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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • 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';…
  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

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

AS 4finance operates Vivus.lv as part of its portfolio of financial services brands, targeting the Latvian market with quick online credit offerings. The business model centers on digital lending with streamlined application processes and rapid credit decisions. The company leverages partnerships and sister brands such as smscredit.lv and ondo.lv to expand market reach and service offerings. Revenue streams are primarily from interest and fees on loans. The company maintains a strong online presence with integrated marketing and analytics tools, supporting data-driven growth strategies. The partnership ecosystem includes major technology and advertising providers, enhancing operational efficiency and customer engagement. Strategic observations highlight the importance of maintaining regulatory compliance and enhancing security transparency to sustain market trust and competitive advantage.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS and Cloudflare protection mitigating common web threats. The presence of a detailed cookie consent mechanism aligns with GDPR requirements, enhancing privacy compliance. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options suggests potential gaps in defense-in-depth strategies. No visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies limit transparency and readiness communication. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analysis. The security culture appears focused on compliance and user privacy, but could benefit from enhanced documentation and proactive security communication.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish explicit security headers including CSP, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen browser security.
  2. Develop and make accessible a formal security policy and incident response contact to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance user trust by providing clear terms of service and data protection officer contact information.
  5. Consider publishing a security.txt file and vulnerability disclosure program to encourage responsible reporting and improve security posture.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using PHP backend technology, hosted on Amazon Web Services with Cloudflare providing CDN and security services. Google Tag Manager is extensively used for analytics and marketing integrations. The site employs a comprehensive cookie consent management system from Cookie Information, ensuring GDPR compliance. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. The technical implementation includes modern meta tags and structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO and social media integration. No CMS was explicitly detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Opportunities exist to improve technical security configurations and enhance performance monitoring for continuous improvement.
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.
