The company serves a diverse audience including financial institutions, issuers, investors, and government bodies, positioning itself as a key infrastructure entity in the Slovak financial market. The website reflects a professional and well-structured digital presence, supporting multiple languages and offering portals for LEI services and participant access. Technically, the website is built on a modern WordPress platform utilizing Elementor for page building and Yoast SEO for search optimization. It employs standard security measures such as HTTPS, Google reCAPTCHA for form protection, and cookie consent mechanisms, indicating a mature digital infrastructure.

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.

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

CDCP SR holds a strategic position as Slovakia's central securities depository, operating within the finance and government sectors. Its business model revolves around providing essential infrastructure services for securities management, including account verification, corporate event handling, and legal documentation support. The company targets financial institutions, issuers, and investors, offering digital portals to streamline interactions. The presence of LEI services and participant portals indicates a comprehensive service ecosystem. The website's content and structure suggest a medium-sized enterprise with consistent branding and a focus on regulatory compliance. Partnerships are primarily internal or service-related, with no external subsidiaries or parent companies identified.

Security posture

The website maintains a solid security posture with mandatory HTTPS encryption, use of Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate automated abuse, and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure programs indicates gaps in transparency and preparedness. Security headers are not explicitly confirmed, suggesting potential areas for enhancement. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected. Overall, the security maturity is moderate, suitable for the business type but improvable through formalized policies and enhanced header configurations.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response information on the website to improve transparency and stakeholder trust.
  2. Implement and verify security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to strengthen defense-in-depth.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting and proactive security management.
  4. Regularly audit and update all plugins, themes, and libraries to mitigate risks from outdated components.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to improve compliance and user experience for all visitors.

Notes

The website is built on WordPress 6.8.3 with Elementor and Yoast SEO plugins, indicating a modern and widely supported CMS environment. It uses jQuery 3.7.1 and Google Analytics for tracking. The site is mobile responsive with good SEO metadata including Open Graph and JSON-LD structured data for enhanced search engine visibility. Performance is moderate, with no major issues detected in the HTML structure or scripts. The presence of Google reCAPTCHA enhances form security. Hosting provider details are not explicit, but the site uses external CDNs for common libraries. Opportunities exist to improve security headers and accessibility compliance to reduce technical 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.
