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

7 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 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';…

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 platform targets Latvian youth, providing curated opportunities in employment, education, and personal development. Its partnerships with government agencies, corporations, and NGOs enhance its credibility and reach. The business model revolves around being an information aggregator and facilitator rather than a direct service provider. The presence of personalized job alerts and event recommendations indicates a user-centric approach. Market positioning is strong within Latvia's youth sector, supported by collaborations with recognized entities. Growth potential lies in expanding partnerships and enhancing digital engagement. Revenue streams are not explicit but may include sponsored listings or partnerships. The platform's ecosystem is well-integrated with local stakeholders, fostering trust and relevance.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS, ensuring encrypted communications. Cookie consent is actively managed, reflecting awareness of privacy regulations. However, the absence of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement in defense-in-depth strategies. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found, limiting transparency in security incident handling. No contact information for security incidents or data protection officers is publicly available. The integration of third-party analytics introduces moderate tracking, balanced by privacy policy disclosures. Overall, the security posture is moderate, with foundational protections in place but lacking advanced security controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  2. Publish a security.txt file and establish clear incident response contact channels to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to improve usability for all users, including those with disabilities.
  4. Expand contact information availability, including official emails and phone numbers, to increase business credibility.
  5. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain compliance with evolving regulations.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a modern React-based framework (Next.js) for server-side rendering and performance optimization. Hosting on AWS S3 for static resources indicates scalable infrastructure. Integration with Google Analytics and Hotjar provides insights into user behavior, supporting data-driven improvements. The site demonstrates good mobile responsiveness and SEO optimization through proper meta tags and Open Graph data. However, the lack of detected CMS suggests a custom or headless architecture, which may require dedicated maintenance resources. Performance is moderate, with potential for optimization in resource loading and caching strategies. Technical debt appears low, but security header implementation and accessibility enhancements are recommended to reduce operational risks.
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.
