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

Latvijas Kinematogrāfistu Savienība is a Latvian film industry association dedicated to supporting cinematographers and film professionals through news, projects, and collaborations. The website serves as a professional portal for the Latvian film community, providing updates, event information, and member resources. The organization appears to be a small-sized entity focused on media and cultural activities within Latvia. Technically, the website employs modern frontend technologies including Bootstrap, Google Fonts, Google Analytics, and Facebook SDK, ensuring a responsive and user-friendly experience. However, there is room for improvement in accessibility and SEO best practices. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS usage and no visible vulnerabilities, but lacks important security headers and formal policies. Privacy compliance is weak due to absence of privacy and cookie policies and no consent mechanisms. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professional but would benefit from enhanced compliance and security measures.

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

12 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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  4. 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"

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 · found on this site
  • 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 organization occupies a niche position as a national film industry association in Latvia, targeting film professionals and enthusiasts. Its business model is likely non-profit or membership-based, focusing on cultural promotion and industry support rather than commercial revenue. The website content and partnerships indicate active engagement with local cultural institutions such as 'Latvijas skola soma'. The presence of testimonials and project showcases suggests a well-established community presence. Growth potential lies in expanding digital services and improving compliance to meet EU regulations. The partnership ecosystem is modest but relevant to the Latvian cultural sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is implemented, and no sensitive data is exposed in the HTML. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, indicating limited readiness for security incidents. The use of third-party analytics and social SDKs without visible consent mechanisms poses privacy risks under GDPR. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small non-profit but requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Add security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to improve security posture.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and provide security contact information.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve inclusivity and SEO.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern frontend stack with Bootstrap framework, Google Fonts, and JavaScript libraries such as Slick Carousel for UI components. Google Analytics and Facebook SDK are integrated for analytics and social media features. The site is mobile responsive and well-structured with clear navigation. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. No CMS or backend technologies are explicitly identified. Hosting provider details are not available. Technical debt appears low but the lack of security headers and privacy compliance features represent modernization opportunities. Overall, the technical implementation supports the business goals but can be improved for security and compliance.
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.
