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

Biznesa augstskola Turība is a recognized Latvian business university offering nationally and internationally accredited study programs in Latvian and English. The website targets prospective and current students seeking higher education in business disciplines, providing information on undergraduate, graduate, doctoral, and e-study programs. The institution maintains a professional online presence with consistent branding and a bilingual interface to serve a diverse audience. Technically, the website integrates modern marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and Adform, alongside a comprehensive cookie consent mechanism powered by Cookiebot, demonstrating compliance with cookie regulations and user privacy awareness. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and includes CSRF tokens for form security, but lacks visible security headers and explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, indicating room for improvement in security posture. The absence of a clearly accessible privacy policy and contact information for data protection or security inquiries suggests partial compliance with GDPR and related regulations. Overall, the website is functional, professional, and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced transparency and security practices to strengthen user trust and regulatory compliance.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…

  2. 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
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 384-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

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 institution holds a stable market position as a medium-sized educational entity in Latvia's higher education sector, focusing on business studies. Its business model revolves around delivering accredited academic programs to students locally and internationally. The website's integration with multiple marketing and analytics platforms indicates active engagement in digital marketing and user behavior analysis to optimize recruitment and retention. The presence of affiliated subdomains for class schedules and student portals reflects a structured digital ecosystem supporting academic operations. However, the lack of visible contact details and formal privacy documentation may impact user confidence and regulatory adherence. Strategic partnerships appear limited to internal subdomains, with no external business partners explicitly identified.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforcement and CSRF protection mechanisms. The comprehensive cookie consent dialog aligns with privacy regulations, showing awareness of GDPR requirements. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection reduces defense-in-depth capabilities. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure policy is present, limiting transparency and incident response readiness. No contact channels for security incidents or abuse reports are found, which could delay response to potential threats. No vulnerable libraries or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. Overall, the security posture is adequate but requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory expectations fully.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy page clearly accessible from the website footer or main navigation.
  2. Implement and configure essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  3. Create and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve incident response transparency.
  4. Add explicit contact information for security incidents, data protection officer, and general inquiries to enhance trust and compliance.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and tracking tools to minimize privacy risks and ensure compliance with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website employs a modern technology stack with integrations of Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Adform tracking, and Cookiebot for cookie consent management. The HTML structure is valid and includes responsive design elements ensuring good mobile optimization and accessibility. SEO is supported by appropriate meta tags and Open Graph properties. However, no CMS or hosting provider information was explicitly detected. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by multiple third-party scripts. The site uses CSRF tokens for form security but lacks visible security headers. The cookie consent implementation is detailed and user-friendly, categorizing cookies by purpose and provider. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business needs but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance optimizations.
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.
