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

8 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. 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 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 portal operates within the government sector, focusing on digital transformation of municipal and state services. Its business model revolves around providing centralized access to multiple public services, improving user convenience and administrative efficiency. The company behind the portal, SIA ZZ Dats, is a medium-sized entity with a strong market position in Latvia's e-government ecosystem. The presence of ISO 27001 certification and partnerships with local municipalities and banks underscores its credibility. The portal's integration with various service providers and its multilingual capabilities indicate a strategic approach to inclusivity and broad user engagement. Growth indicators include increasing usage statistics for property tax payments and electronic document delivery. The partnership ecosystem includes local banks and certification authorities, enhancing service reliability and trust.

Security posture

The security posture of epakalpojumi.lv is robust, with HTTPS enforced site-wide and user authorization required for accessing sensitive services. The ISO 27001:2022 certification confirms adherence to international information security management standards. However, the absence of explicit Content-Security-Policy headers and anti-CSRF tokens in forms suggests areas for improvement. No visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. The portal uses secure authentication methods including e-ID cards and internet banking. Incident response contact information is not publicly available, which could be enhanced for transparency. Overall, the security maturity is good but could benefit from modern security header implementations and documented incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement Content-Security-Policy and other modern security headers to mitigate XSS and clickjacking risks.
  2. Add anti-CSRF tokens to all forms to prevent cross-site request forgery attacks.
  3. Introduce a visible cookie consent banner to comply fully with GDPR cookie requirements.
  4. Publish incident response contact details or a security.txt file to improve transparency and trust.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and penetration testing to maintain and improve security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a mature ASP.NET Web Forms platform, utilizing jQuery and jQuery UI for interactive elements. The use of CSS3 media queries and responsive menus indicates attention to mobile optimization. The site loads external fonts from Google Fonts and includes custom scripts for UI and session management. Performance is moderate, with no heavy third-party advertising or tracking scripts detected, which benefits load times and privacy. The technical stack is somewhat dated but stable, with opportunities to modernize by adopting newer frameworks or SPA technologies. Accessibility features are basic, and SEO optimization is present but could be enhanced with richer metadata and structured data. Hosting details are not explicitly identified but likely Windows-based given the technology stack.
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.
