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

The website www.macibuiestade.lv represents a Latvian professional education institution named SIA Biznesa Vadības Konsultācijas, operating under the brand BVK. The organization offers a variety of professional development and continuing education courses targeted at adult learners. The site is well-structured, with clear descriptions of its educational services and a consistent branding approach. The business appears to be a small-sized local education provider founded around 2018, focusing on professional training and seminars. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Divi theme and incorporates common Google services such as Analytics, Tag Manager, and Adsense for tracking and advertising purposes. The site demonstrates moderate performance and good mobile optimization but lacks advanced accessibility features. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS but lacks visible security headers and privacy compliance documentation, which lowers its security posture. The absence of WHOIS data limits the ability to fully verify domain legitimacy, but the website content and structured data suggest a legitimate business. Overall, the site is functional and professional but requires improvements in privacy, security, and transparency to enhance trust and compliance.

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

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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

      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';…
  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
  3. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security

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 business operates in the education sector, providing professional development and continuing education courses primarily to adults in Latvia. Its market position is that of a specialized local education provider with a focused service offering. The business model revolves around paid training courses and seminars, likely generating revenue through course fees. The company leverages digital marketing tools such as Google Adsense and Tag Manager to reach its audience. The lack of visible privacy policies and contact emails suggests room for improvement in customer engagement and regulatory compliance. The company is likely small in size, with no subsidiaries or partner domains identified. The website's content quality and branding consistency support a credible market presence, though enhanced transparency and security would strengthen its competitive advantage.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, which is a fundamental security requirement. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS indicates a basic security posture. No explicit vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The lack of privacy and cookie policies raises compliance concerns, particularly regarding GDPR. No incident response or security contact information is provided, limiting the organization's readiness to handle security incidents. The use of common third-party scripts like Google Analytics and Adsense introduces moderate tracking but no apparent malicious activity. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, with significant opportunities for improvement in headers, policies, and incident readiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance and inform users about data handling.
  2. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish clear incident response and security contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Verify and monitor WHOIS data to ensure domain registration details are accurate and consistent with business claims.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and update third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using the Divi theme, a popular and flexible platform for content management. It integrates Google services including Analytics, Tag Manager, and Adsense for tracking and advertising. The site uses jQuery as a JavaScript library. Performance is moderate, with some optimization evident in mobile responsiveness and SEO meta tags. Accessibility features are basic, with no explicit ARIA roles or advanced accessibility markup detected. The site lacks advanced security configurations such as security headers. No forms were detected in the provided HTML snippet, indicating limited data collection points. The hosting provider is not identified from the available data. Overall, the technical infrastructure is standard for a small business website but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security practices.
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.
