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

  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

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

AKA holds a leading position as the primary association for communication agencies in the Czech Republic. Its business model revolves around providing value-added services such as industry certifications, educational programs, legal advisory, and organizing industry awards. The association's revenue streams likely include membership fees, event sponsorships, and educational services. The target customers are communication agencies, marketing professionals, and public sector entities seeking industry standards and networking opportunities. The partnership ecosystem includes recognized organizations and government bodies, enhancing its market influence. Growth indicators include recent new members and active projects. The website's professional content and partnerships reflect a stable and reputable operation within the media and non-profit sectors.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enforced and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. The absence of exposed sensitive data and use of reputable third-party services like Google Tag Manager indicate good security hygiene. However, the lack of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No incident response or security policy pages were found, which could be enhanced to improve transparency and readiness. Overall, the security maturity is good for a non-profit association website, with recommendations to strengthen header policies and monitor third-party dependencies.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response information to enhance transparency and preparedness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and plugins to prevent vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance monitoring and logging mechanisms to detect and respond to security incidents promptly.
  5. Maintain up-to-date privacy and cookie policies reflecting evolving regulations and best practices.

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.
