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

The Victim Protection Association (VPA) is a Latvian non-profit organization founded in 2018, dedicated to assisting victims of traffic accidents and other incidents in obtaining appropriate insurance compensation for material and moral damages. The website serves as an informational and contact platform, providing legal and psychological support services to victims and collaborating with businesses to ensure employee assistance. The organization positions itself as a specialized advocate for victims, with a clear focus on insurance claims and victim rights within Latvia and abroad. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using popular plugins such as WPBakery Page Builder and Revolution Slider. It employs standard web technologies including jQuery and integrates Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel for tracking. The site is mobile-optimized with a moderate performance profile and good SEO practices. However, some security best practices like DNSSEC and security headers are missing, and there is no cookie consent mechanism despite GDPR policy presence. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with a good SSL configuration but lacks advanced security headers and DNSSEC. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure policies are present. Contact information is clearly provided, enhancing trustworthiness. Overall, the site demonstrates a moderate security posture with room for improvement in compliance and technical safeguards. The overall risk assessment is moderate with no critical issues detected. Strategic recommendations include enabling DNSSEC, implementing security headers, adding a cookie consent mechanism, and maintaining regular updates to plugins and WordPress core to enhance security and compliance.

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

9 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. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

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

VPA operates in the non-profit sector focusing on victim protection and insurance claim assistance. Its market positioning is niche and specialized, targeting individuals affected by traffic accidents and related incidents, as well as businesses seeking to support their employees. The business model revolves around providing legal representation, consultation, and support services without commercial sales. Revenue streams are likely based on donations, grants, or service fees. The organization maintains partnerships with social and legal entities, as evidenced by partner logos and social media presence. Growth indicators include active content updates and multimedia testimonials. The partnership ecosystem includes social services and legal associations, enhancing credibility and outreach.

Security posture

The website exhibits a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and no sensitive data is exposed in the HTML content. However, the absence of DNSSEC and security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security posture. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which limits transparency in security management. The use of common tracking tools like Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel introduces moderate user tracking. GDPR compliance is partially addressed with a privacy policy but lacks cookie consent mechanisms. Overall, the security culture appears functional but could benefit from enhanced technical controls and documented policies.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to improve DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Add a cookie consent banner or mechanism to comply fully with GDPR requirements and enhance user privacy transparency.
  4. Maintain up-to-date WordPress core and plugins to reduce vulnerability exposure.
  5. Develop and publish incident response and vulnerability disclosure policies to improve security transparency and readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform with WPBakery Page Builder and Revolution Slider plugins, indicating a standard modern web infrastructure. It uses jQuery and integrates third-party services such as Google Fonts, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and JivoChat for live support. The site is mobile responsive and optimized for SEO with Yoast SEO plugin. Performance is moderate, with some custom CSS and JavaScript for UI enhancements. No advanced hosting or CDN details are evident. The absence of DNSSEC and security headers suggests some technical debt in security hardening. Overall, the infrastructure is typical for a small non-profit organization with opportunities for modernization and security improvements.
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.
