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

Latvijas Nodokļu konsultantu asociācija is a Latvian professional association established in 2001 that focuses on the self-regulation of tax consultants and promoting uniform application of tax laws. It serves a specialized audience including tax consultants, lawyers, sworn advocates, auditors, and accountants. The association is a member of the European Confederation Fiscale Europeene since 2005, indicating its recognized position in the professional community. The website provides information about the association's purpose, membership, and certification rules but lacks detailed contact or privacy information. Technically, the website is built on WordPress 6.2.6 with standard themes and Google Fonts. It uses HTTPS with a good SSL configuration but lacks advanced security headers and has an unconfigured Google Analytics plugin, indicating room for improvement in technical maturity. The site is mobile-optimized and has a clear navigation structure, providing a good user experience. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS but does not implement additional security headers or policies such as privacy, cookie, or incident response information. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected, but the absence of privacy and cookie policies and contact information reduces compliance and trust levels. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain legitimacy verification. Overall, the website is professional and trustworthy in content and design but requires enhancements in privacy compliance, security best practices, and transparency to improve its risk profile and user trust.

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

9 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

    • 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

  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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3

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

The association operates as a non-profit professional body in the government sector, focusing on tax consultancy regulation and certification in Latvia. Its competitive advantage lies in its long-standing establishment since 2001 and membership in a European federation, which enhances credibility. The business model revolves around member services, professional standards enforcement, and certification processes. The target customers are tax and legal professionals requiring certification and regulatory guidance. The website content and structure support these functions but lack direct contact or transactional features. Growth indicators are not visible on the site, and partnerships appear limited to the European federation. The association maintains a focused niche presence with consistent branding and professional content.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with mandatory HTTPS enabled, ensuring encrypted communications. However, it lacks implementation of critical security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options, which are recommended to mitigate common web attacks. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates potential GDPR compliance gaps. No incident response or security contact information is provided, limiting readiness for security events. The unconfigured Google Analytics plugin suggests incomplete data governance. No known vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but requires improvements in policy transparency, header implementation, and compliance documentation to align with best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance and user transparency.
  2. Add and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against web vulnerabilities.
  3. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security incident reporting.
  4. Configure or remove unused analytics plugins to avoid unnecessary data collection and potential privacy issues.
  5. Consider publishing a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to improve security culture and incident response readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS version 6.2.6 with standard themes and Google Fonts integration, indicating a contemporary technology stack. The site loads with moderate performance and is mobile-optimized, providing a good user experience. However, the absence of advanced SEO meta tags and accessibility features suggests opportunities for technical enhancement. The presence of an unconfigured Google Analytics plugin indicates incomplete analytics setup. No custom frameworks or platforms beyond WordPress were detected. The hosting provider is not identifiable from the HTML content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is stable but could benefit from modernization efforts focused on SEO, accessibility, and analytics configuration.
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.
