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

3 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

      No HTTPS encryption

      GDPR requires appropriate security measures for personal data

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate for HTTPS

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Critical

      No HTTPS Encryption

      Website does not use HTTPS encryption, making all data transmission vulnerable to interception

      What to do: Implement SSL/TLS certificate and redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS

  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 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

Larive International positions itself as a key player in emerging markets consulting, leveraging local expertise combined with a global mindset. The business model focuses on providing tailored consulting services to businesses seeking growth in diverse markets. The company maintains a medium-sized expert network and emphasizes strategic partnerships and impactful projects. The website content and structured data confirm a consistent brand identity and clear market focus. Social media channels and detailed service descriptions support a credible and transparent business operation.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with strong SSL configuration and implements several security headers including HSTS, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options. The presence of a Content Security Policy is noted, though some minor issues with data URI blocking in lazy load scripts exist. Forms are protected with Google reCAPTCHA v3, reducing spam and abuse risks. Cookie consent is managed via a reputable GDPR plugin, indicating attention to privacy compliance. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the HTML content. The overall security posture is strong, with recommendations to refine CSP and consider publishing a security policy or incident response information.

Recommendations

  1. Enhance Content Security Policy to fully support lazy loading without blocking data URIs.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining frameworks and incident response procedures.
  3. Implement a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve transparency.
  4. Maintain regular updates of WordPress core, plugins, and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider adding more explicit data retention and privacy policy details to reinforce GDPR compliance.

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with Elementor page builder, utilizing modern technologies such as jQuery, Select2, and WP Rocket for performance optimization. SEO is enhanced by Yoast SEO plugin with comprehensive meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. Performance is fast due to caching and lazy loading strategies. The technical implementation reflects a well-maintained and modern infrastructure suitable for a professional consulting firm.
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.
