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 holds a strong position as a local government-affiliated sports school, serving residents, students, and sports enthusiasts in the Kuldīga region. Its business model centers on public sports education and event management, supported by partnerships with national sports federations and local authorities. The website content and partner ecosystem indicate a stable community presence with moderate digital maturity. Revenue streams likely derive from municipal funding and event sponsorships. Growth potential exists through enhanced digital engagement and expanded sports programs. The partnership network is robust, including multiple sports federations and event organizers, which strengthens its market position and operational reach.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level, with HTTPS enforced and cookie consent implemented, aligning with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of an incident response page or vulnerability disclosure policy limits transparency and preparedness. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the organization's scope but would benefit from enhanced security controls and documented response procedures to mitigate risks and improve trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish an incident response and vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve transparency and facilitate responsible vulnerability reporting.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance SEO and social sharing metadata to improve digital visibility and user engagement.
  5. Consider adding terms of service and explicit security policy pages to strengthen legal and compliance posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on SilverStripe CMS, utilizing jQuery, Bootstrap, Owl Carousel, and PhotoSwipe for UI and multimedia features. Google Analytics is integrated for visitor tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility features, though SEO optimization is basic with limited meta tags and no Open Graph or JSON-LD structured data detected. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed and resource optimization. The technical stack is modern and maintainable but could benefit from enhanced SEO and security configurations to align with best practices and improve overall digital maturity.
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.
