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

Custom Design Solutions (CUDS SIA) is a small Latvian company specializing in custom design services, targeting businesses or individuals seeking tailored design solutions. The website presents basic but clear business contact information including CEO name, phone number, email, physical address, VAT registration, and bank details, supporting its legitimacy. The site is built using the Astro framework and features a simple, professional design with minimal content focused on business contact and company identity. Technical infrastructure appears basic with no detected CMS or advanced hosting details. Security posture is limited, with no visible security headers or privacy policies, and WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, reducing confidence in domain registration transparency. Overall, the website is functional but lacks advanced security and compliance features.

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

    • 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. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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 operates as a small service provider in the custom design sector within Latvia. Its business model is straightforward, focusing on direct client engagement through contact details rather than online sales or marketing. The absence of social media or external partnerships on the website suggests a localized or niche market approach. The presence of VAT and bank details indicates formal business operations. Growth indicators or parent/subsidiary relationships are not evident. The company’s competitive advantage likely lies in personalized service rather than digital presence or scale.

Security posture

The security maturity level is low to moderate. The website lacks privacy and cookie policies, security headers, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. No HTTPS confirmation was available from the data, which is a critical security gap if true. No analytics or tracking scripts reduce privacy concerns but also limit insights into user behavior. Incident response and data protection officer information are absent, indicating limited formal security governance. The business should prioritize implementing HTTPS, security headers, and compliance documentation to improve security posture and regulatory adherence.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS across the entire website to ensure secure communications.
  2. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and enhance user trust.
  3. Deploy standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Create a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  5. Enhance mobile optimization and accessibility to improve user experience and SEO.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses the Astro framework, indicating a modern frontend technology choice. The site structure is simple with minimal content and no detected CMS or backend technologies. Performance is likely moderate given the minimal content and static assets. No analytics or tracking technologies were detected, which limits data-driven improvements but enhances privacy. The absence of security headers and unclear SSL status represent technical risks. Opportunities exist to modernize security configurations, improve SEO metadata, and enhance accessibility features.
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.
