Risk levelHigh

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

Rīgas Lietuviešu vidusskola is a Latvian secondary educational institution serving the Lithuanian community in Riga. The website provides comprehensive information about the school, including schedules, staff, student activities, projects, and contact details. The site is built on Joomla CMS with common web technologies such as jQuery and Bootstrap, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. The presence of cookie consent and privacy policy pages shows awareness of GDPR compliance. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS usage implied but lacking explicit security headers and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. Overall, the site is functional and trustworthy but could benefit from enhanced security practices and transparency. The lack of WHOIS data limits domain legitimacy verification, but the website content and contact information support its authenticity.

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

    • 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. 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"

    • 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 school operates as a public educational institution targeting students and parents in Riga, Latvia. Its business model focuses on providing secondary education and extracurricular activities. The website's content and structure suggest a well-established local presence with active community engagement through projects and social media. The absence of commercial activities or payment processing indicates a non-profit or government-funded entity. The partnership ecosystem is not explicitly detailed, but external links to educational platforms and social media are present. Growth indicators include ongoing projects and active news updates. Strategic observations highlight the need for improved security and compliance transparency to enhance stakeholder trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS usage and cookie consent mechanisms. However, it lacks critical security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options. No vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file is present, limiting incident response readiness. The Joomla CMS platform requires regular updates to mitigate known vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or obvious vulnerabilities were detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security maturity is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing best practices and formal policies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Establish and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy and security.txt file to improve incident response transparency.
  3. Regularly update Joomla CMS and all plugins to the latest secure versions.
  4. Enhance SSL/TLS configuration and verify with external security tools.
  5. Provide clear security and privacy contact information including a Data Protection Officer if applicable.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Joomla CMS with a combination of jQuery, Bootstrap, FancyBox, and icon fonts for UI/UX. The site is moderately optimized for mobile devices and accessibility but could improve in these areas. Performance is moderate with external CDN usage for some libraries. SEO is basic with meta tags and Open Graph tags present but no advanced structured data like JSON-LD. The site lacks advanced security configurations and modern web security headers. Technical debt may exist due to missing security best practices and potential outdated CMS components. Modernization opportunities include adopting newer CMS versions, improving mobile responsiveness, and enhancing 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.
