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

The website 2050.brno.cz serves as the official strategic planning portal for the city of Brno, Czech Republic. It provides comprehensive information about the city's long-term development strategy across multiple thematic areas such as environment, prosperity, services, resources, and governance. The site targets residents, stakeholders, and interested parties in urban development and municipal governance. Technically, the site is built on the Liferay CMS platform, utilizing modern JavaScript libraries including jQuery, React, and ClayUI, and employs Matomo analytics configured to respect user privacy by disabling cookies and honoring Do Not Track settings. Security posture is generally good with HTTPS enforced, but lacks explicit security headers and visible privacy or cookie policies. The absence of WHOIS data from the CZ NIC registry reduces domain trustworthiness, though the official branding and content quality support legitimacy. Overall, the site is professional, accessible, and well-structured, but could improve transparency around privacy and security policies.

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.

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

Brno 2050 is positioned as a key municipal initiative to guide the city's sustainable growth and development. The business model is public sector-driven, focusing on strategic communication and stakeholder engagement rather than commercial revenue. The site supports the city's role as a regional government entity, emphasizing innovation, urban planning, and community involvement. The lack of direct contact information or business registration details is typical for government portals. The partnership ecosystem includes the main city website (brno.cz) and data visualization services (infogram.com). Growth indicators include active content updates and integration of modern web technologies. Strategic observations highlight the importance of digital transparency and enhanced privacy compliance to strengthen public trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to good security maturity level. HTTPS is properly implemented, and analytics are configured to minimize privacy risks. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy represents a gap in defense-in-depth. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the analyzed content. There is no visible incident response or security policy documentation, which could hinder rapid response to security events. Compliance with GDPR is implied but not explicitly documented, and no vulnerability disclosure or security.txt files were found. The security culture appears basic, with room for improvement in transparency and formalized security practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publicly display comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with user consent mechanisms.
  2. Add explicit security headers (Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy) to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party libraries to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider registering WHOIS data publicly or providing justification for privacy protection to improve domain trustworthiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a robust CMS platform (Liferay) with a modern technology stack including React and jQuery. It uses Matomo for privacy-conscious analytics and includes responsive design and accessibility features. Performance is moderate, with combined and minified JavaScript and CSS resources. The site supports multiple languages and uses canonical and hreflang tags for SEO optimization. There is no evidence of hosting provider details or CDN usage beyond the primary domain. Technical risks include missing security headers and incomplete privacy disclosures, which could affect compliance and security posture. Opportunities exist to enhance performance and security through best practices and transparency.
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.
