AS "Rīgas Siltums" is a prominent energy company based in Riga, Latvia, specializing in the supply of heat energy and related services. The company targets residential customers, building managers, and other energy consumers within Riga, offering services such as heat energy tariffs, construction planning, energy efficiency initiatives, and customer support. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence, supported by certifications like ISO 50001, indicating a commitment to energy management standards. Technically, the website is built on the Drupal CMS platform, utilizing modern web technologies including jQuery and Leaflet.js for interactive maps. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are employed for analytics and marketing purposes. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices, although accessibility features could be enhanced. Performance is moderate, with room for improvement in loading speed and technical modernization. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS and implements a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, it lacks several security headers that could strengthen its defense against common web vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected, and forms appear to be securely implemented. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security governance. Overall, the website scores well on content quality, privacy compliance, and business credibility, reflecting a trustworthy and professional online presence. Strategic recommendations include enhancing security headers, publishing a security policy, improving accessibility, and maintaining regular audits of third-party scripts to mitigate potential risks.

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. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

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 · found on this site
  • 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

AS "Rīgas Siltums" holds a leading position in Riga's heat energy market, operating as a utility provider with a clear focus on energy supply and efficiency. The company leverages certifications such as ISO 50001 to demonstrate compliance with international energy management standards, which supports its competitive advantage. Its business model revolves around serving a broad customer base including residents and building managers, with revenue streams primarily from heat energy tariffs and related services. The website's partnership ecosystem includes local organizations and government bodies, enhancing its market presence. Growth indicators are positive, with active communication of construction plans, energy-saving measures, and customer engagement through multiple channels.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS enforcement and GDPR-compliant cookie management. The absence of critical vulnerabilities and exposed sensitive data is a positive indicator. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents a gap in defense-in-depth strategies. The site does not publish a dedicated security policy or incident response contacts, which could hinder timely communication during security events. Overall, the security culture appears adequate but could benefit from formalized policies and enhanced technical controls to align with best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance website accessibility features to meet international standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Conduct regular security audits of third-party scripts and dependencies to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal CMS with a technology stack that includes jQuery 2.1, Leaflet.js for mapping, and Google Analytics for user tracking. The site uses Google Fonts and external CSS/JS resources loaded via CDN. Performance is moderate, with some optimization opportunities in asset loading and caching. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design elements, though accessibility could be improved. SEO practices are good, with proper meta tags and structured navigation. No major technical debt is evident, but modernization of JavaScript libraries and enhanced security configurations would benefit long-term stability and security.
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.
