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

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

  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 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 company benefits from a diversified category offering that appeals to a wide audience in Latvia, including individuals and businesses. Its longevity since 2000 indicates stable operations and market trust. Revenue streams likely include paid ad placements and advertising partnerships. The website integrates third-party ad networks and tracking services, indicating monetization through advertising. The absence of direct contact emails or phone numbers on the main page suggests a preference for controlled communication via feedback forms. The company operates independently without publicly listed subsidiaries or parent companies.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and implements a cookie consent mechanism, demonstrating baseline security and privacy awareness. However, no explicit security policies, incident response contacts, or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are published, which limits transparency and readiness indicators. Security headers are not detected in the provided data, suggesting room for improvement in hardening. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the HTML content. The security posture is adequate but could be enhanced by publishing formal policies and implementing security best practices such as security.txt and CSP headers.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information.
  2. Add security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), X-Frame-Options, and HSTS to improve security posture.
  3. Introduce a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  4. Enhance mobile responsiveness and accessibility features to improve user experience.
  5. Increase transparency by providing direct company contact information such as verified emails and phone numbers.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a custom CMS with standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript. It integrates Google Tag Manager for analytics and uses third-party ad networks and tracking pixels. The site is moderately optimized for performance and mobile devices, with basic accessibility features. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Hosting provider details are not disclosed. The technical implementation is solid 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.
