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

Fotosalons.lv is a professional photography service operated by Fotogrāfs Modris Skujiņš, targeting clients in Latvia including Riga, Ogre, Salaspils, Ikšķile, and surrounding areas. The business specializes in wedding, family, and children photography, offering studio and on-location sessions. The website is built on the Squarespace platform, providing a visually appealing and mobile-optimized user experience with clear navigation and professional branding. Contact details including phone, email, and physical address are prominently displayed, enhancing business credibility. Technically, the site leverages Squarespace's hosting and CDN infrastructure, uses Typekit fonts, and enforces HTTPS with HSTS, reflecting a solid security baseline. However, the absence of explicit privacy, cookie, and terms of service policies indicates gaps in compliance with data protection regulations such as GDPR. No forms or analytics scripts were detected, suggesting minimal data collection and tracking. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS and HSTS enabled, but the lack of additional security headers and incident response information limits the overall security maturity. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, which reduces transparency but is likely privacy protection common for small businesses. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professional but would benefit from enhanced compliance documentation and security 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

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

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. 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 business operates as a small, local photography service provider in Latvia, focusing on personal and family events such as weddings and children’s sessions. Its market positioning is that of a professional photographer with a regional footprint. The business model is service-based, relying on direct client engagements rather than e-commerce. Revenue streams likely come from photography session fees and studio rentals. The website supports brand presence and client acquisition but lacks advanced marketing or analytics tools. The partnership ecosystem is minimal, with no evident subsidiaries or related domains. Growth indicators are not explicit but the professional presentation suggests an established local presence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS with HSTS is properly configured, ensuring encrypted communications and protection against protocol downgrade attacks. However, the absence of additional security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options leaves some attack surfaces unmitigated. No vulnerability disclosures, incident response contacts, or security policies are published, indicating limited formal security governance. The lack of forms reduces risk exposure from input-based attacks. Compliance with GDPR and other privacy regulations is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small business website but could be improved with standard best practices and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance and user trust.
  2. Add standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security contact information to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Consider integrating minimal analytics with privacy-respecting configurations to gain insights into user behavior while maintaining compliance.
  5. Regularly review and update WHOIS information and consider transparency options to improve domain trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Squarespace platform, utilizing its CDN and hosting services, which provides a stable and performant infrastructure. The use of Typekit fonts and compressed JavaScript and CSS assets indicates modern front-end practices. The site is mobile optimized and uses responsive design. Performance is moderate, typical for CMS-based sites with rich media content. Accessibility features are basic, with room for improvement in ARIA roles and keyboard navigation. SEO optimization is good with proper meta tags, Open Graph, and structured data (JSON-LD) implemented. No custom backend or complex integrations were detected, reducing technical debt but limiting extensibility.
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.
