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. 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

  2. Email security

    SPF, DKIM and DMARC stop others sending email that looks like it comes from your domain, a common route to phishing and invoice fraud.

    • Critical

      No email authentication configured

      Domain is vulnerable to email spoofing

      What to do: Implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC immediately

  3. Network security

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

    • Critical

      Critical Service Exposed: MySQL

      Port 3306 (MySQL) is publicly accessible - MySQL - Database server

      What to do: Immediately restrict access to MySQL using firewall or VPN

      • NIS2 21(2)(e)
      • IR 2024/2690 6.7.2(f): Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690, Annex point 6.7.2(f): Network security
      • NIST CM-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 CM-7: Least Functionality
      • NIST SC-7: NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 SC-7: Boundary Protection
  4. 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"

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 · found on this site
  • 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 organization holds a strong market position as the national representative body for the Czech brewing industry, with a medium-sized footprint and a clear focus on advocacy, cultural promotion, and member services. Its partnerships include membership in The Brewers of Europe and collaboration with various industry stakeholders. The business model centers on industry coordination rather than direct commercial sales. The website supports this with projects, member showcases, and news updates. The presence of multiple external links to member breweries and related organizations indicates a broad partnership ecosystem. The site’s content and structure suggest a mature organization with stable operations and a focus on maintaining industry standards and cultural heritage.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate to strong security posture with HTTPS enforced and a CSRF token implemented, which protects against common web vulnerabilities. The cookie consent mechanism is comprehensive and GDPR compliant, reflecting good privacy practices. However, the absence of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, or Strict-Transport-Security reduces the overall security score. No incident response or security policy pages are published, which could improve transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the provided content. The use of Google Tag Manager introduces moderate tracking but is managed with user consent. Overall, the security posture is good but could be enhanced with additional headers and published policies.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy page outlining security practices and incident response procedures.
  2. Implement and configure security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and Strict-Transport-Security to enhance protection.
  3. Add a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting of security issues.
  4. Expand accessibility features to improve compliance with standards and user inclusivity.
  5. Maintain transparency by publishing terms of service and privacy policies beyond cookie usage.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses modern front-end technologies including Alpine.js for reactive UI components and Swiper.js for carousels, indicating a contemporary and interactive design approach. Google Tag Manager is used for analytics and marketing tracking, integrated asynchronously to avoid blocking page load. The site is mobile-optimized with responsive design and good navigation clarity. Performance is moderate, with deferred script loading and lazy image loading observed. No CMS or hosting provider information was detected. The site uses a CSRF token for security. There is room for improvement in accessibility and SEO optimization by adding ARIA attributes and more structured metadata. Overall, the technical implementation is solid with opportunities for modernization and enhanced security hardening.
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.
