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

SigmaNet is a well-established Latvian hosting and telecommunications provider with over 25 years of experience, offering a range of services including email hosting, web hosting, domain registration, VPS, server colocation, and SSL certificates. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand image targeting businesses and individuals in Latvia seeking reliable hosting solutions. The company maintains a strong market position supported by partnerships with recognized organizations such as NIC.lv and CERT.lv. Technically, the website employs a modern JavaScript stack including jQuery, jQuery UI, Remodal, Photoswipe, and integrates analytics and marketing tools like Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Hotjar. The site is mobile optimized with good SEO practices and clear navigation, although accessibility features are basic. Performance is moderate with room for improvement. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and SSL certificates, includes a login form with POST method, and implements cookie consent mechanisms. However, explicit security headers are not detected, and no dedicated security or incident response policies are published. WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, slightly reducing trust but the overall legitimacy is supported by the website content and partner affiliations. Overall, SigmaNet's website demonstrates a solid business and technical foundation with good privacy compliance and marketing transparency. Strategic improvements in security headers, incident response documentation, and WHOIS transparency would enhance trust and security 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

5 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

    • 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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, Twitter, Google APIs

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

  2. Security headers

    • 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

SigmaNet operates as a medium-sized essential entity in the telecommunications sector, focusing on hosting and email services primarily for Latvian customers. Its long-standing presence since 1992 and partnerships with national and international organizations position it as a trusted local provider. The business model centers on subscription-based hosting and domain services with additional offerings like VPS and SSL certificates. The company leverages digital marketing and analytics tools to engage customers and optimize service delivery. Growth indicators include diversified service plans and custom plan calculators. The partnership ecosystem includes NIC.lv, CERT.lv, Eduroam, and GEANT, enhancing credibility and service reach.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and SSL certificates in use. The presence of a login form using POST method and cookie consent banner indicates attention to basic security and privacy practices. However, the absence of explicit HTTP security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) and lack of published security or incident response policies represent gaps. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The WHOIS data unavailability limits domain trust verification. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but could be improved with enhanced headers, documented policies, and DNSSEC implementation.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Publish explicit security policy and incident response documentation on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly update all JavaScript libraries and dependencies to their latest secure versions to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enable DNSSEC for the domain to enhance DNS security and trustworthiness.
  5. Consider adding a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve security communication.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of legacy and modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.9.1 and jQuery UI 1.12.0, along with Remodal and Photoswipe for UI components. Analytics and marketing integrations include Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Hotjar, indicating a mature digital marketing approach. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata and structured navigation. However, no CMS or hosting provider details are explicitly identified. Performance is moderate, with potential improvements in loading speed and accessibility. The technical stack is stable but could benefit from modernization and enhanced security configurations.
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.
