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

Melnie mūki is a well-established restaurant located in the heart of Riga, Latvia, offering European cuisine with Latvian flavors. The business has been operating for approximately 24 years, serving a diverse clientele including locals and tourists seeking a calm dining experience in a historic building. The website reflects a professional hospitality business with clear service offerings such as dining, event hosting, and banquet services. The digital presence is supported by a modern CMS (Piranha CMS) and includes multi-language support, enhancing accessibility for a broader audience. Technically, the website employs contemporary web technologies including Bootstrap 5, jQuery, and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing. The site is mobile-optimized and includes a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, some security best practices such as comprehensive security headers and incident response contact information are missing, which could be improved to enhance the security posture. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and has basic privacy compliance features, but lacks visible advanced security policies or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. The absence of WHOIS data limits the ability to fully verify domain legitimacy, but the website content and business information appear consistent and trustworthy. Overall, the site presents a moderate risk profile with room for improvement in security and compliance transparency. Strategically, the business should focus on enhancing security headers, publishing clear privacy and security policies, and establishing incident response contacts to build greater trust and compliance. Continued investment in technical modernization and user experience will support sustained market presence in the competitive hospitality sector.

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

9 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

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

Melnie mūki occupies a niche in the hospitality sector as a traditional European-Latvian cuisine restaurant with a long-standing presence in Riga's historic center. Its competitive advantage lies in its heritage location and consistent quality offerings, appealing to both locals and visitors. The business model centers on direct dining services, event hosting, and banquet arrangements, generating revenue through on-site consumption and private events. The target customer segments include individuals seeking quiet dining, romantic dinners, business lunches, and event organizers. Growth indicators include a stable website with multi-language support and digital marketing tools like Google Tag Manager. The partnership ecosystem is minimal with no explicit partner domains detected. The company appears to operate independently without subsidiaries or parent companies. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to expand digital engagement and improve compliance transparency to enhance customer trust and regulatory adherence.

Security posture

The current security maturity level of the website is moderate. HTTPS is implemented, and cookie consent mechanisms are in place, indicating awareness of basic privacy requirements. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, limiting preparedness for security incidents. Compliance with GDPR is partially demonstrated through cookie consent and privacy policy presence, but could be improved with clearer documentation and contact points. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The use of third-party scripts like Google Tag Manager introduces moderate tracking but is common practice. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small hospitality business but would benefit from enhancements in security policy transparency and technical safeguards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a detailed privacy policy and terms of service prominently linked in the website footer or header.
  3. Establish and publicize incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and CMS components to minimize exposure to known vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Piranha CMS 11.0.0 and uses modern front-end technologies including Bootstrap 5 and jQuery 3.7.0, ensuring responsive design and compatibility across devices. Google Tag Manager is integrated for analytics and marketing purposes. The site loads external scripts from trusted CDNs such as ajax.googleapis.com and cdn.jsdelivr.net, supporting performance and reliability. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO meta tags including Open Graph are properly configured. However, no advanced frameworks or hosting provider details are evident from the HTML content. Performance is moderate with no explicit speed metrics available. Accessibility features are basic but present. Technical debt appears low, though security header implementation is lacking.
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.
