Risk levelMedium

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

Balkan Pensiony is a small hospitality business offering accommodation services in Bulgaria, specifically in the Bansko and Primorsko regions. The website presents two main pensions, Atika and Nadia, targeting tourists seeking winter and summer vacation stays. The business model focuses on direct accommodation bookings with a clear regional niche. The website is built on Joomla CMS with a moderate technical infrastructure including Bootstrap, jQuery, and social media integration via Facebook SDK. Google Analytics is used for visitor tracking. Security posture is basic with HTTPS enabled but lacking security headers and privacy policies, which are critical for GDPR compliance. The absence of WHOIS data reduces domain trustworthiness, though the website content and contact phone number appear legitimate. Overall, the site is functional and professionally designed but requires improvements in privacy compliance and security best practices to enhance trust 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

7 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

    • 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

  2. 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 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
  • 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 company operates in the hospitality sector, focusing on vacation rentals in Bulgaria. Its market position is niche, catering to Czech-speaking tourists interested in Bulgarian mountain and seaside pensions. The business leverages direct bookings and social media presence for customer engagement. The website's partnership with PMH and Web7.cz indicates collaboration with local web development and hosting providers. Revenue streams likely come from accommodation bookings. Growth potential depends on expanding online presence and improving compliance. The lack of detailed company registration or VAT information limits deeper business intelligence insights.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security posture with HTTPS enabled, which is mandatory. However, it lacks important security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options, which help mitigate common web attacks. No forms or input fields were detected, reducing attack surface, but absence of privacy and cookie policies indicates compliance gaps with GDPR. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, limiting transparency. The use of third-party scripts like Google Analytics and Facebook SDK introduces moderate tracking but no evident vulnerabilities. Overall, security maturity is low to moderate, with room for significant improvement.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR and inform users about data collection.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web vulnerabilities.
  3. Publish a security.txt file or vulnerability disclosure policy to improve transparency and incident response readiness.
  4. Regularly update Joomla CMS and all plugins to mitigate risks from known vulnerabilities.
  5. Enhance accessibility features and SEO optimization to improve user experience and search engine ranking.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses Joomla CMS with Bootstrap framework and jQuery libraries, indicating a standard but somewhat dated technology stack. Performance is moderate with responsive design and mobile optimization present. The site includes multiple CSS and JS files, including third-party plugins for carousels and menus. Google Fonts and Font Awesome are used for typography and icons. Analytics and social media integration are implemented via Google Analytics and Facebook SDK. No advanced modern frameworks or headless CMS detected. Hosting provider details are not available. The site lacks structured data markup (JSON-LD) and Open Graph metadata, which could improve SEO and social sharing. Overall, the technical implementation is functional but could benefit from modernization and optimization.
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.
