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

Aktuality 24 is a Czech online news and media publication providing current news, finance, health, lifestyle, and other topical articles primarily targeting Czech-speaking internet users. The website operates on WordPress CMS with Elementor and several plugins, hosted likely via Wedos registrar with DNS managed by Cloudflare. The site features a professional design, good navigation, and moderate performance with mobile optimization. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enabled and no exposed sensitive data, but lacks advanced security headers and formal vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. Privacy compliance is weak due to absence of privacy and cookie policies and consent mechanisms. Overall, the site is legitimate, safe, and trustworthy but would benefit from enhanced privacy and security practices.

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

  2. 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

  3. 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

Aktuality 24 positions itself as a general news aggregator and publisher in the Czech media sector, founded in 2007. It offers a broad range of content categories including news, finance, health, and lifestyle, targeting a general audience interested in current events. The business model is based on content publication, likely monetized through advertising and affiliate links. The site uses Google Analytics and Tag Manager for user tracking and marketing insights. There is no evidence of partnerships or subsidiaries from the data provided. The website maintains consistent branding and content quality, supporting moderate market credibility.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic to moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced, and Cloudflare DNS is used, which provides some protection and performance benefits. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and others reduces defense-in-depth. No security.txt or vulnerability disclosure page is present, limiting transparency for security researchers. No contact information for incident response or data protection officers is found. The site does not expose sensitive data or use vulnerable libraries visibly. Overall, the security posture is acceptable but could be improved to meet higher compliance and protection standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with user consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Create and publish a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure and improve security transparency.
  4. Provide clear contact information for security incidents and data protection inquiries to strengthen incident response readiness.
  5. Regularly audit and update WordPress plugins and themes to mitigate risks from outdated or vulnerable components.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.2 with Elementor page builder and several plugins including Penci Review and Super RSS Reader. It uses jQuery and Google Fonts for frontend functionality and styling. Google Analytics and Tag Manager scripts are integrated for analytics and marketing. The site is hosted with DNS managed by Cloudflare and registered via Wedos since 2007, indicating stable infrastructure. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization. SEO is supported by meta tags, structured data (JSON-LD), and RSS feeds. Accessibility features are basic but present. There is room for improvement in security headers and privacy compliance to reduce technical debt and enhance user trust.
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.
