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

Cēsu Bērzaines pamatskola is a Latvian primary and preschool educational institution with a website built on WordPress. The site provides detailed information about school programs, schedules, events, and community activities, targeting students, parents, and educators. The technical infrastructure includes popular WordPress plugins and libraries such as WPBakery Page Builder, Slider Revolution, and Facebook SDK, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is limited by the absence of detected security headers and unknown SSL configuration, while privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the website is functional and content-rich but would benefit from enhanced security and compliance measures.

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

9 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 local educational provider in Latvia, focusing on primary and preschool education. Its business model is public education with community engagement. The website serves as an information portal for students and parents, offering schedules, educational materials, and news. The institution appears to have a consistent brand presence and moderate market position within its local community. There is no evidence of commercial activities or partnerships beyond educational services. Growth indicators include ongoing infrastructure development such as a new kindergarten building.

Security posture

The website currently lacks visible security headers and does not present explicit security or incident response policies. The use of HTTPS is assumed but not confirmed from the data. The presence of Google reCAPTCHA and Facebook SDK suggests some level of protection against spam and bot activity. However, the absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not evident from the website.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Verify and enforce HTTPS with strong SSL/TLS configurations.
  4. Publish security incident response contact information and policies.
  5. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate security vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with common plugins for page building and sliders, indicating a standard CMS-based infrastructure. It uses jQuery and Google Fonts for frontend functionality and styling. Performance is moderate with some optimization for mobile devices. Accessibility features are basic, and SEO optimization is minimal but present. There is no evidence of advanced frameworks or custom backend technologies. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The technical stack is typical for small educational websites but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
