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

SIA "Vidzemes veterinārais serviss" is a well-established veterinary service provider in Latvia, founded in 1994. The company operates multiple veterinary clinics across the Vidzeme region, including Valmiera, Limbaži, and Salacgrīva, and offers a comprehensive range of services such as veterinary medical care, surgery, diagnostics, and a veterinary pharmacy. Additionally, they provide biomaterials including frozen bull semen for artificial insemination, targeting both pet owners and agricultural clients. The website reflects a professional and regionally focused business with a clear service offering and customer engagement channels. Technically, the website is built on the Mono CMS platform and employs modern web technologies including Google Analytics and Facebook SDK for marketing and analytics. The site is mobile-optimized with good navigation and content structure, though some accessibility features could be improved. Performance is moderate with standard optimizations in place. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and anonymizes IP addresses in analytics, but lacks several important security headers and explicit security or incident response policies. No critical vulnerabilities were detected in the visible content. Privacy compliance is addressed with a privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism, indicating awareness of GDPR requirements. Overall, the website presents a trustworthy and professional image consistent with a medium-sized regional veterinary service provider. The absence of WHOIS data limits full domain legitimacy verification, but the business information and content quality support a positive risk assessment. Strategic improvements in security headers and incident response transparency are recommended to enhance the security posture and trustworthiness further.

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

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 company holds a solid position in the regional veterinary healthcare market in Latvia, serving both companion animals and agricultural livestock sectors. Their diversified business model includes clinical services, retail pharmacy, and biomaterial sales, which provides multiple revenue streams. The presence of multiple branches and a comprehensive service portfolio indicates a medium-sized operation with regional influence. The integration of marketing tools and social media presence suggests active customer engagement and brand building. The partnership with local web development firm zing.lv indicates investment in digital presence. Growth opportunities may lie in expanding biomaterial offerings and enhancing online service capabilities.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and IP anonymization in analytics is a positive privacy measure. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces protection against common web attacks. The hidden hCaptcha badge suggests CAPTCHA is implemented but not fully visible, which may reduce its effectiveness. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are provided, which is a compliance gap. The site does not expose sensitive data or show signs of vulnerabilities in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is adequate for the business type but could be significantly improved with standard best practices and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Make CAPTCHA visible and ensure it effectively protects forms against automated abuse.
  3. Publish explicit security and incident response policies with dedicated contact channels.
  4. Regularly update and audit third-party libraries and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Mono CMS platform, utilizing standard web technologies such as HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript libraries including jQuery. It integrates Google Analytics and Facebook SDK for tracking and marketing purposes. The site uses responsive design techniques for mobile optimization and lazy loading for images to improve performance. However, some images initially load with minimal dimensions (1px by 1px) before lazy loading, which may impact perceived performance. The site lacks advanced frameworks but maintains a clean and functional technical infrastructure. Hosting provider details are not explicitly identified. There is room for improvement in accessibility and security configurations.
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.
