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

Latvijas Orķestru asociācija (LOA) is a Latvian cultural association dedicated to organizing orchestral festivals and promoting youth and amateur orchestras across Latvia. The website serves as a news and information portal for their events, collaborations, and organizational updates. The association collaborates with local municipalities and cultural institutions to foster orchestral music culture. The website content is well-structured, primarily in Latvian, with some English sections for international visitors. Technically, the website uses common web technologies such as jQuery, TinyMCE for content editing, and a cookie consent library to comply with privacy regulations. The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile devices but lacks advanced SEO and accessibility features. No CMS or hosting provider details were identified. Security headers and SSL configuration details were not available, indicating potential areas for improvement. From a security perspective, the website shows basic compliance with privacy laws through cookie consent and a privacy policy. However, no explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosures are present. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain legitimacy verification, but the website's content and external links to official cultural bodies support its authenticity. No signs of malicious content or vulnerabilities were detected in the provided data. Overall, the website is a credible and professional platform for a small cultural association with room for technical and security enhancements. Strategic recommendations include improving security headers, enhancing mobile and accessibility features, publishing security policies, and obtaining full WHOIS transparency to boost trust and compliance.

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

  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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      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

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

LOA occupies a niche cultural sector focused on orchestral music promotion in Latvia. Its market position is that of a key organizer of youth and amateur orchestral festivals, collaborating with governmental and cultural institutions. The business model is non-profit and event-driven, targeting musicians, educators, and cultural audiences. The website content reflects a stable history of events dating back several years, indicating organizational maturity. The association's partnerships with regional and international orchestral bodies suggest a growing ecosystem. Revenue streams likely include public funding, sponsorships, and event participation fees. The absence of commercial advertising or affiliate programs aligns with its cultural mission. Growth indicators include increasing participant numbers in festivals and expanding regional reach.

Security posture

The current security posture is basic with compliance to privacy regulations via cookie consent and a privacy policy. However, the lack of visible security headers, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosures indicates limited security maturity. No evidence of HTTPS enforcement or SSL configuration was found in the data, which is a critical gap. The website does not expose sensitive data or show signs of vulnerabilities in the analyzed content. The absence of contact information for security incidents reduces readiness for incident response. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small cultural site but requires improvements to meet higher standards and regulatory requirements such as GDPR and NIS2.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce HTTPS with a strong SSL/TLS configuration to secure all communications.
  2. Add essential security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Enhance mobile responsiveness and accessibility to improve user experience and compliance with accessibility standards.
  5. Obtain full WHOIS data transparency to improve domain legitimacy and trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a simple technology stack including jQuery and TinyMCE for content management and editing, along with a cookie consent library to meet privacy requirements. The HTML structure is valid and includes meta viewport tags for responsive design, though mobile optimization is basic. No advanced frameworks or CMS platforms were detected. External resources are loaded from trusted CDNs. Performance appears moderate with no heavy scripts or trackers. SEO optimization is basic with standard meta tags but no Open Graph or JSON-LD structured data found. Accessibility features are minimal. Hosting provider and SSL details are not available, indicating potential areas for infrastructure improvement.
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.
