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

RD ALFA Microelectronics is a Latvian technology company specializing in microelectronics, particularly in advanced UV-C photodetectors and radiation-hardened analog integrated circuits. The company collaborates with academic institutions and participates in European research projects, positioning itself as a key player in the European photonics and space sectors. Their business model focuses on B2B industrial technology development and research partnerships, targeting aerospace, defense, and environmental monitoring markets. The company has been operational since at least 2002 and holds ISO 9001:2008 certification, enhancing its credibility. Technically, the website employs legacy technologies such as jQuery 1.6.1 and Fancybox 1.3.1, with Google Analytics for user tracking. The site shows moderate performance and basic mobile optimization but lacks modern security headers and visible HTTPS confirmation in the provided data. The absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. From a security perspective, no critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected, but the use of outdated libraries and missing security headers present potential risks. The lack of incident response contact information and vulnerability disclosure policies further limits the security posture. Overall, the site demonstrates moderate security maturity but requires improvements to meet best practices. The overall risk assessment suggests the company is legitimate and credible but should prioritize updating its technical stack, implementing comprehensive privacy and cookie policies, and enhancing security configurations to improve 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.

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

10 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

      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

      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

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.

Security posture

The current security posture is moderate with no immediate critical vulnerabilities detected. However, the use of outdated JavaScript libraries (jQuery 1.6.1) introduces potential security risks. The absence of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security reduces protection against common web attacks. No privacy or cookie policies are published, indicating compliance gaps with GDPR and related regulations. Incident response readiness is not evident, with no dedicated security or abuse contact channels provided. Data protection practices appear minimal, and user tracking via Google Analytics is implemented without visible consent mechanisms. The security culture could be improved by adopting modern security standards, updating software dependencies, and publishing clear security and privacy policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance and improve user trust.
  2. Upgrade JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to supported and secure versions to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  3. Implement and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  4. Ensure HTTPS is properly configured and enforced across the entire website.
  5. Add visible incident response and abuse contact information to enhance security transparency and readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses legacy front-end technologies including jQuery 1.6.1 and Fancybox 1.3.1, which are outdated and may pose security risks. Google Analytics is integrated for user tracking, but no cookie consent mechanism is present. The site design is functional but dated, with basic mobile optimization and accessibility features. No CMS or hosting provider information is evident from the HTML content. Performance is moderate, with no explicit indicators of optimization or modern frameworks. The lack of modern meta tags and structured data limits SEO effectiveness. Technical debt is present due to outdated libraries and missing security best practices. Modernization opportunities include updating the tech stack, improving mobile responsiveness, and enhancing SEO and accessibility compliance.
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.
