Security score

40/100

Risk levelHigh

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

The National Maritime Pilots Association of Latvia operates as a non-governmental organization representing Latvian marine pilots. Founded in 2003, it focuses on protecting pilots' rights, promoting professional knowledge, and representing their interests nationally and internationally. The website serves as an informational platform targeting maritime professionals and stakeholders in Latvia's shipping and port industry. Technically, the site is built on WordPress, utilizing common JavaScript libraries and plugins such as jQuery, Coin Slider, and Google Maps API. It employs HTTPS and Google Analytics for visitor tracking but lacks advanced security headers and privacy disclosures. The security posture is basic, with room for improvement in headers and compliance documentation. Overall, the site is professional and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy policies and security practices to align with modern standards.

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

10 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

      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

      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';…

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 association holds a niche position within the maritime transportation sector in Latvia, serving as a key representative body for marine pilots. Its business model is non-profit and advocacy-focused, relying on membership and industry collaboration. The website's external links indicate strong connections with maritime weather services, vessel tracking platforms, and international pilot associations, suggesting a well-established partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators are limited but the organization's longevity since 2003 implies stability. The absence of detailed contact information and privacy policies may limit engagement and trust from broader audiences.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a foundational security setup with HTTPS enabled, which is mandatory. However, the absence of critical security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS reduces its defense against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosures or incident response contacts are provided, indicating limited readiness for security incidents. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics and YouTube embeds introduces potential privacy concerns without explicit user consent mechanisms. Overall, the security maturity is basic and would benefit from implementing standard web security best practices and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance statements.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers for general and security-related inquiries.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to improve incident response readiness.
  5. Enhance mobile responsiveness and accessibility to improve user experience and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with standard plugins for sliders and galleries, leveraging jQuery and Google Maps API for interactive features. The site loads moderately fast but lacks advanced performance optimizations. Mobile optimization is basic, with some responsiveness but no advanced accessibility features detected. SEO is basic with meta tags present but no structured data or Open Graph tags found. The use of Google Analytics indicates visitor tracking but without visible privacy controls. The technical stack is stable but could be modernized with updated frameworks and enhanced security configurations.
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.
