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

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 company operates in the energy and real estate sectors, specifically in natural resource extraction and management. It is a large, state-owned entity with a strong market position in Latvia. The business model revolves around sustainable resource management, offering mineral materials, laboratory services, and site rentals. The website content and structure indicate a focus on B2B and governmental clients, with detailed information on extraction sites and sales specialists. The absence of social media links suggests a traditional business approach. The use of Matomo analytics reflects a preference for privacy-conscious tracking. The company appears stable and well-established, with consistent WHOIS data supporting legitimacy.

Security posture

The website enforces HTTPS and implements a cookie consent banner, indicating compliance with basic privacy regulations. However, it lacks visible security headers such as Content Security Policy or HSTS, which could improve protection against common web attacks. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The absence of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency in security management. Overall, the security posture is moderate, suitable for a public informational site but with room for improvement to meet higher security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  2. Publish explicit security and incident response policies on the website to enhance transparency and trust.
  3. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance with standards and user experience.
  4. Consider adding a terms of service page and a vulnerability disclosure policy to cover legal and security aspects.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Joomla CMS with jQuery 3.6.3 and Slick Carousel for UI components, indicating a moderately modern tech stack. Matomo analytics is used for privacy-respecting user tracking. The site loads external fonts from Google Fonts and scripts from the domain and trusted sources. Performance is moderate with asynchronous loading of analytics scripts. Mobile optimization is good with responsive meta tags and scalable UI elements. SEO is basic with proper meta charset and viewport tags but lacks advanced structured data or Open Graph metadata. No major technical debt or errors were detected in the HTML content.
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.
