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. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • High

      No SPF record found

      SPF helps prevent email spoofing

      What to do: Add SPF record: "v=spf1 include:_spf.yourmailprovider.com ~all"

    • High

      No DMARC record found

      DMARC provides email authentication and reporting

      What to do: Add DMARC record: "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:dmarc@yourdomain.com"

  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      SSL Certificate Expires Soon

      SSL certificate expires in 20 days

      What to do: Renew SSL certificate before expiration

      • NIS2 21(2)(h)
      • IR 2024/2690 9.2(c): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 9.2(c): Cryptography
      • NIST SC-17: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-17: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates

  3. DNS health

    DNS sends visitors and email to the right servers. Misconfigured records can cause outages or let someone redirect your traffic.

    • High

      Weak SPF Policy

      SPF record has permissive policy allowing any server to send email

      What to do: Use -all or ~all qualifier for better email security

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 brewery holds a significant position in the Czech beer market as a national brand with extensive export reach. Their business model focuses on manufacturing premium beer products, collaborating with microbreweries for limited editions, and offering brewery tours. The company leverages digital channels effectively for marketing and customer engagement, including social media and content marketing. The absence of direct contact information on the website suggests a preference for controlled communication channels, possibly centralized through other means. The partnership with job portals indicates active recruitment and growth. The brand's longevity and awards contribute to a strong market reputation and trust.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a solid security foundation with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive cookie consent management via Cookiebot, and use of security headers such as HSTS and CSP. No critical vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. However, the lack of a publicly available security policy, incident response information, or vulnerability disclosure program limits transparency and readiness perception. The extensive use of third-party analytics and advertising networks introduces tracking but is managed with user consent. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be enhanced by publishing formal security documentation and contact points for security issues.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security frameworks and practices.
  2. Provide clear incident response contact information to improve transparency and trust.
  3. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file.
  4. Enhance visibility of company contact details for general and security inquiries.
  5. Regularly review third-party scripts and cookies to minimize privacy risks and improve compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using Webflow CMS, leveraging jQuery, Swiper.js for UI components, and Typekit for fonts. It integrates Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing, alongside Cookiebot for cookie consent management. Hosting appears to be via Cloudflare, providing CDN and security benefits. The site is well-optimized for performance and mobile devices, with responsive design and accessibility considerations. SEO is supported by proper meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. The technical stack is modern and well-maintained, with no visible technical debt or deprecated libraries. Opportunities exist to enhance security documentation and incident response readiness.
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.
