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

Dandelion Apartments & Suits SIA operates a professionally designed website offering short-term rental apartments in Riga, Latvia. The company is a small family-operated business focusing on hospitality services, managing 43 apartments across 11 locations. The website integrates booking functionality via a third-party service (Smoobu) and maintains a presence on social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram. The business targets travelers and tourists seeking convenient accommodation options in Riga. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Divi theme, with SEO optimization via Yoast and security features including HTTPS and Google reCAPTCHA. However, the absence of a published privacy policy and security headers indicates room for improvement in compliance and security posture. Overall, the site presents a moderate risk profile with a solid foundation but requires enhancements in privacy transparency and security best practices.

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

6 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  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

  • 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 positions itself as a niche player in the Riga short-term rental market, leveraging family-operated trust and multiple apartment locations. Its business model centers on managing and renting apartments to tourists, with revenue likely generated through bookings and rental fees. The integration of a third-party booking platform suggests reliance on external services for operational efficiency. Social media links indicate active engagement channels, though direct contact information is not prominently displayed. The website content and structure reflect a focus on user experience and conversion, targeting international visitors with multilingual support. Growth potential exists through expanding apartment offerings and enhancing digital presence. The lack of detailed corporate information and certifications limits visibility into broader business operations.

Security posture

The website benefits from HTTPS encryption and employs Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms, which are positive security measures. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are published, which may hinder timely security communication. Cookie consent is implemented, supporting GDPR compliance, but the lack of a formal privacy policy and data protection officer contact reduces transparency. No suspicious scripts or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by adopting recommended headers, publishing security policies, and enhancing incident response readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy detailing data processing and GDPR compliance.
  2. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Create and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and incident response.
  4. Add clear contact information including company phone numbers and emails for customer and security inquiries.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using the Divi theme, which provides a flexible and visually appealing design. SEO is enhanced through the Yoast plugin, and Google reCAPTCHA is integrated for form security. Booking functionality is embedded via an iframe from Smoobu, indicating reliance on external booking management. The site loads multiple external resources including Google Fonts and CDN-hosted JavaScript libraries, which may impact performance but are industry standard. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design elements evident. Accessibility features are basic but present. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in caching and resource optimization. The technical stack is standard for small hospitality businesses but would benefit from enhanced security configurations and privacy compliance 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.
