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

Kurzemes Radio is a regional Latvian radio broadcaster with a significant weekly audience, offering music, news, and entertainment programming. The company operates a professionally designed website built on WordPress, featuring modern web technologies such as Gravity Forms, Google reCAPTCHA, and SEO optimizations. The site provides clear contact information, social media integration, and a privacy policy indicating GDPR awareness. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and spam protection on forms, but lacks some HTTP security headers and cookie consent mechanisms. WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, limiting domain trust verification. Overall, the website presents a credible and professional media business with room for security and privacy enhancements.

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.

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

Kurzemes Radio targets Latvian listeners primarily in the Kurzeme region, positioning itself as a key regional media outlet with a medium-sized operation founded in 2018. The business model centers on radio broadcasting and advertising services, supported by online streaming and program archives. The company maintains active social media channels and uses Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The website content and branding are consistent and professional, supporting a trustworthy market presence. No parent or subsidiary companies are identified, indicating an independent operation focused on regional media.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and Google reCAPTCHA v3 for form protection, demonstrating baseline security practices. However, the absence of explicit HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security posture. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, and no security certifications are visible. The site lacks a cookie consent mechanism, which is a GDPR compliance gap. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Security score is moderate with recommendations to implement security headers, cookie consent, and a security.txt file to improve transparency and resilience.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner to comply with GDPR and enhance user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve security posture.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet modern standards and improve user experience.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with a modern tech stack including Gravity Forms for data collection, Yoast SEO for search optimization, and Google reCAPTCHA for spam prevention. It uses jQuery, Slick Slider, and AOS for interactive and animated UI elements. Google Tag Manager is integrated for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile optimized with good navigation clarity and performance rated as moderate. No hosting provider details were found in the HTML content. The site uses canonical URLs and structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced security headers and privacy 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.
