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

9 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 Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

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

    • 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

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…

  2. GDPR outside view

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

    • 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

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 website occupies a niche position in the Serbian media landscape, focusing on media freedom and press issues. It benefits from its association with the Slavko Ćuruvija Foundation, lending credibility and support. The business model is non-profit, relying on public awareness and possibly donations or grants. The content is regularly updated, indicating active engagement with current media topics. The site leverages social media channels for outreach and uses marketing tools like Mailchimp for newsletters. Its partnership ecosystem includes the founding foundation and references to other media outlets. Growth indicators include consistent content publication and social media presence. Strategic observations suggest the site could enhance its security posture and expand contact information transparency to improve trust further.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enabled and a cookie consent banner indicating GDPR awareness. However, the absence of DNSSEC and lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy or X-Frame-Options represent gaps that could be exploited. No explicit security policies or incident response contacts are published, which limits transparency in handling security incidents. The use of multiple third-party scripts and plugins necessitates regular vulnerability assessments to prevent exploitation. Overall, while no critical vulnerabilities are evident, there is room for improvement in security best practices and compliance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Enable DNSSEC on the domain to enhance DNS security and prevent spoofing.
  2. Implement HTTP security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  3. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response contact information on the website.
  4. Regularly audit and update all plugins and third-party scripts to mitigate vulnerabilities.
  5. Increase transparency by providing direct company contact emails and phone numbers for support and inquiries.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a WordPress CMS platform, utilizing a variety of plugins such as Yoast SEO, Contact Form 7, Mailchimp integration, and social sharing tools. It employs jQuery and Masonry for dynamic content layout and infinite scrolling for user experience enhancement. The site loads external resources from trusted domains like Google Fonts and Facebook. Performance is moderate with good mobile optimization and basic accessibility features. SEO is well addressed with meta tags, Open Graph, and JSON-LD structured data. Hosting is provided by Adriahost, a regional hosting provider. The technical stack is modern but could benefit from enhanced security configurations and performance optimizations.
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.
