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

Rīgas Pārdaugavas Mūzikas un mākslas skola is a Latvian educational institution specializing in music and visual arts education. The website presents a well-structured platform showcasing their educational programs, events, competitions, and achievements, targeting students, parents, and educators in the region. The school offers professional and lifelong learning courses in music and arts, positioning itself as a key local cultural and educational entity. Technically, the website employs standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript with libraries such as jQuery and Modernizr. The site is responsive and mobile-friendly, though it uses an outdated jQuery version which may pose security risks. The site lacks advanced CMS identification and does not show evidence of modern analytics or tracking tools, indicating a relatively simple technical infrastructure. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS but lacks visible security headers and modern security policies. No privacy or cookie policies are present, which is a compliance gap. The absence of WHOIS data limits full domain legitimacy verification, but the site content and contact information suggest a legitimate educational entity. Overall, the site is functional and informative but would benefit from updated security practices, privacy compliance improvements, and enhanced technical modernization to improve trust and security posture.

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

  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 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"

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 institution operates in the education sector, focusing on music and arts education in Riga, Latvia. It serves a medium-sized audience including students and educators. The business model is centered on providing formal education programs and extracurricular activities. The school maintains a local market position with a focus on cultural enrichment and community engagement. The website reflects active participation in competitions and exhibitions, indicating a vibrant educational environment. Partnerships or subsidiaries are not evident from the data. Revenue streams likely include tuition fees and public funding. The digital presence is modest but consistent with the institution's scope.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled but lacks critical security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options. The use of an outdated jQuery version (1.8.3) introduces potential vulnerabilities. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. No incident response or security contact information is provided. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, with recommendations to update libraries, implement security headers, and publish privacy policies to enhance protection and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Update all JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to the latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and enhance user trust.
  3. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options to improve site security.
  4. Establish and publish incident response and security contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  5. Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and remediate potential risks.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a traditional HTML/CSS/JavaScript stack with jQuery 1.8.3 and Modernizr 2.5.3, indicating legacy technology usage. Responsive design is implemented via CSS media queries and FlexNav for navigation. Google Fonts are used for typography. The site loads scripts and stylesheets locally except for fonts.googleapis.com and Google Maps API. Performance is moderate with no evident heavy resources. Accessibility features are basic, with no ARIA roles or landmarks detected. SEO optimization is minimal with basic meta tags but no Open Graph or structured data found. Hosting provider and CMS are not identifiable from the content. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but could benefit from modernization and enhanced SEO and accessibility practices.
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.
