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

The website magdalenasdraudze.lv represents the official online presence of the Rīgas Svētās Marijas Magdalēnas Romas katoļu draudze, a Roman Catholic parish located in Riga, Latvia. The site serves as a community hub providing information about religious services, sacraments, catechesis for children, and various parish activities. It targets local Latvian-speaking parishioners and the broader Catholic community, offering multimedia content such as YouTube live streams and internet radio broadcasts. The business model is non-profit, focused on spiritual and community services rather than commercial activities. Technically, the website is built on WordPress 5.4, utilizing popular plugins and frameworks such as WPBakery Page Builder, Elementor, Bootstrap 4, and jQuery. It employs HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and includes basic security headers like Content-Security-Policy. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are used for visitor tracking, indicating moderate digital maturity. The site is moderately optimized for mobile devices and has a clear navigation structure, though accessibility features are basic. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses CSP headers, which are positive indicators. However, it lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, consent mechanisms, and security or incident response policies. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure information is present. Contact information such as emails or phone numbers is not explicitly provided, which may hinder user trust and compliance with data protection regulations. Overall, the website is a well-structured, content-rich platform serving a small non-profit religious community. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain legitimacy verification, but the site’s content and technical setup suggest a legitimate and trustworthy entity. Strategic improvements in privacy compliance, security transparency, and contact information publication would enhance trust and regulatory adherence.

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.

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 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

      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';…
  3. 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

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 parish operates as a small non-profit entity focused on religious and community services within Riga, Latvia. Its market position is local and community-centric, with no commercial revenue streams evident. The website supports community engagement through event announcements, catechesis schedules, and multimedia content. The use of official Vatican news feeds and Zoom links for theological studies indicates integration with broader Catholic networks. The parish leverages digital tools for outreach but remains focused on its core spiritual mission. There is no indication of partnerships or subsidiaries. Growth indicators are limited but the site’s active content updates and multimedia presence suggest ongoing community involvement.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security posture. HTTPS is enforced, and a Content-Security-Policy header is present, reducing risks from mixed content and some injection attacks. However, the lack of privacy and cookie policies, absence of consent mechanisms, and no published security or incident response policies represent compliance gaps, especially under GDPR and NIS2 frameworks. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is found, limiting transparency for security researchers. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics introduces tracking risks without clear user consent. Overall, the site is secure enough for its purpose but requires enhancements in privacy compliance and security governance to meet modern standards.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with explicit user consent mechanisms to comply with GDPR.
  2. Implement and publicize a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Provide clear contact information including official emails and phone numbers for parish and data protection officer if applicable.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a mature WordPress platform with popular page builders and frameworks, ensuring ease of content management and responsive design. The tech stack includes Bootstrap 4, jQuery, Font Awesome, and Google Fonts, supporting a modern and visually consistent UI. Performance is moderate, with some heavy multimedia content embedded (YouTube videos, internet radio). SEO is basic with proper meta tags but could be improved with structured data and sitemap enhancements. Accessibility is basic, with room for improvement in ARIA roles and keyboard navigation. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid for a small non-profit but could benefit from performance optimization and enhanced accessibility compliance.
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.
