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

Citadele Group is a prominent financial services provider operating in the Baltic region, offering a wide range of services including banking, capital management, life insurance, pension plans, leasing, and factoring. The website content is professionally presented in Latvian, targeting private individuals and businesses in the Baltics. The company positions itself as a modern financial platform with a strong regional presence and a comprehensive service portfolio. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies such as Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing, uses standard HTML5 and CSS3, and includes cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR. The site is mobile optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. However, no explicit CMS or hosting provider information was detected. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and includes CSRF tokens in forms, indicating basic security hygiene. However, no security headers were detected in the provided data, and there is no published security policy or incident response information. The absence of WHOIS registration data raises concerns about domain legitimacy, although the website content and branding appear consistent and professional. Overall, the website demonstrates a solid business and technical foundation but would benefit from enhanced transparency in domain registration, improved security headers, and clearer contact information 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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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.

Business context

Business profile

Citadele Group operates in the finance sector, serving private and corporate clients across the Baltic states. The business model focuses on providing innovative financial products and services, including banking, asset management, insurance, and leasing. The company leverages a regional presence and a diversified service portfolio to maintain a competitive advantage. Financial reports and press releases indicate active investor relations and transparency. The target customer segments include individuals and businesses seeking modern financial solutions. The company appears to have a large operational scale, though specific founding year and parent company details are not disclosed. The partnership ecosystem is not explicitly detailed on the site, but the use of Google Tag Manager and links to Citadele Latvian domain suggest integrated group operations.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and CSRF protection on forms. The presence of a cookie consent banner and GDPR-compliant privacy policy indicates awareness of data protection regulations. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response contacts are published, which limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. The missing WHOIS data is a notable gap that could impact trustworthiness. Overall, the security posture is adequate but requires improvements in header implementation, incident response transparency, and domain registration clarity.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan on the website, including dedicated contact channels for security issues.
  3. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure transparency and trustworthiness.
  4. Provide explicit company contact information such as official emails and phone numbers to improve user trust and compliance.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct regular security audits to maintain compliance with evolving standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end stack with HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, including Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile responsive and includes cookie consent mechanisms aligned with GDPR requirements. No CMS or backend platform was identified from the HTML content. Performance appears moderate with no evident broken elements. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The absence of security headers and incomplete WHOIS data represent technical risks. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional online presence but would benefit from enhanced security configurations and transparency.
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.
