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

The website dienvidkurzeme.travel serves as a regional tourism and leisure portal for South Kurzeme, Latvia, promoting local culture, events, accommodations, and attractions. It targets tourists and visitors interested in exploring this Baltic region, positioning itself as a top tourism destination in Latvia. The site offers event calendars, local guides, and information about artisans and producers, supporting the local hospitality sector. Technically, the site is built on the Mozello CMS platform, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Fancybox, and is delivered via Amazon Cloudfront CDN for performance. The site is mobile-optimized with good SEO practices, though accessibility features are basic. Security-wise, HTTPS is enforced, and cookie consent mechanisms are implemented, but security headers are missing, and no explicit vulnerability disclosure or incident response contacts are provided. The security posture is moderate with no visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data, but improvements are recommended in security headers and incident response transparency. WHOIS data is unavailable due to privacy protection or query failure, but the domain and website content appear legitimate and consistent with a regional tourism business. Overall, the website is professional, content-rich, and trustworthy for its purpose, with moderate technical and security maturity. Strategic improvements in security headers, contact transparency, and accessibility would enhance its posture and user trust.

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. 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

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

Dienvidkurzeme.travel operates as a niche tourism promotion portal focused on the South Kurzeme region of Latvia. Its competitive advantage lies in localized content, event promotion, and support for local producers and artisans, appealing to cultural and nature tourism segments. The business model is informational and promotional, likely funded by regional tourism boards or local partnerships. The site’s social media integration and event calendar indicate active engagement with the target audience. Growth potential exists through enhanced digital marketing and expanded service offerings such as bookings or e-commerce. Partnerships with local businesses and tourism operators are implied but not explicitly detailed. The lack of direct contact information on the homepage suggests a focus on information dissemination rather than direct sales. The site’s consistent branding and content quality support a positive market presence within Latvia’s tourism sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is properly implemented, ensuring encrypted communications. Cookie consent is actively managed, indicating awareness of privacy regulations such as GDPR. However, the absence of key security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces protection against common web attacks such as clickjacking and MIME sniffing. No vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file is present, limiting transparency and readiness for incident reporting. The login and registration forms are basic and do not show advanced security controls such as multi-factor authentication or CAPTCHA. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Recommendations include adding security headers, publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy, and providing clear security contact channels to improve incident response readiness and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement standard security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting and improve security transparency.
  3. Provide clear contact information for security incidents or data protection officer to improve incident response and compliance.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users and comply with accessibility standards.
  5. Consider expanding contact information and business transparency to strengthen trust and credibility with users.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Mozello CMS platform, utilizing a modern JavaScript stack including jQuery 2.2.4, Fancybox 3, Bannerplay, and ResponsiveVideos for interactive and multimedia content. The site assets are served via Amazon Cloudfront CDN, supporting good performance and scalability. Meta tags and SEO elements are properly configured, contributing to good search engine visibility. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design and viewport settings. However, accessibility features are basic and could be improved. No major technical debt or deprecated technologies were detected, though jQuery 2.2.4 is an older version and could be updated for security and performance. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business goals effectively with room for modernization and security enhancements.
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.
