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

Adopce.com is a well-established non-profit website dedicated to supporting individuals interested in adoption and foster care within the Czech Republic. It operates in partnership with the Tereza Maxová Foundation and the Center for Adopting and Foster Care, providing comprehensive resources, guidance, and contact support to prospective adoptive and foster parents. The website is professionally designed, content-rich, and targets a general audience seeking trustworthy information on child welfare and substitute family care. Technically, the site is built on WordPress using modern plugins such as Breakdance, Yoast SEO Premium, and integrates Google Analytics and Tag Manager for visitor tracking. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization, accessibility, and SEO practices, although performance is moderate. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and secure forms, but lacks visible security headers and formal security policies. From a security and compliance perspective, the absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises transparency concerns, although the website content and partner associations support legitimacy. No privacy or cookie policies were detected, which may impact GDPR compliance. There is no evidence of vulnerability disclosure or incident response information, suggesting room for improvement in security governance. Overall, Adopce.com presents a trustworthy and professional resource for adoption and foster care information, but should enhance transparency, privacy compliance, and security practices to strengthen its risk posture 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

12 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
  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';…
  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

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 · found on this site
  • 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

Adopce.com occupies a niche non-profit sector focused on child welfare through adoption and foster care in the Czech Republic. Its competitive advantage lies in its long-standing presence since 2000 and strong partnerships with reputable organizations like the Tereza Maxová Foundation. The business model centers on providing free informational resources and support rather than commercial services. Revenue streams are likely grant or donation-based, typical for non-profits. The target customer segment includes prospective adoptive and foster parents, social workers, and child welfare advocates. Growth indicators include updated content and active partnerships. The partnership ecosystem includes foundations and NGOs, enhancing credibility and reach. Strategic observations suggest focusing on improving digital transparency and compliance to maintain donor and user confidence.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and secure form handling. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security reduces defense-in-depth. The absence of a security.txt file or published incident response contacts indicates limited preparedness for vulnerability disclosure and incident management. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected, which is positive. Compliance gaps exist due to missing privacy and cookie policies, potentially impacting GDPR adherence. Overall, the security culture appears basic but functional, with opportunities to formalize policies and improve technical controls to reduce risk.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to enhance GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to improve site security.
  3. Create and maintain a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure and improve incident response readiness.
  4. Verify and publish domain WHOIS information or ensure transparency regarding domain registration to build trust.
  5. Regularly review and update security practices and compliance documentation to strengthen overall security posture and user confidence.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress with the Breakdance plugin for page building, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as Swiper.js for sliders and GSAP for animations. SEO is enhanced via Yoast SEO Premium. Google Analytics and Tag Manager are integrated for analytics and marketing. The site uses responsive design with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. Performance is moderate, likely due to large images and multiple CSS/JS assets. There is no explicit hosting provider identified. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and privacy compliance are recommended. The infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly experience but could benefit from optimization and enhanced security controls.
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.
