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

Novamedia is a Latvian digital marketing agency specializing in SEO optimization, Google Ads, Facebook Ads, TikTok Ads, and social media marketing. The company targets businesses seeking to increase their online visibility and customer acquisition through data-driven and creative marketing strategies. The website presents a professional image with clear service offerings and client success stories, positioning Novamedia as a competent player in the digital marketing sector. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using Elementor and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for tracking and marketing purposes. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, though accessibility features could be enhanced. Security posture is good with HTTPS and security headers in place, but lacks visible privacy and cookie policies and incident response contacts, which are important for compliance and trust. Overall, the website is trustworthy and functional, but could improve privacy compliance and security transparency.

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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. 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

      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

Novamedia operates as a small-sized digital marketing service provider in Latvia, focusing on SEO, paid advertising, and social media marketing. Their business model revolves around delivering tailored marketing campaigns and strategic consulting to help clients grow revenue. The company showcases over 100 successful projects and emphasizes data-driven approaches and creativity. The target customers are businesses looking for effective online marketing solutions. The website's use of structured data and client testimonials enhances credibility. However, the absence of detailed company registration or VAT information limits deeper business verification. The marketing ecosystem includes major ad networks like Google, Facebook, and TikTok, indicating a broad reach and modern marketing practices.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security posture with HTTPS enforced and several security headers detected, which help mitigate common web vulnerabilities. The use of Google Tag Manager allows controlled script management, reducing risks from third-party scripts. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the HTML content. However, the lack of a published privacy policy, cookie consent mechanism, security.txt file, or incident response contact information represents compliance and transparency gaps. These omissions could pose risks in GDPR compliance and incident handling readiness. Regular security audits and adding these missing elements would strengthen the security posture and user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with explicit consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add a security.txt file or dedicated vulnerability disclosure page to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Provide clear incident response contact information such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to improve usability for all users.
  5. Conduct regular third-party script audits and update security headers to maintain a strong security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using the Elementor page builder, which allows flexible and responsive design. It integrates Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing tracking. The site uses Font Awesome icons and jQuery libraries. Performance is moderate with some animations and image optimizations. SEO is enhanced by the Rank Math plugin and proper meta tags including Open Graph and Twitter Cards. The site is mobile-optimized and has a clear navigation structure. However, some technical improvements could include better accessibility compliance and faster loading optimizations. Hosting provider details are not disclosed in the HTML content.
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.
