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

WKND is a Latvian creative agency specializing in marketing, advertising, branding, and strategic services. The company emphasizes client growth stories over traditional agency case studies, positioning itself as a client-centric creative partner. The website showcases a portfolio of projects for notable Latvian clients, indicating a solid market presence within the local media and advertising sector. Technically, the site is built on modern web technologies including React and Gatsby, ensuring a responsive and visually appealing user experience. However, some areas such as accessibility and security headers could be improved. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enabled, but the absence of security headers and explicit privacy and cookie policies indicates room for enhancement. The lack of WHOIS data limits full domain legitimacy verification, but the professional branding and consistent social media presence support the site's credibility. Overall, WKND presents as a professional small-sized agency with a focused service offering in the Latvian market.

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. 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

      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

  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

WKND operates as a creative agency targeting businesses seeking strategic marketing and advertising services. Their portfolio includes campaigns for well-known Latvian brands, suggesting strong local market positioning and client trust. The business model revolves around delivering creative content, advertising, and brand identity solutions. The company leverages social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram for brand engagement. The website's content and design reflect a professional approach, supporting business credibility. No evidence of parent or subsidiary companies was found. The agency appears to maintain a focused niche within the media sector, with growth potential tied to expanding client base and digital marketing trends.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS, which is a fundamental security measure. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No forms or input fields were detected, minimizing attack surface from user input vulnerabilities. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were identified in the provided content. The lack of a security.txt file or incident response contact information suggests limited preparedness for vulnerability disclosure or incident handling. Privacy compliance is minimal, with no visible privacy or cookie policies, which may pose regulatory risks under GDPR. Overall, the security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing recommended headers, policies, and incident response mechanisms.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with clear GDPR compliance and consent mechanisms.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Create and publish a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve incident response readiness.
  4. Include explicit incident response contact channels such as security@ or abuse@ email addresses.
  5. Enhance website accessibility features to improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using React and Gatsby, indicating a modern, component-based architecture optimized for performance and SEO. The use of Gatsby suggests static site generation, which can improve loading times and security. The site includes responsive images and video content, enhancing visual engagement. Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are used for tracking and analytics, reflecting standard marketing practices. No CMS was detected, implying a custom or static content management approach. Performance is moderate, with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility. The absence of detected hosting provider information limits infrastructure insights. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could benefit from enhanced security and privacy features.
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.
