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

The website www.mo.gov.cz is the official online presence of the Ministry of Defense of the Czech Republic, serving as a government portal for defense-related information, military news, and public services. It targets a broad audience including the general public, military personnel, and government officials. The site provides key services such as defense policy communication, military mission updates, recruitment information, and public contact channels. The domain and content strongly indicate a legitimate government entity with a significant national role. Technically, the website employs a modern technology stack including jQuery, Bootstrap, Owl Carousel, and JWPlayer, managed via the WebToDate CMS by Macron Software. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and includes accessibility features, though these could be improved. Performance is moderate, and SEO practices are good with proper meta tags and structured navigation. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and implements a GDPR-compliant cookie consent mechanism with opt-in functionality. However, no explicit security headers were detected in the provided data, and there is no visible security policy or incident response contact information. The WHOIS data is unavailable, which is unusual but may be due to registry policies for government domains. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were found in the analysis. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and compliant with privacy regulations, but could enhance its security posture by adding security headers, publishing a security policy, and providing incident response contacts. The lack of WHOIS data does not detract significantly from trust given the official nature of the domain and content.

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

5 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

    • 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 Ministry of Defense of the Czech Republic operates as a key government entity responsible for national defense and military affairs. Its market position is authoritative and essential within the government sector. The business model is non-commercial, focused on public service and national security. Revenue streams are government-funded. The target customer segments include citizens, military personnel, and international partners. Growth indicators are not applicable in a commercial sense but the site reflects ongoing updates and active communication. The partnership ecosystem includes related military and government domains such as mocr.mo.gov.cz and acr.mo.gov.cz. Strategic observations highlight a well-maintained digital presence aligned with government transparency and public engagement objectives.

Security posture

The security maturity of the website is moderate. HTTPS is enforced, and GDPR-compliant cookie consent is implemented with opt-in and revocation capabilities, indicating good privacy practices. However, the absence of visible HTTP security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is published, which limits transparency in security management. The WHOIS data is not publicly available, which is atypical but may be justified by registry policies for government domains. No known vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected. Overall, the site demonstrates a baseline security posture suitable for a government site but should enhance its defenses and transparency to meet higher standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and provide dedicated incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to meet higher standards and improve usability for all users.
  5. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and scripts to prevent vulnerabilities from outdated components.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a CMS platform called WebToDate by Macron Software, utilizing popular frontend libraries such as jQuery, Bootstrap, and Owl Carousel for UI components and responsiveness. Media content is managed with JWPlayer and lightgallery plugins. The site includes a cookie consent mechanism compliant with GDPR, implemented via cookieconsent.js. Performance is moderate with autoplay carousels and multiple images, which may impact load times. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive CSS grids and conditional IE support. No hosting provider information was detected. Technical debt appears low, but improvements in security headers and accessibility could modernize the infrastructure further. SEO is supported by meta tags and structured navigation, contributing to good search engine visibility.
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.
