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

UniCon Group operates a well-established fan convention in Riga, Latvia, focusing on geek culture including cosplay, K-pop, gaming, and comics. The website for UniCon 2025 is professionally designed, mobile-optimized, and rich in content, targeting a broad audience of pop culture enthusiasts. The event is scheduled for August 15-17, 2025, at the Kipsala International Exhibition Centre, with detailed program and ticketing information available. The business model centers on event organization and ticket sales, leveraging partnerships such as with Bilesu Serviss for ticketing services. Technically, the site uses modern web technologies including Webflow CMS, Google Fonts, and analytics tools like Yandex Metrika and Google Tag Manager, ensuring good performance and SEO. Security posture is solid with HTTPS and no visible vulnerabilities, though security headers and formal policies are absent. Privacy compliance is weak due to missing privacy and cookie policies. WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, limiting domain trust verification. Overall, the site is trustworthy and professional but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security disclosures.

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.

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

    • 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

  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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

    • 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';…

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

UniCon Group holds a strong market position as a leading geek culture convention in Latvia and the Baltic region, with a history since 2013. Their competitive advantage lies in a diverse program covering cosplay, K-pop, gaming, and community engagement. Revenue streams primarily come from ticket sales and vendor participation. The target customers are fans of pop culture, gaming, and related entertainment. The company maintains active social media channels to engage its community and promote events. Partnerships with ticketing platforms and event venues support operational efficiency. Growth indicators include expanding event offerings and consistent annual scheduling. Strategic observations suggest opportunities to improve privacy compliance and formalize security policies to enhance trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to strong security posture with HTTPS enforced and no exposed sensitive data detected. Use of reputable third-party libraries and analytics tools is noted. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and lack of published security or incident response policies represent gaps. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file is present, which could hinder coordinated vulnerability reporting. Privacy compliance is limited, with no visible privacy or cookie policies, potentially exposing the organization to regulatory risks under GDPR. Incident response readiness and security culture indicators are not evident from the site. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for an event site but requires improvements in policy transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement and configure security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Create and publish a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Add explicit incident response contact information for security issues.
  5. Enhance transparency around data collection, retention, and user consent mechanisms.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Webflow platform, utilizing modern front-end technologies such as jQuery, Tippy.js for tooltips, and Google Fonts for typography. It integrates analytics via Yandex Metrika and Google Tag Manager, indicating a mature approach to user behavior tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good accessibility features. Performance is fast with optimized images and minimal blocking scripts. However, there is no explicit hosting provider information. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, supporting a positive user experience and SEO. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and privacy-related technical implementations.
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.
