Risk levelMedium

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

Latvian IT Cluster operates as a business gateway facilitating smarter IT export and market entry for Latvian technology companies. Positioned as a key cluster organization in Latvia, it supports the growth and international expansion of local IT firms. The website is built on the Wix platform, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries and polyfills to ensure compatibility and moderate performance. While the site presents professional content and clear contact information, it lacks critical privacy and cookie policies, which impacts compliance and user trust. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS implied and some security hardening scripts present, but absence of security headers and incident response information suggests room for improvement. The domain's WHOIS data is unavailable, raising concerns about registration legitimacy, though the website content appears credible and business-focused.

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

6 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 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Facebook, LinkedIn

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

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 Latvian IT Cluster targets Latvian tech companies aiming to grow and enter new markets, acting as a facilitator and connector. Its business model centers on cluster services, export facilitation, and market access support. The organization holds a small size profile with a focused sector in technology. The website's structured data and metadata reinforce its branding and market positioning. Absence of detailed business registration data and privacy policies suggests a need for enhanced transparency. The cluster likely relies on partnerships and ecosystem collaboration, though no explicit partner domains were identified in the website content.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS usage is implied but not explicitly confirmed in the data. Security best practices include scripts to harden fetch and XMLHttpRequest calls, and no sensitive data exposure was detected. However, the lack of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are present, limiting readiness for security incidents. Compliance with GDPR and cookie consent mechanisms is absent, representing compliance gaps. Overall, the security posture is adequate for informational purposes but requires enhancements for robust protection and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Add security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Establish and disclose an incident response process with dedicated security contact channels.
  4. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration to ensure transparency and legitimacy.
  5. Improve accessibility features and SEO optimization to enhance user experience and discoverability.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Wix platform using Wix Thunderbolt framework, with polyfills for legacy browser support and performance optimizations. It uses Sentry for error monitoring and includes scripts to harden fetch and XHR requests. Hosting is provided by Wix, with static assets served from Wix's CDN domains. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. SEO is basic with canonical and Open Graph metadata present but no advanced SEO features detected. Accessibility is basic, with room for improvement in ARIA roles and keyboard navigation. No forms or email collection mechanisms were found, indicating limited data collection. Overall, the technical infrastructure is modern but could benefit from enhanced security and 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.
