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

Latvijas Sabiedriskais medijs is the national public media organization of Latvia, operating multiple television channels including LTV1 and LTV7, as well as digital platforms such as LSM.lv and REplay.lv. It serves a broad audience including general public, children, and diaspora communities, providing news, cultural, educational, and entertainment content. The organization is state-owned and holds a significant position in the Latvian media landscape, being a member of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). The website reflects a mature digital presence with modern technologies and comprehensive content offerings. Technically, the website is built using modern JavaScript frameworks (Nuxt.js and Vue.js), employs performance and analytics tools like Chartbeat and Gemius, and uses Cloudflare for hosting and security insights. The site is well-optimized for mobile and accessibility, with good SEO practices and a professional design. Cookie consent and privacy policies are implemented in compliance with GDPR. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS, uses standard security headers, and does not expose sensitive data. However, explicit security policies, incident response information, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not publicly available, which could be improved to enhance transparency and trust. Overall, the website presents a low risk profile with strong business credibility and technical maturity. Strategic recommendations include publishing detailed security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure information to further strengthen security posture and compliance transparency.

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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • 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

  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

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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

Latvijas Sabiedriskais medijs holds a dominant position as Latvia's public broadcaster, funded by the state and free from commercial advertising. Its business model focuses on public service media, targeting a wide demographic including families, youth, and minority language speakers. The organization leverages multiple content platforms to maximize reach and engagement, including specialized platforms for children and teenagers. Its partnership ecosystem includes related media portals and radio services, enhancing content diversity and audience coverage. Growth indicators include recent platform launches and content expansions. The organization's operations reflect a strategic focus on cultural promotion, education, and reliable news dissemination, positioning it as a trusted national media institution.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive use of security headers, and no visible exposure of sensitive information. Cookie consent mechanisms align with GDPR requirements, indicating attention to privacy compliance. However, the absence of publicly available security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure channels suggests areas for improvement in transparency and readiness. No known vulnerabilities or outdated libraries were detected in the provided content. The organization should consider publishing a security policy and establishing a vulnerability disclosure program to enhance stakeholder trust and incident management capabilities.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and commitments.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information, including security or abuse email addresses.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance transparency by naming a Data Protection Officer or privacy contact.
  5. Maintain and regularly update cookie and privacy policies to reflect evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern JavaScript framework stack (Nuxt.js and Vue.js), enabling server-side rendering and good performance. It uses third-party analytics and tracking tools such as Chartbeat and Gemius, integrated with a cookie consent management system (CookieFirst). Hosting and security insights are provided via Cloudflare. The site is well-structured with preloading of critical assets and optimized images, contributing to fast load times. Accessibility and mobile responsiveness are well addressed. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or headless CMS approach. The technical infrastructure supports a robust and scalable digital media platform, though continuous monitoring for third-party library vulnerabilities is recommended.
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.
