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

LRT (Lietuvos nacionalinis radijas ir televizija) is the Lithuanian national public broadcaster, providing news, cultural programming, and live media streaming services primarily targeting Lithuanian-speaking audiences. It holds a leading position in the Baltic media landscape as a trusted and modern public service entity. The website offers rich content including news articles, live TV and radio streams, archives, and cultural projects, supporting multiple languages and accessibility features. Technically, the site employs modern JavaScript frameworks, Google Tag Manager, and multiple analytics platforms, ensuring a robust digital presence. Security posture is strong with HTTPS enforcement and standard security headers, though some improvements in CSP and vulnerability disclosure could be made. Privacy and cookie policies are present and GDPR compliant, reflecting good privacy practices. However, the WHOIS data is unavailable due to registry query failure, which slightly impacts domain trust analysis but does not detract from the overall legitimacy of the site based on content and structured data.

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. 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"

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

LRT operates as a public service broadcaster funded and regulated by Lithuanian authorities, focusing on delivering reliable news, cultural content, and educational programming. Its business model centers on public funding and audience engagement through multiple media channels. The website's multilingual support and extensive archives indicate a broad target audience including local and diaspora Lithuanians. Partnerships with regional and international media organizations are implied through linked domains and social media presence. The organization maintains a consistent brand identity and leverages modern digital marketing and analytics tools to optimize content delivery and user engagement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, frame busting scripts to prevent clickjacking, and use of reputable analytics and ad services. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. However, the absence of a published security policy, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms such as security.txt limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. The site should consider implementing these to enhance trust and compliance with best practices. Overall, the security measures align well with the expectations for a public media entity.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting.
  2. Add explicit Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to mitigate XSS risks.
  3. Improve lazy loading image error handling to enhance user experience.
  4. Publish detailed security and incident response policies accessible to users.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern tech stack including jQuery 3.6.0, Video.js for media playback, Google Tag Manager for script management, and multiple analytics platforms such as Gemius and Chartbeat. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and accessibility features. Performance is moderate with some lazy loading image errors noted. The use of Google Publisher Tags indicates monetization via advertising. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details were not found. Overall, the technical implementation supports a professional and scalable media platform.
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.
