Risk levelMedium

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

Město Benátky nad Jizerou operates an official municipal website serving residents and visitors with comprehensive information about city services, news, events, and public notices. The website is well-structured, featuring detailed navigation and content relevant to local governance and community engagement. Technically, the site employs modern frontend technologies including jQuery, Bootstrap, and Swiper, along with an AI chatbot integration, indicating a moderate level of digital maturity. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS enforced and privacy compliance evident through GDPR and cookie consent implementations, though improvements are recommended in security headers and incident response transparency. The absence of WHOIS data introduces some uncertainty regarding domain legitimacy, but the website content and official branding strongly support its authenticity as a government portal.

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

  2. Security headers

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

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 website positions itself as the authoritative digital presence for the city of Benátky nad Jizerou, targeting local residents and visitors seeking municipal information. Its business model is that of a government service portal, providing transparency, communication, and access to public resources. The site links to several partner domains related to local services and tourism, enhancing its ecosystem. The content and services suggest a small-sized municipal operation with a focus on community engagement and public administration. Growth indicators include active event calendars and digital service offerings such as online catalogs and interactive maps.

Security posture

The security maturity level is moderate, with HTTPS usage and privacy compliance mechanisms in place. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content Security Policy, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options reduces the overall security robustness. No explicit incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which could hinder rapid mitigation of security incidents. The integration of third-party scripts, including an AI chatbot, necessitates ongoing security assessments to prevent potential vulnerabilities. Overall, the site demonstrates a baseline security posture suitable for a government informational site but would benefit from enhanced security controls and transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive HTTP security headers including CSP, HSTS, and X-Frame-Options to strengthen defense against common web attacks.
  2. Establish and publish an incident response policy and contact channels to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries and integrations, especially the AI chatbot, to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all visitors.
  5. Verify and update WHOIS registration details to improve domain legitimacy and trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a combination of jQuery, Bootstrap 4, Swiper, and Photoswipe for UI components and interactivity, indicating a reliance on established frontend libraries. The CMS appears to be a custom or less common system (inferred from 'benatky_lego' skin). Performance is moderate with responsive design for mobile devices. SEO is supported by proper meta tags and structured navigation. However, the site lacks advanced performance optimizations and accessibility features. Hosting provider details are not evident from the content. The integration of an AI chatbot from Botpress cloud adds modern interactive capability but requires security oversight.
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.
