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

Městská část Brno-jih is the official municipal district government website serving the Brno-jih area in the Czech Republic. It provides comprehensive information about local government administration, public services, news, events, and contact details for residents and visitors. The website is well-structured, professionally designed, and offers multilingual support, targeting local citizens and stakeholders. The business model is governmental public service with a focus on transparency and community engagement. Technically, the site is built on the Liferay CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and GLightbox, and features a responsive design optimized for mobile devices. Analytics are handled via Matomo with privacy-conscious configurations, including Do Not Track and cookie disabling. The site demonstrates good accessibility and SEO practices, although some improvements in security headers and explicit privacy policies are recommended. From a security perspective, the website enforces HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data. However, the absence of security headers and explicit privacy and cookie policies indicates room for enhancement. The WHOIS data is unavailable, which limits domain registration trust analysis, but the official branding and contact information strongly support legitimacy. Overall, the site maintains a good security posture with moderate risk. Strategically, the website should focus on publishing clear privacy and cookie policies, implementing security headers, and improving transparency around incident response and data protection officers. These steps will enhance user trust and compliance with GDPR and other regulations. The domain registration information should be clarified to improve trustworthiness from a domain perspective.

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.

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

Městská část Brno-jih holds a stable position as a local government authority within the Czech Republic, serving the Brno-jih district. Its competitive advantage lies in providing transparent, accessible public services and community information through a well-maintained digital platform. The business model is non-commercial, focused on public administration and citizen engagement. Revenue streams are typical of municipal governments, likely funded by public budgets. The target customer segments include residents, local businesses, and visitors. Growth indicators include active event promotion and partnerships with regional institutions. The partnership ecosystem includes local libraries, regional government, and cultural sites, enhancing community integration. Operationally, the website reflects a mature digital presence with ongoing content updates and user engagement features.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is enforced site-wide, and privacy-respecting analytics are used. No sensitive data leaks or vulnerable libraries were detected in the analyzed content. However, the lack of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces defense-in-depth. There is no visible security or incident response policy, nor contact channels for security issues, indicating gaps in compliance and readiness. GDPR compliance is partially indicated by the use of Matomo with Do Not Track, but explicit privacy and cookie policies are missing. The security culture appears basic but functional, with room for improvement in transparency and technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Publish comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit user consent mechanisms.
  2. Implement security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Establish and publicize a security policy and incident response contact information.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Clarify domain registration information to improve trust and legitimacy perception.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Liferay CMS platform, leveraging modern JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 3.6.0 and GLightbox for UI components. It uses the Splide carousel for hero banners and Matomo for analytics with privacy-focused settings. The site is mobile responsive and includes accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA labels. Performance is moderate, with combined and minified CSS and JS assets. There is no evidence of a CDN or advanced hosting provider information. The technical debt appears low, but the absence of security headers and explicit privacy mechanisms suggests areas for modernization and compliance improvements. Overall, the infrastructure supports a stable and user-friendly experience but could benefit from enhanced security and privacy technical controls.
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.
