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

Ikšķiles Brīvā skola is a small educational institution based in Latvia, providing primary and secondary education with a focus on community values, nature, and Latvian culture. The website serves as an information portal for parents, students, and the local community, offering details about educational programs, school projects, events, and contact information. The school positions itself as a community-centric alternative education provider with a clear local focus. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Apostrophe theme, leveraging common web technologies such as jQuery, Jetpack, and Google Fonts. The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile devices, with good SEO practices and basic accessibility features. However, some external scripts from less known domains raise minor concerns. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS but lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and HSTS, which could improve its security posture. No privacy or cookie policies were explicitly found, indicating potential compliance gaps with GDPR or other privacy regulations. The absence of WHOIS data due to query limits restricts the ability to fully verify domain legitimacy and age, slightly reducing trustworthiness. Overall, the website is functional, informative, and professionally presented but would benefit from enhanced security measures, privacy compliance improvements, and WHOIS transparency to strengthen trust and compliance.

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 school operates as a non-profit educational entity focused on serving the local community in Ikšķile, Latvia. Its business model centers on providing education with an emphasis on freedom, nature, community, and Latvian identity. The website content and social media presence indicate active engagement with parents and students. The institution's market position is local and niche, with no indication of commercial revenue streams. Partnerships or subsidiaries are not evident. Growth indicators include ongoing projects and community initiatives. The school leverages digital tools for communication but lacks advanced business intelligence or e-commerce capabilities.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is moderate. HTTPS is properly implemented, ensuring encrypted communication. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS reduces protection against common web attacks. No visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of privacy and cookie policies suggests compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not present on the site. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small educational website but requires improvements to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance and inform users about data handling.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and HSTS to enhance site security.
  3. Conduct a security audit of all third-party scripts, especially those from less known domains like bujerdaz.com, to mitigate risks.
  4. Publish incident response and vulnerability disclosure information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Obtain and publish WHOIS data or use a registrar that provides transparent domain registration information to improve trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using the Apostrophe theme, with common web technologies such as jQuery and Jetpack plugins. It uses Google Fonts and Facebook SDK for social media integration. Performance is moderate with some optimization for mobile devices. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and Open Graph tags. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The site lacks advanced security headers and does not implement cookie consent mechanisms. The presence of external scripts from unknown domains suggests a need for review. Overall, the technical infrastructure is standard for a small educational website but has room for modernization and security enhancements.
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.
