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

Rīgas Ritmi is a well-established cultural festival based in Latvia, focusing on jazz, improvisation, and global music genres. The website serves as a platform to promote upcoming concerts, artists, and festival news, targeting music enthusiasts and cultural event attendees. The festival has a strong local presence with 25 years of history, positioning itself as a key player in Latvia's cultural media sector. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies such as Google Tag Manager for analytics, Tiny Slider for UI components, and a cookie consent mechanism to comply with GDPR requirements. The site is mobile-optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and relevant content. Security-wise, the site uses HTTPS and cookie consent but lacks visible security headers and explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure information. WHOIS data could not be retrieved, limiting domain legitimacy verification, but the website content and branding appear consistent and professional. Overall, the site scores well on content quality, technical implementation, and business credibility, with room for improvement in security practices and transparency.

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

  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.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  3. 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 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

The festival operates primarily in the media and cultural event sector, generating value through event organization and artist promotion. Its market position is strengthened by a long-standing history and partnerships with notable local organizations and sponsors. The business model revolves around live event production, ticket sales, and cultural promotion. The website reflects a focus on audience engagement through news updates, social media integration, and multimedia content. The partnership ecosystem includes local government and corporate sponsors, enhancing credibility and resource access. Growth indicators include a 25-year anniversary and active event scheduling. However, the absence of direct contact information on the website may limit customer engagement and support. Strategic observations suggest enhancing transparency and security disclosures to build further trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security, which are recommended to mitigate common web vulnerabilities. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure policy is present, limiting external security communication channels. The absence of explicit incident response contacts reduces preparedness visibility. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a cultural event website but could be improved by adopting best practices in HTTP security headers and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability reporting and improve security transparency.
  3. Add explicit incident response contact information on the website to enhance trust and preparedness.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Consider adding a terms of service page to clarify legal terms and user responsibilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern front-end stack with JavaScript libraries such as Tiny Slider for carousels and Google Tag Manager for analytics and tracking. CookieConsent.js is used for GDPR-compliant cookie management. The HTML is well-structured with appropriate meta tags for SEO and social media sharing (Open Graph and Twitter Cards). The site is mobile responsive and loads multimedia content efficiently with lazy loading. No CMS or hosting provider information is explicitly detected. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. Accessibility is basic but could be improved with ARIA roles and better keyboard navigation support. Overall, the technical implementation supports a professional and user-friendly experience but can benefit from enhanced security and accessibility measures.
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.
