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

Sunstar Academy is a Latvian professional education center specializing in workplace safety training using modern technologies and interactive methods. It operates under the parent company Sunstar Group and collaborates with subsidiaries Meemo and Optiv to provide a comprehensive suite of services including e-learning platforms and onsite training. The website demonstrates a good level of digital maturity with multimedia content, responsive design, and clear navigation. Privacy compliance is well addressed with cookie consent mechanisms and a comprehensive privacy policy in Latvian. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and CSRF protections, though explicit security headers and incident response information are absent, representing areas for improvement. Overall, the site is professional, trustworthy, and safe for general audiences, but the lack of WHOIS data limits domain legitimacy verification.

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

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube

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

  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"

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

Sunstar Academy positions itself as a specialized provider of workplace safety education in Latvia, targeting companies and employees requiring occupational safety training. Its business model combines practical training sessions with digital content delivery, leveraging technology such as virtual reality and interactive scenarios. The company benefits from strong trust signals including ISO 9001 certification and memberships in reputable industry organizations. Partnerships with related entities like Sunstar Group and Meemo enhance its service offerings. The website content and structure reflect a focused and professional approach, supporting growth in the education sector. Revenue streams likely include course fees and digital platform subscriptions. The company maintains active social media presence on LinkedIn and Facebook, supporting brand visibility and customer engagement.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS with a valid SSL configuration and includes CSRF tokens, indicating attention to basic web security. A cookie consent banner ensures compliance with GDPR cookie regulations. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No public security policy or incident response contacts are provided, which could hinder timely vulnerability reporting and response. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The use of Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics is transparent and consent-based. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced by publishing security policies, adding security headers, and implementing a vulnerability disclosure program.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a formal security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  2. Add essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to improve protection against common web attacks.
  3. Create and maintain a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerable components are included.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and provide more detailed data retention policies to strengthen privacy compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern web technologies including HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, and Google Tag Manager for analytics. It employs Turbolinks for faster page navigation and Material Icons for UI elements. Multimedia content such as embedded videos and interactive elements are used effectively. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and includes accessibility features such as ARIA labels. Performance is moderate with no major issues detected. The lack of CMS identification suggests a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not discernible from the HTML content. Overall, the technical implementation supports a professional user experience but could benefit from enhanced security headers and more explicit 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.
