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

The website casopiskbm.cz serves as the official online platform for the medical journal 'Klinická biochemie a metabolismus', published by the Czech Medical Society J. E. Purkyně in cooperation with STAPRO s.r.o. The journal focuses on clinical biochemistry, metabolism, and related medical fields, targeting healthcare professionals and researchers. The site provides access to current and archival issues, manuscript submission, and editorial information, positioning itself as a niche but reputable scientific publication with a legacy dating back to 1971. Technically, the website is built on the Actavia engine CMS and employs legacy JavaScript libraries such as jQuery 1.12.4, along with modern utilities like Headroom.js and Modernizr. Hosting is provided by WEDOS, a Czech registrar and hosting provider. The site demonstrates moderate performance and basic mobile optimization but lacks advanced accessibility and SEO features. The presence of Google Analytics indicates moderate user tracking without visible cookie consent mechanisms. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS and avoids exposing sensitive data in its HTML content. However, it lacks modern security headers and uses outdated JavaScript libraries, which could pose vulnerabilities. No explicit privacy or cookie policies are present, and GDPR compliance is not clearly demonstrated. The WHOIS data aligns well with the website's claims, showing consistent registration and no privacy protection, which supports legitimacy. Overall, the site is a credible and professional medical journal platform with room for improvement in security practices, privacy compliance, and technical modernization. Strategic enhancements in these areas would strengthen trust and user protection.

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

    • 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

  2. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

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

Casopiskbm.cz operates as a specialized scientific journal platform serving the Czech healthcare sector, particularly clinical biochemistry and metabolism. Its competitive advantage lies in its long-standing publication history and affiliation with reputable medical societies. The business model centers on electronic journal publishing, archival access, and manuscript submissions. Revenue streams likely include subscriptions, advertising, and institutional support. The target audience comprises medical professionals, researchers, and academics. Partnerships with organizations like the Czech Medical Society and Actavia enhance operational capabilities. Growth indicators include the transition to exclusive electronic publishing starting 2023. The company maintains a focused niche presence with consistent branding and trust signals such as ISSN registration and editorial transparency.

Security posture

The website exhibits a moderate security maturity level. HTTPS is implemented, ensuring encrypted communications. However, the use of outdated JavaScript libraries like jQuery 1.12.4 introduces potential vulnerabilities. The absence of security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options reduces protection against common web attacks. No explicit security or incident response policies are published, and no dedicated security contact channels are provided. GDPR compliance is not clearly addressed, and cookie consent mechanisms are missing despite the use of Google Analytics. These gaps suggest limited data protection practices and incident readiness. The overall security posture would benefit from modernization of libraries, implementation of security headers, and transparent privacy and security policies.

Recommendations

  1. Update all JavaScript libraries, especially jQuery, to the latest secure versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
  2. Implement comprehensive privacy and cookie policies with explicit GDPR compliance statements and a user consent mechanism.
  3. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against web attacks.
  4. Establish and publish an incident response policy and provide dedicated security contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ emails).
  5. Improve mobile optimization and accessibility features to enhance user experience and compliance with modern web standards.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is powered by the Actavia engine CMS and relies on legacy JavaScript libraries including jQuery 1.12.4, Modernizr, Headroom.js, and Colorbox. It uses Google Fonts and Google Tag Manager for typography and analytics. Hosting is managed by WEDOS, a Czech provider. The site demonstrates moderate performance with basic mobile responsiveness and accessibility. SEO optimization is basic, with meta tags and Open Graph data present but minimal keyword and description content. The technical stack shows some technical debt due to outdated libraries and lack of modern security headers. Opportunities exist to modernize the tech stack, improve performance, and enhance security configurations to reduce operational risks.
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.
