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

Apartamenti Pālena medību muižā is a small hospitality business offering studio-type apartment accommodations in a historic manor located in Tērvete, Latvia. The website targets tourists and visitors interested in local sightseeing and heritage tourism. The business appears to have been operating since at least 2015, with a niche market position focused on regional tourism. The website is multilingual, supporting Latvian, English, Russian, and Polish languages, enhancing accessibility for international visitors. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using Bootstrap for responsive design and includes Google Analytics for visitor tracking. The site demonstrates moderate performance and good mobile optimization. SEO is supported by the Yoast SEO plugin, and multilingual content is managed via WPML. However, no hosting provider information is discernible from the data. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS, but no security headers were detected in the provided data. There are no visible forms on the homepage, reducing immediate attack surface. Privacy and cookie policies are absent, indicating potential compliance gaps with GDPR. The WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, but external trust signals such as Booking.com and Facebook links support the legitimacy of the business. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be improved by adding security headers, privacy policies, and cookie consent mechanisms.

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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  2. Security headers

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

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 business operates in the hospitality sector, focusing on accommodation services within a historic manor setting. Its market positioning is niche, targeting tourists interested in cultural and natural attractions in the Tērvete region of Latvia. The business model is straightforward, providing lodging services with additional local sightseeing information. Revenue streams likely derive from accommodation bookings, possibly facilitated through Booking.com. The multilingual website indicates an intent to attract international visitors. The presence of social media and booking platform links suggests an active partnership ecosystem. Growth indicators are not explicit but the website's longevity since 2015 suggests stable operations.

Security posture

The current security maturity level is moderate. HTTPS is enforced, which is essential. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No forms or input fields on the homepage limit exposure to injection attacks. Privacy and cookie policies are missing, indicating compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are not evident. The use of standard WordPress plugins requires regular updates to mitigate vulnerabilities. Overall, the security culture appears basic with room for improvement in compliance and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with visible links on the website to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Establish a security.txt file and a clear vulnerability disclosure process to improve incident response readiness.
  4. Provide clear contact information including company email and phone number to enhance trust and business credibility.
  5. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with Bootstrap 3.3.6 for responsive design and jQuery 1.11.2 for scripting. It uses the Yoast SEO plugin for search engine optimization and WPML for multilingual support. Google Analytics is integrated via ExactMetrics plugin for visitor tracking. The site loads external resources from trusted CDNs such as Google Fonts and MaxCDN. Performance is moderate with no evident broken elements. Mobile optimization is good due to Bootstrap usage. Accessibility is basic, with no explicit ARIA or accessibility features detected. The site lacks advanced security headers and cookie consent mechanisms, which are technical debt areas. Hosting provider details are not disclosed.
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.
