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

9 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

  2. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection

  3. 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 · found on this site
  • 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

Unicom positions itself as a competitive hosting provider in the European market, leveraging instant provisioning and a range of hosting services. Its business model focuses on managed cloud hosting solutions with clear pricing and service descriptions. The presence of customer testimonials and partner logos enhances credibility. The company appears to operate independently without subsidiaries or parent companies. Revenue streams likely derive from hosting subscriptions and SSL certificate sales. The multilingual site supports broader regional reach. The lack of phone contact may indicate a focus on digital communication channels. Strategic partnerships are limited to social media presence and datacenter hosting in Riga.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with mandatory HTTPS and secure form handling via Contact Form 7. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files are present, indicating limited transparency in security operations. GDPR compliance is partially addressed through a privacy policy but lacks cookie consent mechanisms. The site does not expose sensitive data or use vulnerable libraries visibly. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a hosting provider's marketing site but could be improved to meet higher compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Add a cookie consent banner and detailed cookie policy to improve GDPR compliance and user privacy transparency.
  3. Publish explicit security and incident response policies to build trust and demonstrate security maturity.
  4. Regularly update WordPress core and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities and maintain platform security.
  5. Consider deploying DNSSEC to strengthen domain name system security and prevent spoofing.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using Elementor for page building and Yoast SEO for search optimization. It integrates Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for user tracking and marketing insights. The site loads with moderate performance and is mobile responsive with good navigation clarity. The hosting infrastructure is located in a professional datacenter in Riga, Latvia, supporting dedicated and cloud hosting services. Technical debt appears low, but the absence of security headers and cookie consent mechanisms indicates areas for modernization. The site uses standard web technologies including jQuery and Bootstrap, ensuring compatibility and ease of maintenance.
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.
