Risk levelHigh

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

Eiropas Kustība Latvijā is a prominent non-governmental organization in Latvia focused on political advocacy and promoting active Latvian participation in the European Union. The website serves as an information hub for news, projects, and civic engagement activities primarily targeting Latvian citizens, youth, and educators. The organization maintains a consistent brand presence and provides multiple channels for contact and social media engagement. Technically, the website is built on an older WordPress platform with legacy JavaScript libraries, which introduces potential security risks. The site is accessible without any WAF or blocking mechanisms, but lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, which impacts compliance posture. Security headers and modern best practices are not evident, and the site would benefit from updates and enhanced security controls. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy but requires modernization and improved privacy compliance to align with current standards.

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.

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 organization operates as a non-profit NGO with a focus on EU-related civic education and political advocacy in Latvia. It holds a strong market position as a leading voice in this niche, supported by active social media presence and regular content updates. The business model revolves around advocacy, education, and community engagement rather than commercial revenue. The target audience includes Latvian citizens interested in EU affairs, youth, educators, and civil society actors. The website content and structure support these goals effectively, though the lack of privacy and cookie policies may limit trust among privacy-conscious users. Partnerships and related domains are not explicitly identified, but the site links to official EU and social media platforms, reinforcing legitimacy.

Security posture

The security posture is moderate but shows weaknesses due to outdated software components such as WordPress 4.0.38 and jQuery 1.8.3, which are known to have vulnerabilities. No advanced security headers or policies are detected, and there is no evidence of incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. HTTPS is enabled, which is a positive baseline. The site lacks privacy and cookie policies, which is a compliance gap under GDPR. The contact form collects personal data but does not indicate secure handling or consent mechanisms. Overall, the site requires urgent updates to software, implementation of security headers, and formal privacy compliance measures to reduce risk and improve trust.

Recommendations

  1. Upgrade WordPress and all plugins/themes to the latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements and user consent mechanisms.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and incident response contact to improve security transparency and readiness.
  5. Improve website performance and mobile optimization to enhance user experience and accessibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS version 4.0.38, which is outdated and potentially insecure. It uses jQuery 1.8.3 and Cufon for font rendering, both legacy technologies. The site loads CSS and JS assets from its own domain, with no CDN detected. Performance is moderate with basic mobile optimization and accessibility features. SEO is basic with meta tags but no advanced structured data or Open Graph tags found. The site lacks modern JavaScript frameworks or responsive design frameworks. There is no evidence of advanced hosting or security infrastructure such as WAF or CDN protection. Overall, the technical stack is functional but dated, requiring modernization to improve security, performance, and compliance.
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.
