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

Latvijas Tirdzniecības un rūpniecības kamera (LTRK) is the largest business association in Latvia, representing over 8000 members including individual companies and business associations across various sectors and regions. The organization provides key services such as export support, interest representation, business forums, and training seminars, positioning itself as a central hub for Latvian businesses. The website reflects a mature digital presence with a WordPress CMS, modern frontend libraries, and integration with marketing and consent tools like MailerLite and Cookiebot. However, the website suffers from a critical security weakness due to an invalid or missing SSL certificate, which undermines user trust and data security. Other security best practices such as HSTS, DNSSEC, and domain protection locks are not implemented, further impacting the security posture. Despite these issues, the site maintains good privacy compliance with clear privacy and cookie policies and provides comprehensive contact information. The domain registration data aligns well with the organization's identity, supporting legitimacy. Overall, the website is functional and professional but requires urgent security improvements to protect users and enhance 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

8 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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

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

LTRK operates as a membership-based non-profit business association with a strong market position in Latvia, leveraging its extensive member base and long history. Its business model focuses on advocacy, networking, and service provision to businesses of all sizes. The organization benefits from partnerships with notable international bodies such as Eurochambres, ICC, and the European Enterprise Network, enhancing its influence and service offerings. Revenue streams likely include membership fees and event participation. The website targets Latvian entrepreneurs and business associations, providing multilingual support (Latvian and English). Growth indicators include active event calendars and news updates. The partnership ecosystem is robust, reflecting strategic collaborations. The organization's operations appear transparent and well-structured, with clear contact channels and social media engagement.

Security posture

The current security posture of the website is weak due to the absence of a valid SSL certificate, which is a critical vulnerability affecting all encrypted communications. The lack of HSTS and DNSSEC further exposes the site to potential man-in-the-middle and DNS spoofing attacks. Email security is minimal with a DMARC policy set to none, increasing the risk of email spoofing. The absence of domain protection locks raises the risk of unauthorized domain transfers or modifications. On the positive side, the site does not use vulnerable SSL/TLS protocols or cipher suites, and no known vulnerabilities like Heartbleed or POODLE are detected. The site employs standard security practices for forms and uses reputable third-party services for marketing and consent management. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, indicating a potential gap in transparency and readiness. Overall, the site requires immediate remediation of SSL issues and enhancement of DNS and email security controls to meet modern standards and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Obtain and deploy a valid SSL/TLS certificate to enable HTTPS and secure user data.
  2. Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to enforce secure connections.
  3. Implement DNSSEC to protect DNS integrity and prevent spoofing.
  4. Configure a stricter DMARC policy to improve email authentication and reduce spoofing risks.
  5. Enable domain protection locks to prevent unauthorized domain changes.
  6. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  7. Optimize website performance to reduce load times and improve user experience.
  8. Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to maintain a strong security posture.
  9. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user inclusivity.
  10. Maintain consistent branding and update content regularly to sustain trust and engagement.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Bootstrap 5 and uses jQuery and Swiper.js for frontend interactivity. It integrates marketing and consent management tools such as MailerLite and Cookiebot, indicating a mature digital marketing approach. Hosting and DNS services are provided by Cloudflare, offering CDN and DNS resilience. Despite modern technologies, the site suffers from slow load times (over 12 seconds) and lacks a valid SSL certificate, which is a significant technical and security deficiency. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and includes SEO-friendly meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Accessibility is basic but present. The technical stack is standard for business association websites but requires improvements in security and performance optimization to reduce technical debt and risks.
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.
