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

Cerea, a.s. is a Czech-based company operating primarily in the agricultural and energy sectors, offering products such as bagged mixtures, agro services, coal, and briquettes. It is a member of the AGROFERT group, which supports its market position and credibility. The website is professionally designed using Drupal 10 CMS, with good mobile optimization and accessibility features. It provides clear navigation and relevant content targeted at agricultural businesses and related industries. The company maintains a presence on LinkedIn and Facebook, enhancing its business credibility. From a technical perspective, the website employs modern technologies and enforces HTTPS, ensuring secure communication. Cookie consent mechanisms are implemented in compliance with GDPR, reflecting a strong privacy posture. However, the absence of explicit security headers and published security policies indicates room for improvement in security best practices. The lack of WHOIS data is a notable gap, reducing domain trustworthiness despite the legitimate business content. Overall, the security posture is solid but could be enhanced by adding security headers, incident response information, and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. The website's content safety rating is safe, with no adult or questionable content detected. The domain's WHOIS data absence is a concern but does not currently impact the operational legitimacy of the business. Strategic recommendations include improving transparency around security policies and enhancing domain registration visibility to boost trust.

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.

Priority findings

6 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 Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

    • High

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

Cerea, a.s. operates in a competitive agricultural and energy commodities market within the Czech Republic. Its affiliation with AGROFERT, a major conglomerate, provides strategic advantages including resource access and brand recognition. The business model focuses on B2B and B2C sales of agricultural products and services, targeting farmers, agricultural enterprises, and energy consumers. The company offers a diversified portfolio including agrochemical products, seeds, fertilizers, and coal, supported by service offerings such as vehicle servicing and laboratory testing. The website content and social media presence indicate active engagement with customers and stakeholders. Growth indicators include recent news about equipment acquisitions and successful agricultural events. The partnership ecosystem includes AGROFERT and related subsidiaries, enhancing market reach and operational capabilities.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to strong security posture with HTTPS enforced and a cookie consent mechanism aligned with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of key security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options suggests potential vulnerabilities to common web attacks like clickjacking or content injection. No evidence of exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries was found in the HTML content. The lack of a published security policy or incident response contact limits transparency and readiness for security incidents. No vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file was detected, which could hinder responsible vulnerability reporting. Overall, the security maturity is adequate for the business type but could be improved by adopting additional security best practices and enhancing incident response capabilities.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security.
  2. Develop and make publicly available a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  3. Establish a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Enhance WHOIS domain registration information visibility to improve domain trust and legitimacy perception.
  5. Regularly audit and update website technologies and dependencies to mitigate risks from outdated or vulnerable components.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on Drupal 10 CMS, leveraging modern web technologies including JavaScript and CSS for dynamic content and styling. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and includes accessibility features such as skip links and ARIA roles. Performance is moderate, with no major issues detected in the HTML content. SEO is supported by canonical links, meta viewport tags, and structured navigation menus. The cookie consent implementation is robust, supporting multiple categories and user preferences. Hosting provider details are not explicitly available from the content. No third-party analytics or tracking scripts were detected, indicating minimal user tracking. The technical infrastructure supports a professional and user-friendly experience 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.
