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

Aleksandrs Gadzāns Photography is a professional wedding photography service based in Riga, Latvia, offering services locally and for destination weddings worldwide. The website showcases a portfolio of wedding and travel photography, targeting couples seeking high-quality photographic documentation of their special events. The business operates as a small service provider with a focused niche in wedding photography. Technically, the website is built on the vigbo CMS platform, uses modern web technologies including jQuery, Google Fonts, and integrates analytics tools such as Yandex Metrika and Google Analytics. The site is served over HTTPS, ensuring secure communication, but lacks some security headers and formal privacy and cookie policies, which are important for compliance and trust. No contact emails or phone numbers are explicitly provided in the HTML content, though social media presence on Facebook and Instagram is active. Overall, the website is professional and functional but could improve in privacy compliance 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

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. 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

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 positions itself as a specialized wedding photographer with a focus on Riga and destination weddings, leveraging social media channels for marketing and client engagement. The business model is service-based, relying on direct client bookings for photography sessions. The website content and structure indicate a well-maintained portfolio aimed at attracting engaged couples. The lack of detailed business registration or contact information on the website limits transparency but is somewhat mitigated by active social media profiles. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries. The site uses a proprietary CMS platform, indicating a custom or semi-custom digital infrastructure.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, which is a fundamental security measure. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces the overall security posture. No forms or input fields were detected on the homepage, minimizing attack surface from input-based vulnerabilities. Analytics scripts are present but no evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries was found. The lack of privacy and cookie policies is a compliance gap, especially under GDPR regulations applicable in Latvia. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not present, which could hinder timely handling of security issues. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved with standard security headers and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and improve user trust.
  3. Add clear contact information including company email and phone number to facilitate communication and support.
  4. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure policy and hosting a security.txt file to improve security transparency and incident response readiness.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and ensure mobile optimization to improve user experience and SEO.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using the vigbo CMS platform with jQuery 3.3.1 and Google Fonts for typography. It integrates Yandex Metrika and Google Analytics for visitor tracking. The site loads multiple images for a slider/gallery feature, indicating a media-rich portfolio presentation. The site is served over HTTPS, indicating a valid SSL certificate. Performance appears moderate with no explicit indicators of slow loading, but the use of multiple large images could impact speed. Mobile optimization is good, with responsive design elements detected. Accessibility is basic, with room for improvement in semantic markup and ARIA attributes. SEO is supported by meta tags including keywords, description, and Open Graph tags, enhancing social media sharing and search engine visibility.
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.
