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

ACK.Travel is the official website of Asociace cestovních kanceláří ČR, the Association of Travel Agencies of the Czech Republic. The site serves as an information hub for travelers and travel agencies, providing news, FAQs, and country-specific travel information primarily in Czech language. The business operates as a non-profit association focused on supporting the travel industry within the Czech Republic. Technically, the website uses a traditional web stack including jQuery, AmCharts for interactive maps, and Matomo for analytics, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. The site is accessible without WAF or blocking mechanisms, but lacks modern security headers and visible privacy or cookie policies, which are important for GDPR compliance. The absence of WHOIS data limits domain trust verification, but the website content and branding suggest a legitimate and established organization. Overall, the site is functional and professional but would benefit from enhanced security and privacy compliance measures.

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

8 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  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';…

  3. 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

The association holds a recognized position within the Czech travel industry, targeting both consumers and travel professionals. Its business model is based on providing informational services, industry updates, and member support rather than direct commercial transactions. The website content includes travel news, regulatory updates, and travel advice, indicating a focus on education and industry advocacy. The presence of links to official Czech travel organizations and consistent branding supports its credibility. The use of Matomo analytics suggests a preference for privacy-conscious tracking. No direct revenue streams or commercial partnerships are evident from the content provided. The organization appears medium-sized with a national focus and no visible subsidiaries or parent companies.

Security posture

The website currently exhibits a basic security posture. HTTPS is presumably enabled (inferred from URL scheme), but no explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, or X-Content-Type-Options were detected in the provided data. There is no evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries, but the lack of security policies and incident response contacts is a gap. The site uses standard JavaScript libraries without known vulnerabilities in the versions referenced. The absence of a security.txt or vulnerability disclosure page limits transparency. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, with recommendations to implement security headers, privacy policies, and incident response mechanisms to improve trust and compliance.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance and inform users about data collection.
  2. Add standard security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish incident response and vulnerability disclosure information, including security contact emails, to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Verify and publish WHOIS domain registration details or use a registrar with public WHOIS to improve domain trustworthiness.
  5. Improve mobile optimization and accessibility features to enhance user experience across devices and for users with disabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a classic web technology stack with jQuery and jQuery UI for UI components, AmCharts for interactive maps, and Matomo for analytics tracking. The presence of Highslide JS and TinyMCE media plugins indicates a focus on interactive content and media embedding. The site loads multiple CSS stylesheets and JavaScript files, suggesting a modular design. Performance appears moderate with no explicit indicators of slow loading, but mobile optimization is basic. No modern frontend frameworks or CMS platforms were detected. Hosting provider details are not available from the data. The site structure and navigation are clear and consistent, supporting good SEO practices. Opportunities exist to modernize the tech stack and improve performance and accessibility.
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.
