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

Tālmācības vidusskola VSK.LV is a Latvian private distance learning school offering education from grades 1 through 12 with state-recognized diplomas. The website presents a professional and well-structured platform targeting students and their parents, emphasizing accelerated learning, stress-free education, and personalized support. The school promotes free semester offers and provides multiple interactive forms for enrollment and inquiries, including Google sign-in options. The site integrates video testimonials from students and parents, enhancing trust and engagement. Technically, the website is built on Webflow CMS and employs modern web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. It uses multiple analytics and marketing tools such as Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Facebook Pixel, and TikTok Pixel, managed via Google Tag Manager. Cookie consent is managed through CookieYes, ensuring GDPR compliance with detailed cookie categories and user controls. The site is mobile-optimized and provides a good user experience with clear navigation and professional design. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and uses secure session cookies. However, explicit security headers like Content-Security-Policy are not detected, and no security.txt or vulnerability disclosure page is present. The privacy and cookie policies are comprehensive and accessible, indicating good privacy compliance. WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, limiting domain registration trust analysis. No WAF or content blocking mechanisms were detected, and the site content is safe and family-friendly. Overall, the website demonstrates a solid digital presence with good privacy and security practices, professional content, and effective user engagement. Recommendations include enhancing security headers, adding a vulnerability disclosure policy, and improving accessibility compliance to further strengthen the security posture and trustworthiness.

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.

Priority findings

6 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

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

Business profile

VSK.LV operates in the education sector as a private distance learning school in Latvia, targeting students from primary to secondary education levels. Its business model centers on online education with paid semesters and accelerated learning options. The school leverages digital marketing and analytics tools to optimize user engagement and conversion. The presence of state-recognized diplomas positions it competitively in the Latvian education market. The website's integration of testimonials and interactive content supports customer trust and retention. The company maintains active social media channels on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, enhancing its outreach. The lack of WHOIS data limits full verification of business legitimacy but the website content and contact information suggest a credible operation. Growth indicators include promotional offers and multiple enrollment forms, indicating active student acquisition efforts.

Security posture

The website maintains a good security baseline with enforced HTTPS and secure session management. Cookie consent is implemented with granular user controls, supporting GDPR compliance. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents a potential risk for clickjacking and content injection attacks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, which could hinder timely reporting and mitigation of security issues. The use of multiple third-party analytics and marketing scripts introduces a moderate tracking footprint and potential privacy concerns, though managed via consent. No exposed sensitive data or obvious vulnerabilities are detected in the HTML content. Overall, the security posture is adequate but could be improved by implementing additional HTTP security headers and establishing a formal vulnerability disclosure process.

Recommendations

  1. Implement a Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate cross-site scripting and injection attacks.
  2. Add a security.txt file to provide clear vulnerability disclosure and incident response contact information.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance with WCAG standards.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to minimize security risks.
  5. Consider adding additional security headers such as X-Frame-Options and X-Content-Type-Options.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Webflow CMS with a modern tech stack including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. It integrates multiple analytics and marketing tools managed through Google Tag Manager, including Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Facebook Pixel, and TikTok Pixel. Cookie consent is handled by CookieYes, providing a comprehensive consent management framework. The site is mobile-optimized and features interactive video content and multiple user forms with privacy consent checkboxes. Performance is moderate, with some videos preloaded and others lazy-loaded. The site uses standard web fonts and icons, and includes social media integration. No hosting provider information is explicitly found. The technical implementation is solid with room for improvement in security headers and accessibility compliance.
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.
