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

IMEDIA is a Latvian digital marketing agency specializing in SEO and website development services aimed at helping businesses improve their Google rankings and attract new clients. The company offers a range of services including SEO audits, keyword analysis, local SEO, and content creation. The website is professionally designed using WordPress with modern plugins such as Yoast SEO and Contact Form 7, indicating a solid technical foundation. The site is mobile-optimized and provides clear navigation and relevant content for its target audience of businesses seeking digital marketing solutions. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and some bot mitigation measures, but lacks advanced security headers and cookie consent mechanisms. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, but the website content and structure suggest a legitimate small business. Overall, the site presents a trustworthy and professional image with room for improvement 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

10 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

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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

IMEDIA operates in the digital marketing sector in Latvia, targeting small to medium-sized businesses that require SEO and online visibility services. Their business model is service-based, focusing on delivering measurable SEO results and website development. The company maintains a blog to educate and engage potential clients, enhancing their market position as knowledgeable experts. The absence of detailed company registration data limits deeper business intelligence, but the consistent branding and professional content indicate a stable operation. The agency leverages partnerships with platforms like Google and Facebook for marketing but does not display explicit affiliate or partner domains. Growth potential exists through expanding service offerings and enhancing compliance and security transparency.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and uses plugins like StopBadBots to reduce malicious traffic, reflecting a baseline security awareness. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security posture. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which could hinder trust and compliance with regulations like GDPR. The site lacks a cookie consent mechanism, which is a compliance gap. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. To improve, the company should implement comprehensive security headers, publish security and incident response policies, and ensure cookie consent compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
  3. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and conduct periodic security audits to maintain a strong security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using the GeneratePress theme and several popular plugins such as Yoast SEO for search engine optimization and Contact Form 7 for form management. It uses jQuery and Google Fonts for frontend functionality and styling. The site loads moderately fast and is mobile-optimized with responsive design. The presence of structured data (JSON-LD) improves SEO and content discoverability. However, the hosting provider is not explicitly identified, and no advanced performance optimization techniques like CDN usage or caching headers were detected in the provided data. The technical stack is modern and suitable for a small digital marketing agency but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and privacy compliance features.
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.
