Risk levelHigh

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

Kalbakas is a small hospitality business operating a countryside house near Smiltene, Latvia, offering accommodation, event hosting such as weddings, seminars, and banquets, and traditional sauna experiences. The website is built on WordPress using the Sydney theme and provides basic but clear information about the business, including contact details and multimedia content. The technical infrastructure is standard for a small business website, with no advanced analytics or tracking detected. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS enabled but lacks security headers and formal privacy or cookie policies. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, slightly impacting trust assessment. Overall, the site is functional and trustworthy for its business purpose but would benefit from improved compliance 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

11 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

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. 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

Kalbakas targets local and regional customers seeking rural accommodation and event venues. Its business model focuses on hospitality services including weddings, seminars, and leisure stays. The company leverages its historic building and natural surroundings as unique selling points. The website supports the business by providing essential information and contact channels but lacks advanced marketing or analytics tools. The absence of privacy and cookie policies may limit trust for privacy-conscious visitors. The business appears small and locally focused with no evident parent or subsidiary companies. The presence of video and photo galleries supports customer engagement.

Security posture

The website uses HTTPS, which is a fundamental security measure. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options, which could mitigate common web attacks. No security.txt or incident response contacts are provided, limiting transparency for vulnerability reporting. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected. The site does not implement cookie consent mechanisms or privacy policies, which are important for GDPR compliance. Overall, the security posture is basic and could be improved to reduce risk and enhance user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to harden the website.
  3. Establish a security.txt file and provide incident response contact information to facilitate vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to latest versions to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding analytics with privacy-respecting configurations and cookie consent mechanisms to improve marketing insights and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 5.1.19 with the Sydney theme and uses common libraries such as jQuery 1.12.4, Underscore.js, and MediaElement.js for video playback. It loads Google Fonts and YouTube embeds securely over HTTPS. The site is moderately optimized for mobile devices and has basic accessibility features. Performance is moderate with no advanced optimization techniques detected. SEO is basic with meta tags present but no structured data or Open Graph tags found. The site lacks modern JavaScript frameworks or progressive web app features. Overall, the technical implementation is adequate for a small business but could benefit from modernization and enhanced SEO and accessibility.
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.
