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

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

MiniCredit SIA holds a solid position in the Latvian consumer finance market, offering a range of credit products tailored to individuals and businesses. The business model focuses on online lending with automated loan calculators and application forms. The company demonstrates regulatory compliance and transparency through detailed loan terms and licensing information. Marketing efforts leverage multiple tracking and retargeting platforms to engage customers. The presence of a credit license and clear contact details enhances credibility. However, the absence of WHOIS data limits external verification of domain legitimacy. The company appears to maintain a medium-sized operation with a focus on Latvian market penetration and customer service.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and uses secure login and password recovery forms, indicating a baseline security posture. However, the absence of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of third-party analytics and retargeting scripts introduces moderate tracking but no direct security risks were identified. Incident response and security policy information are not publicly available, which could be a compliance gap. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could benefit from enhanced header implementation and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and compliance.
  3. Regularly update JavaScript libraries to the latest stable versions to reduce vulnerability risks.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance with standards and user experience for all users.
  5. Expand privacy policy details to explicitly address GDPR compliance and data retention practices.

Technical notes

Notes

The website utilizes a traditional web stack with jQuery and jQuery UI for UI components and interactions. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for tracking, along with Facebook Pixel and Draugiem.lv retargeting scripts for marketing. The site loads CSS and JS assets from its own domain and Cloudfront CDN, indicating a hybrid hosting and CDN setup. Performance is moderate with no explicit indicators of optimization or caching strategies. Mobile optimization is good with responsive design elements. The site lacks a detectable CMS, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Technical debt is moderate due to use of older jQuery versions and missing security headers. Opportunities exist to modernize the tech stack and improve security and accessibility.
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.
