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

6 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

    • 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

  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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

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

TVNET operates as a major media entity in Latvia, focusing on news and multimedia content delivery. Its business model combines advertising with subscription services, targeting a broad Latvian-speaking audience interested in current affairs, sports, and lifestyle content. The company leverages partnerships with related media sites and maintains a multi-platform presence including mobile apps. The presence of multiple social media channels and a comprehensive contact infrastructure supports audience engagement and trust. The company appears stable and well-established, with no suspicious patterns in domain registration or business operations.

Security posture

The website exhibits a good security posture with HTTPS enabled and multiple security best practices in place, including cookie consent and privacy policy adherence. However, explicit HTTP security headers like Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options are not visibly configured in the HTML source, which could be improved. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The use of third-party scripts is extensive, which requires ongoing monitoring to mitigate supply chain risks. Incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies are not publicly visible, suggesting an area for enhancement in transparency and security maturity.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and enforce Content-Security-Policy and other HTTP security headers to enhance protection against XSS and clickjacking.
  2. Publish a clear vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Enhance incident response transparency by providing dedicated security contact channels.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies for vulnerabilities and update them promptly.
  5. Continue to improve accessibility features to meet higher standards and broaden audience inclusivity.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern technology stack including JavaScript, CSS3, and HTML5, with integration of advanced subscription management via Piano and multiple analytics and advertising platforms such as Google Analytics, Chartbeat, Gemius, and Teads. Hosting appears to be provided by Hetzner Online, inferred from embedded iframe parameters. Performance is moderate with preloading of images and asynchronous loading of scripts. Mobile optimization is good, and SEO is supported by comprehensive meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD). Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The site architecture supports a rich user experience with clear navigation and multimedia content delivery.
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.
