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

TalentHub.lv is a small Latvian company specializing in recruitment and staffing services, focusing on IT and technology sectors. The website presents a professional image with clear descriptions of their key services including talent search, staffing, executive search, and consulting. Their market position is that of a trusted advisor in recruitment within Latvia, targeting businesses seeking efficient and quality talent acquisition solutions. Technically, the website is built on the Squarespace platform, leveraging modern web technologies such as Google Fonts, Weglot for multilingual support, and Google Tag Manager for analytics. The site is mobile optimized and performs moderately well with good SEO practices. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS with HSTS enabled and includes a cookie consent banner, reflecting good security hygiene. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and terms of service pages indicates room for improvement in compliance and transparency. The lack of WHOIS data due to query limits restricts full domain trust verification, but the website content and structure appear legitimate and professional. Overall, the site scores well in content quality, technical implementation, security posture, privacy compliance, and business credibility, making it a trustworthy platform for its intended audience.

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 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 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';…

  3. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

  4. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Unregistered MX Record

      MX record points to unregistered domain: mihpwli3gq7w2ysxezcjapcl4kmavdb5ot7lbbdm4uhbtbmsryba.mx-verification.GOOGLE.COM

      What to do: Remove or fix MX record pointing to unregistered domain

      • RFC 5321 §5.1
      • NIS2 21(2)(i)
      • IR 2024/2690 12.4: Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 12.4: Asset inventory

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

TalentHub.lv operates in the recruitment and staffing sector, primarily serving the IT and technology industries. Their business model revolves around providing tailored talent acquisition services including executive search and consulting. The company emphasizes speed, quality, and individualized client care as competitive advantages. Their digital presence is supported by social media channels on Facebook and LinkedIn, enhancing their market reach and credibility. The website content suggests a small-sized enterprise with a focused regional market in Latvia. There is no indication of parent or subsidiary companies. The company demonstrates awareness of GDPR compliance through privacy and cookie policies. The absence of detailed business registration data and certifications limits deeper business intelligence insights. Nonetheless, the company appears well-positioned to serve local businesses requiring recruitment expertise.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and HSTS enabled, ensuring encrypted communications and protection against protocol downgrade attacks. The presence of a cookie consent banner aligns with privacy regulations such as GDPR. No security headers beyond HSTS were explicitly detected, and no vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the content. The site uses third-party scripts including Google Tag Manager and Weglot, which are reputable but require ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact reduces transparency and preparedness for security incidents. Overall, the security posture is solid for a small business website but could be enhanced by adding explicit security documentation and incident response mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive security policy and incident response plan on the website to improve transparency and preparedness.
  2. Add a terms of service page to clarify user and client agreements.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Obtain and display relevant certifications or trust badges to strengthen business credibility.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Squarespace CMS platform, which provides a stable and secure hosting environment with integrated SSL support. It uses modern web technologies including Google Fonts for typography and Weglot for multilingual capabilities, indicating a focus on internationalization. Google Tag Manager is implemented for analytics and tracking, enabling flexible data collection. The site is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity and SEO optimization. Performance is moderate, typical for CMS-based sites with multiple external resources. There is no evidence of technical debt or deprecated technologies. Opportunities exist to improve accessibility and add advanced security headers. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs effectively with room for incremental improvements.
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.
