Widen legal is a professional legal services firm established in 2023, operating primarily in the Baltic region (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania). The company offers a broad range of legal services including corporate law, employment law, tax, public procurement, dispute resolution, and more. The firm positions itself as a client-friendly, fast, and optimized legal solutions provider, targeting businesses and individuals requiring legal expertise in multiple sectors. The website reflects a medium-sized firm with a strong regional presence and a comprehensive service portfolio. Technically, the website is built on WordPress CMS, utilizing modern plugins such as Forminator for forms and TranslatePress for multilingual support. Hosting and DNS are managed via Cloudflare, ensuring good performance and security. The site is mobile-optimized and uses HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate. SEO and accessibility are adequately addressed with proper meta tags and structured data. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses Cloudflare DNS but lacks DNSSEC and security headers, which are recommended for enhanced protection. Cookie consent is implemented via CookieYes, indicating some level of privacy compliance, though no explicit privacy policy or terms of service were found in the provided content. Contact information is comprehensive, including emails, phone numbers, and LinkedIn profiles for key personnel. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-maintained, with minor gaps in security best practices and privacy documentation. The domain registration data aligns well with the business claims, supporting legitimacy. Strategic improvements in security headers, DNSSEC, and privacy policy publication would enhance the firm's digital trust and compliance 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

2 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.

    • 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. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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

  • Security headers: did not complete in this scan.
  • 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

Widen legal operates as a regional legal services provider with a focus on Baltic countries. Its competitive advantage lies in a broad sector coverage and experienced legal professionals, many of whom hold leadership roles in specialized practice areas. The firm targets corporate clients, startups, and private clients needing legal advisory in complex areas such as M&A, tax, employment, and regulatory compliance. The business model is service-based, relying on expert legal counsel and client relationships. The presence of multilingual support and detailed team profiles suggests a client-centric approach. Growth indicators include recent establishment with a modern digital presence and active LinkedIn engagement. No parent or subsidiary companies were identified, indicating independent operation.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced with a valid SSL certificate, and Cloudflare DNS provides a reliable hosting environment. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents potential vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Forms are implemented via Forminator plugin, which supports secure input handling, but no explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published. The cookie consent mechanism is present, supporting GDPR compliance to some extent. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a professional services website but can be improved by implementing recommended security headers, DNSSEC, and publishing security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement standard security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  3. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and terms of service accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  4. Add a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible security reporting.
  5. Establish and publish incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS with a modern and responsive design. It uses jQuery and several WordPress plugins such as Forminator for forms and TranslatePress for multilingual support. Google Tag Manager is integrated for analytics and marketing tracking. Hosting is managed via Cloudflare DNS, providing performance and security benefits. The site loads images with responsive srcsets and uses web fonts with preload hints, indicating good performance optimization. Accessibility is basic but present, with semantic HTML and ARIA attributes in forms and navigation. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph, Twitter cards, and JSON-LD structured data. Overall, the technical infrastructure is solid with room for security enhancements.
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.
