Their market position is that of an important environmental coalition within the Czech Republic with a network of 18 projects worldwide. The website serves as a platform for information dissemination, project promotion, and community engagement, targeting schools, environmentalists, and the general public interested in biodiversity and sustainability.

The technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly experience. From a security perspective, the site uses HTTPS with a good SSL configuration and implements cookie consent mechanisms compliant with GDPR.

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

4 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. 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 X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • 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

  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

  4. Network security

    Services reachable from the internet are the first thing attackers probe. Anything open that does not need to be should be closed.

    • High

      High-Risk Service Exposed: FTP

      Port 21 (FTP) is publicly accessible - FTP - Often unencrypted file transfer

      What to do: Consider restricting access to FTP or implementing strong authentication

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network 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

CCBC operates as a non-profit coalition uniting multiple environmental projects focused on biodiversity protection. Its competitive advantage lies in its international project network and educational outreach, including workshops and campaigns like 'Pasti na ptáky' and 'Z odpadu k pokladu'. Revenue streams likely include donations and grants, supported by clear donation calls on the website. The target customers are educational institutions, environmental organizations, and environmentally conscious individuals. Growth indicators include active campaigns, online educational resources, and social media engagement. Partnerships with entities like Save-Elephants and the Czech Environmental Inspection enhance credibility. The organization maintains a transparent and professional online presence, reinforcing its market position in the environmental non-profit sector.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a mature security posture with HTTPS enforced and integration of Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect forms from abuse. Cookie consent is managed via a compliant opt-in banner, indicating GDPR awareness. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests room for improvement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. The site does not publish an incident response policy or security contact channels, which could be enhanced to improve readiness. Overall, the security culture appears responsible but could benefit from formalized policies and additional technical controls.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
  2. Establish and publish an incident response policy with clear security contact channels (e.g., security@ or abuse@ email).
  3. Regularly update WordPress core, themes, and plugins to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  4. Enhance website accessibility to meet WCAG standards for broader user inclusivity.
  5. Maintain transparency by updating privacy and cookie policies as regulations evolve and ensure clear data retention disclosures.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress CMS platform using Elementor for page building, which provides flexibility and ease of content management. It employs common web technologies including jQuery and integrates Google services such as reCAPTCHA and Analytics for security and traffic monitoring. Performance optimization is addressed via Autoptimize and lazy loading of images. The hosting provider is WEDOS, a reputable Czech hosting company. The site is mobile optimized with responsive design and good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data. Technical risks include potential plugin vulnerabilities and missing security headers, which should be addressed to reduce attack surface and improve compliance.
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.
