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

The website www.boskovice.cz serves as the official digital presence of the city of Boskovice, Czech Republic. It provides comprehensive information about municipal governance, local news, projects, community services, and cultural events. The site targets residents, visitors, and stakeholders interested in city affairs and local development. It functions as a government portal offering transparency and engagement through features like newsletters, social media integration, and citizen participation projects such as BoskoVize. Technically, the site is built on the Vismo CMS platform, utilizing modern web technologies including Vue.js, Mustache.js, Google reCAPTCHA v3, and Google Tag Manager. The site is mobile-optimized, accessible, and employs HTTPS with a good SSL configuration. Cookie consent and privacy policies are implemented, reflecting compliance with GDPR requirements. From a security perspective, the site demonstrates good practices such as HTTPS enforcement and use of CAPTCHA for forms. However, it lacks explicit security headers and a published security policy or incident response contact. No vulnerabilities or suspicious content were detected. WHOIS data is unavailable, likely due to registry privacy policies, but the site’s official nature and content strongly support its legitimacy. Overall, the website is a well-maintained, trustworthy municipal portal with solid content quality and technical implementation. Strategic improvements in security headers and transparency around security policies could further enhance its posture.

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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

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

    • High

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

Boskovice’s official website positions the city as a transparent and engaged local government entity. The site’s business model is public service and information dissemination, targeting local citizens and visitors. It leverages partnerships with local institutions such as schools, cultural centers, and social services, enhancing community integration. The presence of a citizen participation platform indicates a forward-looking governance approach. The site’s content and structure support effective communication and civic engagement, reinforcing Boskovice’s market position as a responsive municipality. Revenue streams are not applicable as it is a government site. Growth indicators include active event promotion and project updates. The partnership ecosystem is robust with local organizations and regional services.

Security posture

The website exhibits a mature security posture with mandatory HTTPS and integration of Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect forms from abuse. Cookie consent mechanisms align with GDPR compliance. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options represents an area for improvement. No security.txt or incident response contacts are published, limiting transparency for vulnerability reporting. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Overall, the site is secure for its purpose but could benefit from enhanced security header implementation and formalized vulnerability disclosure processes.

Recommendations

  1. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a security policy page and provide clear incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Add a security.txt file to facilitate responsible vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.
  5. Enhance monitoring and logging to detect and respond to potential security incidents promptly.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and modular technology stack centered on the Vismo CMS platform, with client-side frameworks like Vue.js and Mustache.js for dynamic content rendering. Google services such as reCAPTCHA and Tag Manager are integrated for security and analytics. The site is mobile responsive and optimized for accessibility, with structured navigation and semantic HTML. Performance is moderate, with potential for improvement through optimization of assets and caching. The absence of explicit hosting provider information limits full infrastructure assessment. Overall, the technical implementation supports a stable and user-friendly experience with room for security and performance enhancements.
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.
