Scandinavian Ship Services is a Latvian maritime company specializing in ship management and crewing services. The website presents a professional but basic digital presence with clear contact information, partner affiliations, and certification trust signals such as ISO 9001. The company targets maritime industry clients requiring ship management solutions. Technically, the site uses standard frontend technologies like Bootstrap and jQuery, with moderate performance and good mobile responsiveness. Security posture is average with cookie consent implemented but lacking visible security headers and detailed security policies. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain legitimacy verification. Overall, the site is functional and trustworthy but could benefit from enhanced security and compliance 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
5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.
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"
This scan found 20 issues across 6 checks. Monitoring re-runs those checks daily, emails you when something material changes and records each fix, so you can show progress.

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.

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.
Business context
Business profile
The company operates in the transportation sector focusing on maritime ship management and crewing. It appears to be a small-sized entity with a regional market focus in Latvia. The business model is service-oriented, providing specialized maritime operational support. Partnerships with entities like hk-shipping.group suggest integration into a broader maritime service ecosystem. The website content and certifications support a credible business presence, though limited digital marketing or analytics tools are evident. Growth potential may be tied to expanding service offerings and improving digital engagement.
Security posture
The website demonstrates basic security awareness through cookie consent and privacy policy presence. However, the absence of security headers, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure policies indicates room for improvement. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The lack of WHOIS data limits full trust assessment. Enhancing SSL configuration, adding security headers, and publishing security policies would strengthen the security posture and compliance with GDPR and other regulations.
Recommendations
Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and HSTS.
Ensure HTTPS is enforced with strong SSL/TLS configuration and test regularly.
Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency.
Add a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
Regularly update and audit third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
Automated reading of the public site. Ratings are indicative.

Technical notes
Notes
The website uses a conventional frontend stack with Bootstrap 4.1.3, jQuery 1.11.0, FontAwesome 5.5, and Google Fonts. Performance is moderate with basic SEO and accessibility features. No CMS or backend technologies were identified from the HTML content. Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The site is mobile responsive and navigation is clear but content on the homepage is minimal. There is an opportunity to modernize the tech stack and improve SEO and accessibility compliance for better user experience and search engine ranking.
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.
