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

APAČ is a Czech Republic based association representing laundries, dry cleaners, and their suppliers. Established in 2001, it serves as a national industry body providing certification, education, events, and a marketplace for used equipment. The website reflects a professional and consistent brand presence with a clear focus on industry members and stakeholders. Technically, the site is built on WordPress with modern plugins for SEO, multilingual support, and membership management. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and cookie consent implemented, though privacy policy and incident response contacts are missing. Overall, the site is trustworthy and well-positioned within its niche, but could improve compliance and security transparency.

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. 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

  4. 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"

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

APAČ holds a strong market position as the primary association for laundries and dry cleaners in the Czech Republic, with 87 members and thousands of employees represented. Its business model revolves around membership services, certification, education, and industry events, generating significant annual economic impact. The association maintains partnerships with several industry brands, enhancing its ecosystem. The website content and structure support member engagement and industry promotion, indicating a mature and stable organization with growth potential.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and standard security practices such as nonce tokens for AJAX and cookie consent mechanisms. However, it lacks explicit privacy policies, terms of service, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms, which are critical for GDPR compliance and incident management. Security headers beyond HTTPS are not clearly present. No direct contact for security incidents is provided, which may delay response to potential threats. Overall, the security posture is moderate but requires enhancements to meet best practices and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a detailed privacy policy and terms of service to improve compliance and user trust.
  2. Implement a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to facilitate responsible reporting.
  3. Add explicit contact information for security incidents and data protection officer if applicable.
  4. Enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  5. Regularly review and update third-party plugins and scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS using a combination of popular plugins including Yoast SEO, WPBakery Page Builder, WPML for multilingual support, and membership management tools. It uses jQuery and Google Analytics for tracking. The hosting is provided by Wedos, a Czech hosting provider, consistent with the domain registration. The site is mobile optimized and uses structured data (JSON-LD) for SEO. Performance is moderate, with some minified CSS and JS caching. There is room for improvement in accessibility and security header implementation.
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.
