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

ART-IN-RES is a Czech-based online portal dedicated to connecting artists with providers of artistic residencies, facilitating creative stays essential for artistic project development. The platform targets artists primarily in the Czech Republic but also internationally, offering listings of residencies, open calls, and news updates. The business operates under Nová síť z.s., a Czech non-profit organization, and maintains a professional web presence with clear branding and consistent content quality. Technically, the website is built on WordPress using the Elementor page builder and Astra theme, integrating plugins for event management, GDPR compliance, and analytics. The site is mobile-optimized, SEO-friendly, and employs HTTPS with a cookie consent mechanism, reflecting a mature digital infrastructure suitable for its niche audience. From a security perspective, the site enforces HTTPS and cookie consent but lacks explicit security headers and detailed security policies. No vulnerabilities or WAF blocks were detected, indicating a secure baseline posture. Privacy compliance is evident through GDPR-aligned cookie and privacy policies. However, contact information is limited to a newsletter subscription form, with no direct emails or phone numbers provided. Overall, ART-IN-RES presents a trustworthy, well-maintained platform with a clear focus on artistic residencies. Strategic improvements in security headers, incident response transparency, and expanded contact options could enhance trust and compliance further.

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

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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';…

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

  3. 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.

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

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

ART-IN-RES occupies a niche market segment as a portal for artistic residencies, serving artists and residency providers. Its competitive advantage lies in its localized focus on the Czech Republic combined with international reach via bilingual content. The business model centers on providing curated listings and open calls, likely funded through grants and partnerships, as indicated by the EEA and Norway grants logo. The partnership ecosystem includes Nová síť z.s. and web development and grant organizations. Growth indicators include active content updates and event listings. The platform's operations emphasize cultural engagement and community building within the arts sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and GDPR cookie consent implemented. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the absence of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP), X-Frame-Options, and HSTS reduces the overall security posture. There is no visible incident response or vulnerability disclosure information, which could hinder rapid response to security incidents. Compliance with GDPR is evident but could be strengthened with more explicit data protection officer contact details and security policies. Overall, the security culture appears basic but functional for the site's scope.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Publish explicit security and incident response policies with contact channels for reporting issues.
  3. Add direct contact information such as company emails and phone numbers to improve transparency.
  4. Regularly audit and update all plugins and themes to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider establishing a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.

Technical notes

Notes

The website leverages a modern WordPress CMS with Elementor and Astra theme, providing a flexible and responsive design. Integration of plugins like Events Manager and Complianz GDPR ensures functional event handling and privacy compliance. Performance is moderate, with caching and minified CSS/JS assets observed. The site is mobile-optimized and includes accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels, though accessibility could be enhanced further. SEO is well addressed with Yoast SEO plugin and structured data (JSON-LD) for rich snippets. Hosting provider details are not explicit, but the site uses Google Analytics and CDN resources. Technical risks are minimal but include potential plugin vulnerabilities if not maintained.
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.
