Marine Services Group is a professional service provider specializing in marine, aviation, and transport insurance, along with legal services, ship sale brokerage, and survey services. Positioned as a market leader in their sector, they target clients in shipping, logistics, aviation, and corporate insurance markets primarily in Latvia and surrounding regions. Their website reflects a medium-sized enterprise with a consistent brand and professional content presentation. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern frameworks like Bootstrap and uses common libraries such as jQuery and Feather Icons. SEO is well implemented with Yoast SEO plugin and structured data. Security posture is good with HTTPS enforced and use of Google reCAPTCHA on forms, though additional security headers could enhance protection.

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

  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

Marine Services Group operates in the transportation and insurance sectors, offering specialized insurance products and legal services tailored to marine, aviation, and cargo industries. Their business model focuses on service provision with a strong emphasis on market leadership and professional expertise. The company engages in events and sponsorships, such as supporting Riga Football Club, indicating active community and industry involvement. Their digital presence includes multilingual support and e-services, suggesting a customer-centric approach. The partnership ecosystem includes social media platforms and event hosting, but no direct subsidiaries or parent companies are identified. Growth indicators include regular news updates and event announcements. Revenue streams likely derive from insurance brokerage, legal consulting, and ship sale commissions.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enabled and use of Google reCAPTCHA to protect forms from automated abuse. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No public incident response or security policy pages were found, which could be a gap in transparency and readiness. GDPR compliance is addressed through a privacy policy and cookie consent, but no dedicated data protection officer contact or vulnerability disclosure policy is present. Overall, the security posture is solid but could benefit from enhanced header policies and documented incident response procedures.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response plan on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update all plugins and themes to minimize risks from vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance privacy compliance by providing explicit data protection officer contact details and a vulnerability disclosure policy.
  5. Improve accessibility features to meet higher standards and ensure inclusivity.

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using Bootstrap framework and several JavaScript libraries including jQuery and Feather Icons. SEO is enhanced with Yoast SEO plugin and structured data in JSON-LD format. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are used for analytics and tracking. Cookie consent is managed by a dedicated plugin. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation and performance rated as moderate. Hosting provider details are not explicitly found. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, though some accessibility and security header improvements are recommended to reduce technical debt and enhance user experience.
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.
