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

HortusDigital is a Latvian technology company specializing in providing ready and replicable business management and IT infrastructure solutions aimed at facilitating digital transformation for businesses. The company positions itself as a niche provider offering professional support and consulting services to help clients modernize their operations with digital tools. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with a focus on technology and digital services. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using Elementor and integrates modern SEO and consent management tools such as Yoast SEO and Cookiebot. The infrastructure includes Azure DNS and domain registration via GoDaddy, with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent mechanisms in place. Security posture is moderate with good SSL configuration and consent management but lacks advanced security headers and published security policies. Privacy compliance is partially met with cookie consent but no visible privacy policy or terms of service. Business credibility is supported by consistent branding and social media presence but lacks explicit contact details on the homepage. Overall, the website is functional, professional, and moderately secure but would benefit from enhanced privacy 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

3 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

      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

HortusDigital operates in the technology sector, targeting businesses seeking digital transformation and IT infrastructure solutions. Their business model centers on delivering ready-made, replicable solutions and professional consulting, positioning them as a specialized service provider in Latvia. The company was founded in 2016, consistent with the domain registration date. Their market positioning leverages digital transformation trends, focusing on sectors requiring business management and IT infrastructure modernization. The company maintains an active social media presence on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, enhancing their market visibility. Revenue streams likely derive from service contracts, consulting, and solution deployments. The website content and structure indicate a focus on small to medium-sized enterprises. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified. The company demonstrates good branding consistency and content quality, supporting a moderate level of trust among visitors.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses Cookiebot for consent management, indicating awareness of privacy and security best practices. The default consent settings deny ad and analytics storage, enhancing user privacy. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options represents potential security gaps. No explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are published, which could hinder incident management and transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The security score is moderate, reflecting a solid baseline with room for improvement in advanced security controls and documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to protect against DNS spoofing and improve overall DNS security.
  2. Publish comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service documents accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  3. Implement and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance browser security.
  4. Add explicit security and incident response policies including contact channels like security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities and ensure compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using Elementor for page building and Yoast SEO for search engine optimization. Cookiebot is integrated for GDPR-compliant cookie consent management using the IAB TCF v2.2 framework. The domain is registered with GoDaddy and uses Azure DNS servers, indicating a reliable hosting and DNS infrastructure. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization evident. Accessibility features are basic but present. SEO is well implemented with proper meta tags, Open Graph tags, and structured JSON-LD data. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, though improvements in security headers and DNS security could enhance the technical posture.
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.
