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

24ct.cz is a Czech language online media platform founded in 2019, offering news, advice, and lifestyle content across various categories such as automotive, finance, health, and housing. The website targets Czech-speaking audiences interested in opinionated and informative articles. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with a modern plugin ecosystem and uses HTTPS, ensuring basic security and performance standards. However, it lacks visible privacy and cookie policies, security headers, and explicit contact information, which are important for compliance and trust. The site demonstrates good content quality and user experience but could improve its security posture and privacy compliance to enhance credibility and user trust.

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

11 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

  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 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';…

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 website operates as a small-scale media outlet focusing on content publishing and advertising revenue. Its market position is niche within the Czech Republic, targeting general consumers seeking news and lifestyle advice. The business model relies on content engagement and partnerships, as indicated by external links to related domains. The absence of detailed business and contact information limits transparency. Growth potential exists through improved compliance and expanded content offerings.

Security posture

The security maturity of 24ct.cz is moderate. HTTPS is enforced, and external links are configured to open safely. However, the absence of security headers such as CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No vulnerability disclosure or incident response information is provided, which is a gap in security readiness. The site should implement security best practices and publish relevant policies to improve its security culture and compliance with GDPR and other regulations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with GDPR compliance details.
  2. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and incident reporting.
  4. Provide clear contact information including company emails and phone numbers for user support and security incidents.
  5. Regularly audit and update plugins and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities and improve performance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses WordPress 6.8.3 with multiple plugins for content management, newsletter, and RSS feeds. It loads Google Fonts and jQuery libraries, and integrates Google Site Kit for analytics. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and uses modern CSS and JavaScript techniques. Performance is moderate with room for optimization. The lack of advanced accessibility features and security headers indicates technical debt that should be addressed to enhance robustness and 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.
