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

Bábolna.hu is the official municipal website of Bábolna city in Hungary, providing comprehensive information about the city's history, government, tourism, cultural life, and current events. The site targets residents, visitors, and stakeholders interested in local governance and community activities. It serves as a digital portal for municipal announcements, event information, and public resources, positioning itself as a trusted source of official city information. Technically, the website is built on the WordPress CMS platform, utilizing the Yoast SEO plugin for search engine optimization and Google Fonts for typography. The site demonstrates moderate performance with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. The use of HTTPS ensures secure communication, and structured data via JSON-LD enhances search engine understanding. However, no advanced frameworks or hosting details are evident from the HTML content. From a security perspective, the site benefits from HTTPS encryption and lacks visible vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data. However, it lacks visible security headers and does not provide privacy or cookie policies, which are critical for GDPR compliance. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is present, and contact details for security matters are absent. These gaps represent areas for improvement to enhance trust and compliance. Overall, the website is professional, trustworthy, and well-branded, but it would benefit from improved privacy compliance, explicit security policies, and enhanced transparency regarding data protection and incident handling to strengthen its security posture and regulatory adherence.

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. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • Critical

      Unable to retrieve SSL certificate

      Could not establish secure connection to retrieve certificate information

      What to do: Check if the server is accessible and SSL/TLS is properly configured

  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"

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

Bábolna.hu operates as a government information portal for the city of Bábolna, Hungary. Its market position is that of an official municipal website, providing authoritative content on local governance, tourism, and community events. The business model is non-commercial, focused on public service and information dissemination. Revenue streams are likely public funding rather than commercial sales. The target audience includes residents, tourists, local businesses, and government officials. The site shows growth indicators through multilingual support and EU partnership links, suggesting engagement in regional cooperation projects. The partnership ecosystem includes EU cross-border cooperation programs and local service providers such as the city bath and beach. Strategic observations highlight the importance of maintaining up-to-date content, enhancing digital services, and improving compliance to meet evolving regulatory requirements.

Security posture

The security maturity level of babolna.hu is moderate. The site employs HTTPS, ensuring encrypted data transmission, and avoids exposing sensitive information in its HTML content. However, the absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. The lack of privacy and cookie policies indicates non-compliance with GDPR requirements, which is a significant compliance gap. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms are evident, limiting the site's readiness to handle security incidents. The security culture appears basic, with no visible advanced security practices or certifications. Addressing these gaps would reduce risk exposure and improve trustworthiness.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy to comply with GDPR and inform users about data handling.
  2. Add a cookie consent mechanism to obtain user consent for tracking and comply with EU regulations.
  3. Deploy security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection.
  4. Establish and communicate an incident response policy with clear contact channels for security issues.
  5. Enhance transparency by providing contact information and security-related disclosures to build user trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on WordPress CMS, leveraging the Yoast SEO plugin for search optimization and Google Fonts for typography. The technical infrastructure is standard for municipal websites, with moderate performance and good mobile responsiveness. The site uses modern HTML5 and CSS3 standards but lacks advanced frameworks or custom backend technologies. No analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal user tracking. The site could benefit from improved accessibility features and performance optimizations. Hosting details are not disclosed, limiting assessment of infrastructure robustness. Overall, the technical implementation is solid but could be modernized with enhanced security and compliance features.
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.
