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

Latvijas Piensaimnieku Centrālā Savienība (LPCS) is a Latvian dairy farmers' central association focused on representing and supporting the dairy industry in Latvia. The website provides comprehensive information about milk production, dairy products, industry regulations, and member services. It targets dairy farmers, industry stakeholders, and the general public interested in dairy-related topics. The business model appears to be a non-profit or industry association providing advocacy, information dissemination, and networking services. Technically, the website uses a traditional web stack with jQuery, Google Fonts, Fancybox for galleries, and Google Analytics for tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with a responsive design and clear navigation. Performance is moderate, and SEO and accessibility are basic but functional. The site uses HTTPS but lacks visible advanced security headers. From a security perspective, the site shows good basic practices such as HTTPS and cookie consent mechanisms. However, it lacks explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and security.txt files. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. The WHOIS data is unavailable due to EURid privacy policies, but the site content and contact information indicate a legitimate organization. Overall, the site is trustworthy with room for security improvements.

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

7 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

  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 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
      • 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

LPCS holds a central position in the Latvian dairy sector, serving as a key representative body for dairy farmers. Its competitive advantage lies in its authoritative role and comprehensive informational resources. The business model is centered on member services, advocacy, and industry promotion rather than direct commercial sales. Revenue streams likely include membership fees and government or EU funding. The target customers are dairy farmers and industry partners in Latvia. Growth indicators include active content updates, contests, and galleries. The partnership ecosystem is not explicitly detailed but likely includes dairy producers and regulatory bodies. The website reflects a stable, established organization with a clear mission and audience.

Security posture

The security maturity level is basic to moderate. The site uses HTTPS and implements cookie consent, indicating awareness of privacy regulations such as GDPR. However, the absence of security headers, vulnerability disclosure policies, and incident response contacts suggests gaps in security governance. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found, but updating libraries and adding security policies would enhance posture. Compliance with GDPR is indicated by privacy and cookie policies. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not publicly visible, which is common for such organizations but could be improved for transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Regularly update JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and Fancybox to their latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness for security incidents.
  4. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve trust with security researchers.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimizations to improve user experience and reach.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a classic web stack using jQuery 3.5.1, Google Fonts, and Fancybox for UI components. Google Analytics is integrated for user tracking. The site is mobile responsive with a clear navigation structure and uses CSS versioning for cache control. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. There is no evidence of a modern CMS or advanced frameworks. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The site could benefit from modernization, including adopting newer JavaScript frameworks and improving accessibility compliance. No technical debt or critical risks were identified, but security header implementation is lacking.
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.
