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

Veselava.lv is a local community and cultural heritage website representing Veselavas pagasta (parish) in Latvia. It provides information about local tourism, cultural events, education, and community organizations. The site is supported by the local government and international aid (CIDA), targeting local residents and visitors interested in Latvian culture. The website uses basic web technologies including JavaScript and Google Analytics for tracking. The design and content quality are basic but relevant to its audience. Security posture is moderate with HTTPS implied but lacking advanced security headers and privacy policies. WHOIS data is unavailable due to query limits, limiting full domain trust analysis. Overall, the site serves as a modest community portal with room for technical and security improvements.

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

8 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"

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 website positions itself as a niche local government and community portal focusing on cultural heritage and tourism in Veselava. It leverages partnerships with local organizations and promotes events and local attractions. The business model is informational and community service-oriented, supported by local government funding and international aid. The target audience includes local residents, tourists, and cultural enthusiasts. The site lacks commercial revenue streams and advanced digital marketing but maintains a presence on social media platforms. Growth potential lies in enhancing digital presence and improving user engagement through modern web technologies.

Security posture

The security maturity of veselava.lv is basic. The site uses HTTPS but lacks visible security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS. Forms do not show explicit anti-CSRF protections. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating compliance gaps with GDPR and other data protection regulations. Google Analytics is used without visible consent mechanisms. The site does not display incident response or vulnerability disclosure information. Overall, the security posture is adequate for a small community site but requires enhancements to meet modern security and privacy standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with user consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers including Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Improve mobile responsiveness and accessibility to enhance user experience across devices.
  4. Introduce form security measures such as CSRF tokens and input validation to prevent abuse.
  5. Establish an incident response contact and vulnerability disclosure policy to improve security transparency and readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses legacy JavaScript menu scripts (CoolMenus 4) and Google Analytics for tracking. No modern CMS or frameworks are detected, indicating a static or custom-built site. The site lacks mobile optimization and accessibility features. Performance is moderate but could be improved with modern front-end technologies and responsive design. SEO is basic with minimal meta tags and no structured data like JSON-LD or Open Graph tags. Hosting provider and infrastructure details are not discernible from the content. Technical debt is present due to outdated scripts and lack of modern web standards.
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.
