and BokunWidgets for booking functionality. The hosting and CDN services appear to be provided by Tilda's infrastructure. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata and Open Graph tags for social sharing. Performance is moderate, with asynchronous loading of scripts and prefetching of DNS for external resources. Accessibility features are basic, with room for improvement in semantic markup and ARIA attributes. No critical technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected, but security enhancements are recommended to strengthen the overall technical posture.
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.
