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

The LiveRiga website serves as the official digital platform for the Riga Investment and Tourism Agency, promoting Riga as a vibrant capital city of Latvia with opportunities for tourism, investment, events, and work relocation. The site is well-structured, visually appealing, and targets a broad audience including tourists, investors, event organizers, and professionals considering relocation. The technical infrastructure leverages modern web technologies such as jQuery, Bootstrap, and Google reCAPTCHA, ensuring a responsive and interactive user experience. Security measures include HTTPS enforcement and cookie consent mechanisms, though some security headers and policies are not explicitly published. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises concerns about domain registration legitimacy, which should be verified to ensure trustworthiness. Overall, the website demonstrates a strong digital presence with good privacy compliance and user engagement through social media and newsletter subscriptions.

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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

  2. 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 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';…

  3. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

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

LiveRiga positions itself as a key governmental agency facilitating tourism and business growth in Riga. Its market positioning is strong within the regional government and tourism sectors, leveraging partnerships with event organizers and the city municipality. The business model focuses on promoting Riga's economic and cultural assets to attract visitors, investors, and skilled workers. The website's content and linked domains indicate a well-established partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators include active social media channels and a newsletter subscription service. Revenue streams are likely government-funded with potential indirect benefits from increased tourism and investment.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and integration of Google reCAPTCHA to protect form submissions. Cookie consent is managed with user choice and compliance with GDPR principles. However, the lack of published security policies, incident response contacts, and security.txt files indicates gaps in transparency and readiness for security incidents. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. Recommendations include implementing security headers and publishing clear security and incident response policies to enhance trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  3. Create and maintain a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Verify and update WHOIS domain registration information to ensure domain legitimacy and transparency.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance with WCAG standards and broaden user inclusivity.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of established JavaScript libraries and frameworks including jQuery, Bootstrap, Owl Carousel, LightGallery, and Swiper for UI components and interactivity. Google reCAPTCHA v3 is integrated for spam protection on forms. The site is mobile responsive with multiple CSS stylesheets targeting different screen sizes. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of scripts and styles. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary solution. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and accessibility could be addressed to modernize the infrastructure further.
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.
