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

nra.lv is a prominent Latvian online news portal providing a wide range of current news, commentary, research, photos, videos, and entertainment content primarily in the Latvian language. It serves a broad Latvian-speaking audience interested in local and international affairs, politics, economy, culture, and lifestyle. The site operates a business model based on advertising revenue and partners with several related media outlets, enhancing its market presence in Latvia's media sector. Technically, the website employs a modern JavaScript-heavy stack with multiple third-party analytics, advertising, and tracking services integrated, including Google Analytics, Gemius, and Amazon Ads. The site is mobile-optimized and offers a good user experience with clear navigation and consistent branding. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and uses standard security headers, though some broken image loading issues and extensive third-party scripts present moderate risks. Privacy compliance is well addressed with comprehensive privacy and cookie policies and GDPR adherence. However, explicit security policies and incident response contacts are not publicly available. Overall, nra.lv demonstrates a mature digital presence with good content quality and business credibility, though improvements in security transparency and technical optimizations are recommended.

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

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

nra.lv holds a strong position in the Latvian media market as a major news portal with diversified content offerings and multiple partner sites. Its business model relies on advertising and content monetization, targeting Latvian-speaking users interested in news and lifestyle. The portal's partnerships with related media brands expand its reach and content variety. The site shows signs of professional content management and consistent branding, supporting its credibility. Revenue streams likely include display advertising and sponsored content. The absence of detailed company registration data limits deeper corporate intelligence, but the domain's WHOIS data confirms legitimacy and consistency with the media sector. Growth indicators include active content updates, multimedia integration, and social media engagement. The partnership ecosystem includes several sister sites and lifestyle subdomains, enhancing market coverage.

Security posture

The website maintains a good security posture with enforced HTTPS and assumed standard security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options. No exposed sensitive data or credentials were detected in the HTML content. However, the extensive use of third-party scripts and advertising networks increases the attack surface and potential privacy risks. Some broken lazy-loading images indicate minor technical issues that could affect user experience and possibly security if exploited. The site lacks publicly available security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, which are important for transparency and trust. GDPR compliance is evident through privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be improved by publishing explicit security documentation and reducing third-party dependencies.

Recommendations

  1. Fix broken lazy-loaded images to improve user experience and reduce potential security risks.
  2. Review and minimize third-party scripts and advertising networks to reduce attack surface and improve performance.
  3. Publish explicit security policies and incident response contact information to enhance transparency and trust.
  4. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user inclusivity.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern JavaScript-based front-end with multiple asynchronous scripts for analytics, advertising, and user engagement tools such as push notifications. It integrates Google Fonts, Gemius analytics, Amazon Ads, Cxense, and other marketing technologies. The site appears to be custom-built or uses a proprietary CMS, as no common CMS signatures were detected. Performance is moderate with some lazy loading implemented, though broken images suggest incomplete implementation. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO meta tags are properly set. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. Hosting details are not explicit, but DNS name servers indicate hosting under cadence.lv, a Latvian hosting provider. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a large-scale media portal but has room for optimization and modernization.
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.
