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

CreateIT is a Latvian-based full-service digital agency specializing in web development, graphic design, SEO, and digital marketing services. The company targets businesses seeking to enhance their online presence through interactive and client-focused digital solutions. Founded in 2015, CreateIT positions itself as a creative agency bridging brands with their target audiences, emphasizing measurable marketing outcomes and client satisfaction. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with a clear service offering and client testimonials that reinforce trust. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Avia Framework and integrates modern marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Hotjar. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO practices and a cookie consent mechanism indicating GDPR compliance. However, some security best practices like security headers are missing, and no explicit security or incident response policies are published. The security posture is moderate with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, but the absence of security headers and incident response contacts suggests room for improvement. The lack of WHOIS data due to query limits restricts full domain legitimacy verification, though the website content and structure indicate a legitimate business. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and well-maintained with minor technical and security enhancements recommended. Strategically, CreateIT should focus on enhancing security policies, publishing incident response contacts, and improving technical security headers to strengthen trust and compliance. Maintaining up-to-date WHOIS information and transparency will further enhance business credibility.

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

7 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

  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 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

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

CreateIT operates in the competitive digital agency market in Latvia, offering a comprehensive suite of services including web development, graphic design, SEO, and digital marketing. Their business model is service-oriented, targeting SMEs and enterprises seeking digital transformation and marketing effectiveness. The company leverages client testimonials and a portfolio to demonstrate capability and build trust. Their market positioning emphasizes creativity, measurable results, and client engagement. The presence of social media channels and integration of analytics tools indicates a data-driven approach to marketing and client acquisition. Growth indicators include a diverse client base and a range of digital services. Partnerships appear limited to client projects rather than formal alliances. The company’s operations are focused on Latvia but technologically capable of serving global clients.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communication. Cookie consent is implemented, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, limiting transparency and preparedness visibility. The use of up-to-date WordPress and plugins is implied but not confirmed, which is critical for vulnerability management. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be improved by implementing security headers, publishing security policies, and establishing incident response channels.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and compliance with standards.
  5. Maintain and publish accurate WHOIS and business registration information to strengthen domain trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using the Avia Framework theme. It integrates multiple JavaScript libraries including jQuery and various Avia shortcodes for UI components. Marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Hotjar are embedded for user behavior tracking and campaign management. The site uses Google Fonts and Google Maps API for enhanced UI and location services. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization evident. SEO is supported by the Yoast SEO plugin with proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format. However, security headers are missing, and no advanced caching or CDN usage was detected in the HTML content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern and functional but could benefit from enhanced security and performance optimizations.
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.
