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

Infomācijas Tehnoloģiju Tālmācības Vidusskola (ITTV) is a Latvian distance learning secondary school specializing in information technology education for ambitious youth. The website presents a professional and modern platform offering practical IT skills training, career development opportunities, and participation in global technology events. The school is a member of the International Community of Online Schools (ICONS), indicating its commitment to educational excellence and international collaboration. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with Elementor and WooCommerce, integrating modern analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel. Security posture is good with HTTPS enabled and consent mechanisms in place, though explicit privacy and terms policies are missing. WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, limiting domain legitimacy verification. Overall, the site is trustworthy and well-positioned in the education sector but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security documentation.

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

7 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

    • 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

  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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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

ITTV operates in the education and technology sectors, targeting young students interested in IT careers. Its business model focuses on online secondary education with a strong emphasis on practical skills and career readiness. The school leverages partnerships through ICONS and maintains a large youth technology community in the Baltics. Revenue likely comes from tuition fees, with some budget places available. The website's content and testimonials highlight successful alumni working in international IT companies, reinforcing its market position. The use of WooCommerce suggests some e-commerce capabilities, possibly for course enrollment or materials. The platform's technical maturity is moderate, with room for improvement in privacy compliance and security policies.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security baseline with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented via Cookiebot. However, security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options are not explicitly detected, which could improve protection against common web attacks. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were found in the HTML content. The contact form includes a mandatory acceptance checkbox for data processing consent, supporting GDPR compliance. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which is a gap in security readiness. Overall, the security posture is adequate for an educational website but could be enhanced with additional headers and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service pages accessible from the main navigation or footer.
  2. Implement and verify security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add explicit incident response and vulnerability disclosure information to improve transparency and trust.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet recognized standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform using Elementor for page building and WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality. It integrates modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Swiper.js for UI components and uses Google Tag Manager to manage analytics and marketing tags. The site loads multiple external resources including fonts from Google Fonts and scripts from YouTube and Facebook. Performance is moderate with lazy loading for images and a responsive design optimized for mobile devices. SEO is supported by the Yoast SEO plugin with proper meta tags and structured data in JSON-LD format. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained but could benefit from enhanced security headers and privacy documentation.
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.
